Festa Della Repubblica 2024

On Sunday the 26th of May, 40 x IMSMC cars were presented at Club Marconi, Bossley Park, as a contribution to the Festa Della Repubblica. In total, 71 members brought family and friends making up significant numbers.

EVERY ONE of our cars looked FANTASTIC. They attracted huge crowds as visitors to our display, created a mood of ITALIANISSIMO - a significant contribution to all things Italian on the day.

This year we had an unveiling of a beautiful 1965 Fiat 1100 Riviera, presented by Giuseppe Lecce. A real credit to him. Well done Giuseppe! This car was elected by the Marconi Executive, giving him  wonderful recognition of his beautiful creation. Gerardo Mediati, was also given recognition of his beautifully presented 1957 FIAT 600 Multipla, as was Natale Stillone, with his recently acquired 1969 FIAT ( AutoBianchi) Giardiniera.

This year we also honoured Lino De Iulio, who we lost in January. Lino always took part in this iconic yearly event, since our clubs first appearance in 2008 and was certainly fundamental in developing the strong association that exists between Club Marconi and IMSMC. Oriana De Iulio was presented a trophy, in Lino's honour.

A huge thankyou to Oriana De Iulio, Maria & Carmel Losinno, Sara Chiapetta, for their time devoted in the day to the club stall.
