| The definitive version of the 3000 cc Grand Prix car and replacement for the 8C 2800 and 8C 3000 was the Tipo 8CM. Utilising the engine from the 8C 3000 and the frame concept and suspension system developed for the 4CM 1100 these developments came together in the single seater - the 8CM. Most 8CM's were sold to private customers and many variations were made around the basic design the most notable being Whitney Straight. Two sports versions were developed; one by Taruffi and a more elegant version by Straight which was used daily in London traffic!. | |||||
