- Production notes
- Fiatfuoriserie explicitly includes Castagna among coachbuilders of Fiat 2800 variants in the 1938–42 programme. The legacy 1946 date is not compatible with that production chronology and is removed. Postwar 2800 specials documented by Carrozzeria.it were Ellena-bodied. Exact Castagna body/year and count remain open. NO_AUTO_INHERIT.
