Peter Monteverdi had some connection with Ferrari before making his
own Swiss eponymous cars in the 1950s. After producing his own F1 car
(of which I have no memory), I think he took over the Onyx team. If I
recall correctly, he died at the end of the 1990s (1998?).

Whilst working on a film some 20 years ago I spent several of the
breaks fiddling with the Chrysler engine of one of the musician's
Monteverdis - in quite a few respects highly reminiscent of the
Bristol and, as one might expect from something made in Switzerland,
beautiful attention to detail and execution. It was interesting to
compare it with my then 408.
