It's not exactly motor racing, but on behalf of a friend & fellow Mini enthusiast, I'm asking for your wisdom on Italian industrialist, Ferdinando Innocenti - probably best known for the Lambretta scooter and building Minis under licence in Italy. Basically what we're looking for is when he passed away. Sometime in 1966 apparently, but an exact date would be of great assistance. Any other snippets of info would be great too.
Many thanks and it's over to you guys...
