Rallying from the brink of bankruptcy, Italy's oldest car-design company is racking up new contracts and looking to open an office in Detroit for the first time in its 98-year history, accorting to The Detroit Free Press.

Stile Bertone, which created landmark designs like the Lamborghini Miura and Countach, Fiat Dino, Volvo 780 and Citroën BX, is back on its feet and hungry to grow, according to Roland Martin, Bertone's business development director.
