    I was looking at a Fiat Dino site out of the UK and they had four pictures of the one off coupe made by Pininfarina with Giugiaro styling. Here's the URL

    24 hundred. Fiat Dino Pininfarina Speciale prototype



    The roofline reminds me of the short lived Barracuda notchback and it looks to me ike they just added a roof to an already existing Dino spyder. Anyway I have been trying to find pictures of it on websites that show it survived and is at the latest concours but to no avail, they are all old period shots. My own opinion-- it is about twice as good looking as the Bertone bodied coupe they went with and have never heard why Fiat would split production on the Dino v6 front engined cars--the roadster by Pininfarina, the coupe by Bertone.

    So looking for news of the coupe's survival--even if it hasn't been restored.

    There was an unwritten rule in that period: a quote to Pininfarina and a quote to Bertone.

    By the way, Giugiaro never designed for Pininfarina. The coupè prototype came from the pencil of Aldo Brovarone.
