CARS AS A MIRROR OF SOCIETY

An exceptional exhibition organised by the Legnago Veteran Car Club is showcasing the styles and evolution of luxury and sportsmanship in the USA and Italy between the 60s and 70s.

The design of a car allows us to understand the taste and aspirations of society at a given moment in history. At the 2018 Verona Legend Cars, the Legnago Veteran Car Club is putting together an exceptional exhibition which compares Italy and the USA in the 60s and 70s. Through cars, we'll see how luxury and sportsmanship were interpreted on both sides of the Atlantic, highlighting differences and reciprocate influences. On display, there will be a 1977 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL MARK V - the exclusive Luxury Car Coupé of the Lincoln Ford division - and a 1965 FIAT 2300 LUSSO manufactured by FIAT, which is inspired by the US canons of the previous decade. Also side by side are two sports cars, each one exceptional in its own way, designed to impress the young people of their respective time and country: a 1966 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE and a 1.3 2a series LANCIA FULVIA COUPE’.
