VW Bianco S. >
For many years it wasn’t possible or economically feasible to import cars into Brazil due to laws designed to bolster the growth of a local automotive industry. This resulted in many small automakers popping up to build unusual sports cars for the local market.
The Bianco S was first shown to the world at the Sao Paulo International Motor Show in 1976. It’s a low-slung sports car based on the VW Beetle chassis, with a fiberglass body, and some additional steel reinforcement at the sides and front for safety.
The VW Beetle had become ubiquitous in Brazil thanks to the fact that Volkswagen had established a factory in the country in 1953 to build the Beetle for the local South American market.
Due to strict Brazilian import restrictions the local sports car scene was essentially starved of cars, this led to the formation of a few small local manufacturers who often used VW Beetle running gear to keep costs down.
The Bianco S was sold from 1976 until 1979 when the company shut down, at one point almost two dozen a week were being built, with 320 ultimately manufactured.
Ottorino`Toni´Bianco had left his native Venice - Italy, to move to Brazil in the years after WWII seeking opportunity in the fast-growing South American country. It would become his home, and he would have a significant impact on the country’s formative racing and sports car scenes.
