History

Vittorino Viotti founded the firm in Turin in 1921 as Viotti & Tolfo with his friend Torquato Tolfo, and bought out Tolfo's share in 1930. It began in a small workshop on Via Ilarione Petitti and later had a larger factory on Corso Stupinigi, which Allied raids destroyed in January 1941. Production then moved to a smaller Fiat-owned facility on Corso Bramante. Viotti bodied Fiat, Lancia, Alfa Romeo, Ansaldo, Itala and Maserati chassis and built the first batch of Lancia Aurelia B20 GT coupes. The company ceased operations in 1964.
