Corsa Rossa: Home

Corsa Rossa is a loose affiliation of Italian car fanatics. There is no prestige or money involved in our club, we meet for the sheer joy and love of our Italian cars. We gather the second Tuesday each month around 7pm for a couple of hours of car talk. We often feature a guest speaker, picture show etc. Our gatherings are held at Winston's Eatery in Winston-Salem. Why don't you hop in your thoroughbred and join us there? On a regular basis we arrange events or show up at events arranged by other car clubs in the area. To show our great appreciation of cars made in other countries we host an annual European car show. We welcome all enthusiasts of Abarth, Alfa Romeo, ANSA, Bizzarini, Bugatti, Cisitalia, deTomaso, Dino, Ermini, Ferrari, Fiat, Iso, Isotta-Fraschini, Lamborghini, Lancia, Maserati, OSCA, Siata or other European marque to join our merry band of sports car nuts!

1936 Stainless Steel Ford

This is the 1936 Ford Coupe built for and owned by Allegheny Ludlum Steel. It was attending our open house and then was featured in a local parade with over 100 of our salaried, hourly and retired employees walking alongside. This is 1 of only 4 in existence and is the only one currently in running & roadworthy condition.

The car is in exceptional condition, with the interior and even the frame looking great. All 4 cars each had over 200,000 miles on them before they removed them from service. These cars were built for Allegheny as promotional and marketing projects. The top salesmen each year were given the honor of being able to drive them for one year.

The v-8 engine (max 85 hp) ran like a sewing machine and was surprisingly smooth and quiet. I thought this was a much better looking automobile than the Ford Thunderbird that visited us last year. FYI, the car was insured (we were told) for the trip to Louisville via covered trailer for 1.5 million dollars. We were also told that the dies were ruined by stamping the stainless car parts, making these the last of these cars ever produced.

More information of the history on these automobiles can be found at Allegheny Ludlum's website.
