1960 | Maserati Tipo 61 “Birdcage”
Hand-crafted from aluminium by Gentilini & Allegretti
Maserati engineer Giulio Alfieri designed a new chassis with a lattice frame of small-diameter tubing (10 to 15mm), which was lightweight and rigid (weighted just under 70 pounds). The chassis was initially called the Type 60, later receiving the nickname the 'Birdcage' in reference to its tubed chassis. Voluptuous factory bodywork was mounted over the space-frame chassis by Alfieri, and the engine installed at a 45-degree angle to lower height.
