It is a car built entirely in Milan: the Portello factory and the Touring body shop were in fact so close that it was possible to walk from one to the other in half an hour. Yet, the original black license plate is that of Turin, the (once) automobile capital of Italy. In a few… Read More Black plate: 1953 Alfa Romeo 1900C Sprint by Touring
Zagato has always built very particular and easily recognizable cars, however – perhaps an unpopular opinion – few of them can be defined as “beautiful” according to our tastes. Of course, this is an opinion (and we all know what people say about opinions) but the point is that Zagato’s construction philosophy was not devoted… Read More Trademark blue: 1965 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint by Zagato
There is little that can be done now: in the world of classic cars it is practically impossible to find a Sprint Veloce 750E for sale without “Alleggerita” (ligtweight) being added to its name. We don’t know exactly how this fashion was born, it was certainly a gimmick by the sellers to add charm to… Read More Say my name: 1956 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce
The fact that most Italian classic cars are red is nothing more than a myth built over the years, a myth that has a precise origin. The myth is linked to the fact that until the 1960s, road cars that participated in official races had to have colors established by regulations: red for the Italians,… Read More Humphreys’ car: 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint
We ask ourselves that too. We wonder if this could really be one of only 12 Giulietta Sprints produced in 1954 and, to tell the truth, it would be not the first we see. One is in fact owned by the well-known Italian collector Corrado Lopresto, but it is not the only one we are… Read More 1 of 12: 1954 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint
This car has been in the possession of the current owner for 23 years who says he has never driven it in the rain all this time – not surprising as we would have done the same. It was sold new in Switzerland and then imported to the USA where, in 2015, it received a… Read More Bayou burgundy: 1962 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint
It is an Alfa Romeo, it is red and it has a special body made by Zagato, so it is very rare. You can’t ask for much more. For heaven’s sake, if you want you could ask that the price of a car like this was lower, but we have all learned that those who… Read More Special red: 1966 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint by Zagato
Sold new and aged in the same place, this could be the short story of this Giulietta Sprint. It is in fact a specimen which, although it is not rare in itself (in relative terms, of course) has the rarity of having been sold new in Rome in 1965, and has remained in the Italian… Read More Roman citizen: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint
If you want to buy a Giulia Sprint GT at the price of a GT Junior, here is the car for you. In fact, we understand well that, in the eyes of a layman, or at least in the eyes of those who know these cars only superficially, it is very easy to confuse a… Read More Grown up Junior: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT
Few, very few words from the seller to describe these two relatives separated by ten years of age but united by conditions. Probably the scarcity of words is simply due to the clarity with which the two cars appear in the photo: both need a restoration from top to bottom without excluding any part, even… Read More Desert inn: 1959 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint + 1969 Alfa Romeo 1750 Berlina
