Meffan’s Lancia/Ford special ‘Piccolo'.
"Clothed in a rolled aluminium body with both 200S and Lister ‘knobbly’ Jaguar attributes, Piccolo not only met the lightweight requirement at 485kg but also ranked high in the beauty race. Completed in 1964, it was swiftly sold to John Cooke in Johannesburg in order to finance my wedding. Piccolo then went with Jimmy Spillings to Rhodesia (Zimbabwe) before working its way back to SA, where it was rebodied in fibreglass as an Alfa special – those who frequented the Randburg area in the 1990s may well have seen it doing the rounds."
