The Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles will reopen on March 25 with a new exhibition designed to celebrate Pininfarina. Housed in the Armand Hammer Foundation Gallery, “The Aesthetic of Motoring: 90 Years of Pininfarina” will convey the value and evolution of the Italian car designer and coachbuilder through the display of four key models representing its 90-year history.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The cars on display are the 1931 Cadillac Model452A Boattail Roadster, the first Pininfarina body mounted on a non-Italian chassis; a 1947 Cisitalia 202 Coupe, widely regarded as one of the most beautiful cars ever made; a 1966 Dino Berlinetta 206 GT prototype, the first mid-engine Ferrari; and a 2019 Automobili Pininfarina ‘Battista’, which is an early styling model of the luxury hypercar. A 1967 Ferrari 365P Berlinetta Speciale “Tre Posti”, the last vehicle bodied by Pininfarina for a private client, will replace the 1966 Dino Berlinetta 206 GT prototype in April 2021.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
