A visionary artist whose work was decades ahead of its time, Bucci crafted fiberglass fantasies that drew widespread media recognition and praise from the highest echelons of the custom-car world. Two of his Space Age vehicles are featured in Everard\u2019s auction: the 1962 car known as \u201cLa Shabbla,\u201d which was the rage of the 1964 New York World\u2019s Fair; and \u201cLa Trieste,\u201d which created mob scenes and was pulled over by curious Polizia when Bucci drove it around Italy in 1967.<\/p>\n<p>Even today, more than half a century after they were fabricated, John Bucci\u2019s unconventional automotive prototypes look futuristic enough to be parked in the Jetsons\u2019 garage. \u201cThey are already attracting the interest of both new and long-time fans of avant-garde and automotive art who know and respect the legacy of John Bucci,\u201d said Everard Auctions co-owner Amanda Everard.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>John Bucci was a dreamer even in his youth. He grew up in Italy, in an area that became part of Yugoslavia after World War II. After immigrating to Chicago in 1959, he worked at Radio Flyer, Zenith and Sun Electric. But his true gift was being able to visualize the fantastical, then create it out of fiberglass. He became renowned for his spectacular replicas of the Trevi Fountain, which he supplied to trade shows and Italian festivals around the country.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_675691\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-675691\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20-LA-SHABBLA_007.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-675691\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20-LA-SHABBLA_007.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20-LA-SHABBLA_007.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20-LA-SHABBLA_007-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20-LA-SHABBLA_007-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20-LA-SHABBLA_007-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20-LA-SHABBLA_007-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20-LA-SHABBLA_007-293x165.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/20-LA-SHABBLA_007-1400x788.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-675691\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u2018La Shabbla,\u2019 concept car created circa 1962, fiberglass body and Fiat chassis with Abarth 750 engine, exhibited at the 1964 New York World\u2019s Fair in the Cavalcade of Custom Cars.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Around 1962, Bucci found himself without sufficient funds to buy a car, so he did what came naturally \u2013 he made one, a car of the future that he named &#8220;La Shabbla,&#8221; or &#8220;Sword.&#8221; Its futuristic fiberglass body sits on a Fiat chassis with an Abarth 750 engine. It features retractable headlights, a working steering wheel, electrically powered hood cover, oscilloscope, and blue woven leather seats. The car was displayed at the Calvacade of Custom Cars at the 1964 World&#8217;s Fair in New York City where it was mobbed by fairgoers and even caught the eye of singer Paul Anka, who hopped inside for a photo opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>In as-is condition, La Shabbla is a show car that can run off AC\/DC current when in static display mode. On AC current, it can perform limited operations that include opening the hood and extending\/retracting the steering wheel and passenger windscreen. The engine turns freely when rotated by hand. The pre-sale estimate is $50,000-$75,000.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_675690\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-675690\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/HISTORIC-PHOTO-3-Bucci-in-Trieste-stopped-by-polizia-in-Italy.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-675690\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/HISTORIC-PHOTO-3-Bucci-in-Trieste-stopped-by-polizia-in-Italy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"980\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/HISTORIC-PHOTO-3-Bucci-in-Trieste-stopped-by-polizia-in-Italy.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/HISTORIC-PHOTO-3-Bucci-in-Trieste-stopped-by-polizia-in-Italy-300x196.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/HISTORIC-PHOTO-3-Bucci-in-Trieste-stopped-by-polizia-in-Italy-1024x669.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/HISTORIC-PHOTO-3-Bucci-in-Trieste-stopped-by-polizia-in-Italy-100x65.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/HISTORIC-PHOTO-3-Bucci-in-Trieste-stopped-by-polizia-in-Italy-770x503.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/HISTORIC-PHOTO-3-Bucci-in-Trieste-stopped-by-polizia-in-Italy-293x191.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/HISTORIC-PHOTO-3-Bucci-in-Trieste-stopped-by-polizia-in-Italy-1400x915.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-675690\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">In 1967, John Bucci (Italian\/American, 1935-2019) drove around Italy in his concept car \u2018La Trieste,\u2019 attracting mobs of curious, car-crazy citizens.

Bucci created it with a five-layer fiberglass body that received five coats of paint. Its windshield and side windows are made of polycarbonate, and the door-locking mechanism appears to be electromagnetic. In 1967, Bucci took it on an extensive tour of Europe, then exhibited it around the Midwestern United States. A May 1972 article in the <em>Chicago Sun-Times<\/em> Business News section described La Trieste as resembling \u201ca land-bound missile.\u201d It went on to say: \u201c\u2026even if it didn\u2019t run \u2013 which it does very well \u2013 it would have to be considered somewhat of a milestone in auto styling.\u201d Currently in fair condition with an engine that does not turn, La Trieste will be offered at auction with an $8,000-$12,000 estimate.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_675692\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-675692\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/31-TRIESTE.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-675692\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/31-TRIESTE.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/31-TRIESTE.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/31-TRIESTE-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/31-TRIESTE-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/31-TRIESTE-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/31-TRIESTE-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/31-TRIESTE-293x165.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/31-TRIESTE-1400x788.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-675692\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u2018La Trieste,\u2019 1960s fiberglass concept car with Porsche 4-cylinder 1600cc super engine that hits top speed of 160mph.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Everard Auctions will present Back to the Future: Concept Cars and Artwork from the Estate of John Bucci in an online-only auction conducted through LiveAuctioneers.
