Why it matters

The three Torino 380W cars of the 1969 'Misión Argentina' took an Argentine-built saloon to the 84-hour Marathon de la Route at the Nürburgring under Fangio's direction. Car no. 3 led for 56 hours and completed more laps than the winners, finishing fourth overall and first in class.

Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.

History

Built at IKA-Renault's Santa Isabel plant in Córdoba, the cars were prepared by Oreste Berta as technical director, with Juan Manuel Fangio as sports director. They ran the August 1969 84 Hours of the Nürburgring against Porsche, Mercedes and Lancia. Two cars retired, but no. 3 (Rodríguez Larreta, Copello, Franco) completed 334 laps against the winners' 319; a broken exhaust, a brake-pad change and a noise penalty dropped it to fourth overall.
