  Pietro Frua - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pietro Frua was born in Turin, the fourth son of Angela, a tailor, and Carlo Frua, an employee of Fiat, the centre of coachbuilding in northern Italy.
The “Frua line” was synonymous with the good taste of a single man. He followed each car’s practical realization to the last detail of the fully functional one-offs and prototypes, often driving them to their presentation at the motor shows in Europe.
In the 1970s Frua reduced the frequency of his presentations, but in the sixth decade of his life he still demonstrated his good taste and craftsmanship to the younger ones who already had taken their role in the industrial process.

 Rolls-Royce Phantom VI Frua Drophead Coupé
Frua thus had intended to accentuate the horizontal lines and the styling corresponded to that of the mighty rectangular headlamps as well as to that of the chromeframes on fog-lamps and air-intakes.
For aesthetical reasons Frua had seen to have the entwined R-R logos at the car's tail right and left side and in addition he had specified a unique matrix to be made which allowed to press an R-R logo of correct size into the trim rails which ran along the car's flanks.
But Frua's strive for perfection and extreme care in conjunction with the problems caused by the manufacturer's attitude to discuss all aspects of even minor details and worsened by the slow provision of vital and less vital parts resulted in the car's completion being delayed again and again.
