Regular Technical Passport with evidence of races and the car's history is available.
The car was modified from a street-legal Italian vehicle for the Barchetta Trophy in Magione in 2004 and began racing in 2005 with Team Cesarini. At that time, the car was in red and green colors with driver Wilson Cesarini, and it completed three races that were duly recorded in the Technical Passport. From 2006, it raced with Team Mariotti, with driver M. Mariotti, and completed 18 races between 2006 and 2007 with a gray livery. Starting from 2008, it continued with Team Mariotti, but with driver F. Senesi, participating in 10 races. From 2009 to 2010, it remained with Team Mariotti, but with driver Giretti Arduino, and competed in 15 races. In 2011, it participated in a race with driver Zunchen, still with Team Mariotti. Also in 2011, it competed in two races with driver Alunno Ricci, Team Mariotti. From 2012 to 2013, it raced five times with driver Biscotti Daniele, always with Team Mariotti, and in 2020, it raced with Giuseppe Morabito, Team Mora Racing.
The racetracks it has been to include Racalmuto in Agrigento, Magione, Imola, Vallelunga, Mores in Sardinia, and Adria.
The last service was carried out in 2020 before the race, and it has been idle since then.
Initially, only 18 Fiat Barchetta cars were produced worldwide. Fourteen were built for racing in the Barchetta Trophy, and an additional four were later built for hill climb races or to participate in special events. Building a Fiat Barchetta requires cutting the original car, and it requires the unique roll bar designed by Sergio Limone, the engineer who designed the Lancia Rally 037. This car will also be mentioned in Sergio Limone's upcoming autobiography. It is speculated that there may be remaining roll bars at the Magione racetrack, although there is no confirmed information at present. The most important aspect of the proposed car is the presence of a Technical Passport linked to the chassis, which testifies to its history and cannot be replicated.
The other existing cars in the world have raced in Spain, and one in Italy had the Gulf livery but with a closed hardtop, not open like this one.
