One of the three spyders Casaro built expressly for the 1000miglia in 1928. A creation based on the type 221 chassis, VIII series, with a 310cm wheelbase.

Do you know if some of those three cars survived?? MPC
It's hard to say it, i saw a similar Lambda at a fair , 2/3 years ago, but it was too badly restored to understand if it was one one the three or a period replica or a spyder rebuild from an original 221 chassis. A car like this should have been kept in a museum for years to make sure that no one has tampered with.
This is one of the first Casaro adv, when he wasn't still a real coachbuilder. He proposed, as like as Bertone did, a baloon. In particular the baloon was a fixed head, to transform a torpedo in a sedan.
