I didn't know the Abarth 2000 Sport was a thing until I found this one for sale. Way too cool not to share.
(And I hope it goes to a good home.)

Not just a rare race car, but one with race and hillclimb victories, too. Meet this Abarth 2000 Sport Tipo SE010, also known as the “Quattro Fari” (four headlights).
One of just 25 examples originally built by Abarth to meet homologation rules (though more were planned due to popular demand), this 2000 Sport is billed as having scored a first-in-class finish in the 1970 Zeltweg 1000 Kilometres and first-place finishes at the Bolzano Mendola and Alcamo hillclimbs.
Later, in 1971, the Abarth competed in the Tour de Belgique. While the car won the first five stages, it had to retire from the rally following a mechanical failure.
According to the seller, the 2000 Sport recently underwent a “careful conservative restoration " that preserved the Tour de Belgique livery it currently wears.
Additionally, the Abarth is noted to be FIVA certified and is “fully restored and fully functional.”
Find this 1968 Abarth 2000 Sport Tipo SE 010 listed for sale from Ruote da Sogno, with an asking price of €690,000 (approximately $780,000 USD).
