Vandenbrink Design is a Netherlands-based automotive design and coachbuilding company, founded in 2006 by Michiel van den Brink and Robert Koumans. == Cars == In 2006, Van den Brink introduced a plan to design and build a special coachbuilt Ferrari.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Michiel van den Brink interview )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The fine art of Coachbuilding )〕 The artist impression of a modern-day GTO, to be based on the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano was well received by the press,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Top 10 coachbuilt supercars )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Is this the world's sexiest Ferrari? )〕 prompting Vandenbrink Design to develop and build the design.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vandenbrink 599 GTO will be built but not by Ferrari )〕 Soon after, the company announced it was working on two other Ferrari-based designs, the Vandenbrink GT Convertible, based on the 599 GTB Fiorano and a shooting-brake version of the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti. Currently the company is working on the "Vandenbrink GTO", a tribute to the 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO, based on the underpinnings of the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano. Aluminium coachbuilding will be performed by Hietbrink Coachbuilding (Haaksbergen, Netherlands).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vandenbrink 599 GTO )〕 In July 2009, Vandenbrink announced development of the Fra Mauro, a carbon fiber-bodied coach apparently based on the Spyker C8 Spyder chassis and featuring a mid-engine 4.2 litre V8 layout. Production numbers have yet to be determined.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Current Projects )〕 In April 2010, the time came for Van den Brink to continue his business as an independent designer, leaving Vandenbrink Design BV to his business partner Robert Koumans, who will continue the development of the GTO, while Michiel will create new designs under the "Atelier Michiel van den Brink" name. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vandenbrink Design」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
