1952 Siata 300 BC - a rare, lightweight Italian sports car built between 1952 and 1954 by SIAT (Societa Italiano Auto Trasformazioni Accessori) - an aftermarket company that produced parts to “hot rod” Fiats, founded in 1926 by Giorgio Ambrosini - an aspiring racer driver.  The 300 BC was a two-seat vehicle with various engine configurations from 750 cc Crosley four-cylinder engines to 1100 cc Fiat engines. Even with these tiny engines, the BC could achieve a maximum speeds of 100+ mph.  The Siata 300 BC enjoyed a long racing history - from 1951 into the mid-sixties. These races were mainly in the United States, but some also in Europe. Famous races include Watkins Glen, Sebring 12h, Mille Miglia, and many others.  Around 50 examples were built.
