The 300BC was penned by Mario Revelli de Beaumont and produced by Nuccio Bertone. A total of around 50 were built, with either a Crosley 750-cc engine or their old friend Fiat offering up a 1,100-cc power plant.<\/p>\n<p>This particular 300BC was the third example built. It was sold through Otto Linton\u2019s Speedcraft Enterprises, in 1952, to Henry Wessells III. Wessells would go on to be a founding member of the Vintage Sports Car Club of America, as well as the U.S. Alfa Romeo Owners Club.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata214.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-578304\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata214.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata214.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata214-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata214-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata214-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata214-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata214-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata214-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata214-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a>Henry raced the car in 1952 at Giants Despair, Convair, Thompson and Watkins Glen, where he finished 2nd in class in the Queen Catherine Cup. This was the last time races would ever be run on the upstate New York street circuit.<\/p>\n<p>From there it passed through several subsequent owners until 1962, when it came into the hands of J.D. Igelheart, who raced the Siata in the newly formed VSCCA for many years. After that, the car went into hiding for a long stretch. When it came out of hiding, it was treated to a full-on, top-to-bottom restoration, with historical accuracy being the key focus. When a 94-year-old Otto Linton was reunited with the 300BC, at Sebring, he took the car out for a hot lap and came back saying, \u201cYou got it right\u2014everything is perfect!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata264.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-578305\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata264.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata264.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata264-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata264-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata264-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata264-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata264-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata264-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata264-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a>Seeing the car in pictures, you don\u2019t really get a true sense of size if there is nothing near it to relate to. If you did, you might see the tires head-on and realize they are no wider than early motorcycle tires. This is a tiny little jewel of a machine, a perfectly shaped car that will cut through the air, with no added appendages. This can\u2019t be your daily driver, what with its cut-down windscreen and no thought of a top, but there\u2019s still a lot of room for fun.<\/p>\n<p>Its competition specification Crosley four-cylinder engine will give you 55-hp at 5,300 rpm, while you run through the Siata\u2019s four forward gears. The front independent suspension will keep you going in the right direction, with the live axle in the rear making things interesting. Stopping power is there by the grace of four-wheel Alfin drums. Gauges are at a minimum\u2014fuel, oil pressure and a tach is all you get\u2026and maybe all you need.<\/p>\n<p>However, its diminutive size doesn\u2019t make it all that hard to get into. There\u2019s a decent amount of space for a normal-size human being, but you do feel oversized in this pint-sized racer. Everything falls right to hand, everything is right where it should be. And it all does what it is supposed to do. The steering and the shift linkage all feel very delicate, but not to the point where you feel you\u2019re going to break anything. The power plant may be undersized as well, but there is fun to be had in those precious few cubic centimeters of displacement. It might look like a three-quarter-sized Ferrari or Maserati that was left in the dryer too long on high heat, but this miniature Italian sports car is not small on excitement and fun. Good things do come in small packages.<\/p>\n<p>I want to thank new owners Jamie and Scott Cielewich for fitting me in between their small but mighty Siata\u2019s busy social schedule at the Radnor Hunt concours and its visit to the AACA museum.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wheelbase\u00a0 2027 millimeters<\/p>\n<p>Weight 720 kilograms<\/p>\n<p>Engine\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Crosley, 750-cc four-cylinder<\/p>\n<p>Carburetion Solex carburetor<\/p>\n<p>Output \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 55-hp at 5,300 rpm<\/p>\n<p>Gearbox\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 4-speed<\/p>\n<p>Brakes 4-wheel Alfin drum brakes<\/p>\n<p>Length 129 inches<\/p>\n<p>Width 53 inches (including wheel nuts)<\/p>\n<p>Height 43 inches (to top of windscreen)<\/p>\n<p>Wheelbase 83 inches<\/p>\n<p>Track 46 inches<\/p>\n<p><strong>Performance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Top Speed 95 mph; 0-60 mph N\/A; Average Fuel Consumption N\/A<\/p>\n<p><strong>Valuation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Price at Launch $2,400<\/p>\n<p>Excellent $280,000<\/p>\n<p>Good $216,000<\/p>\n<p>Average $168,000<\/p>\n<p>Poor $136,000<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata289.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-578306\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata289.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1026\" height=\"508\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata289.jpg 1026w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata289-300x149.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata289-1024x507.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata289-100x50.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata289-770x381.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Siata289-293x145.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1026px) 100vw, 1026px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Societa Italiana Auto Trasformazioni Accessori was an aftermarket company that produced parts to \u201chot rod\u201d Fiats.
