LMX SIREX - SPORTIVA D'AUTORE
'The LMX Sirex is a grand touring car produced in Italy in 1969, upon completion of two years of studies, conceived as a concentrate of innovative technical solutions starting from a chassis made by engineer Liprandi on a sports car project by Eng. Gioachino Colombo.
With a very light fiberglass bodywork, created by the extraordinary master of design Franco Scaglione, who gave life to a style that testifies the evolution from the curved lines of the Alfa Romeo "33 stradale" to the exasperatedly taut lines, characteristics of the later Intermeccanica indra.
A real crossing point with very different stylistic solutions, but with a single unmistakable imprinting.
The car was built by Eurostyle of Turin led by Ivo Barison, an industrial body shop that set up prototypes/one-offs and grand touring cars at the request of a wealthy clientele, who required exclusive products that could only be made through high-level craftsmanship.
In those years in Turin an extraordinary concentration of companies for the production of motor vehicles was created, with laboratories, design studios and designers characterized by quality standards at the highest levels in the world' (by LMX Sirex Historical Register).
An ultra-rare car, inexplicably forgotten, that in these pages will be rediscovered through unpublished documents and images, the result of over 40 years of research by the author, Renato Montalbano, LMX Sirex collector.
