Coupe Colli
Chassis
1361.00126.
This was one of three Alfa Romeos entered in
the 1953 24 Hours of Le Mans race. All three
of them were out of the race before the
halfway marque with technical difficulties.
It was the last Works entry for the coupes
and two of the cars were handed to
coachbuilders to be turned into show cars.
The ex-Karl Kling / Fritz Riess car was
handed to Boano and rebodied for Argentinian
president Juan Peron. |

Spider Zagato Chassis 1361.00125-1955. Started out as one of the original 1953 Coupes. Raced by Juan Manuel Fangio and Onofre Marimon at Le Mans. Afterward it was sold to Joakim Bonnier who crashed the car and had a Zagato Coupe body fitted. It was raced this way through to 1956 in Swedish livery. At some point the roof was removed, possibly due to cockpit cooling. |

750 Competizione
Bouwjaar:
1955
|
|
In Marcello
Minerbi's book
Alfa
Romeo-Zagato SZ
TZ, Giuseppe
Busso talks
about how the
750 Competizione
came about: "This
concept first
developed
through
collaboration
between Alfa
Romeo and
Abarth-Boano on
a box-type sheet
metal chassis
conceived by
Abarth. The car
was built as a
roadster and
tested, but due
to technical
problems which
came to light
during the
tests, Alfa
gradually lost
interest in it." Initially, the idea was to produce 50 cars, but as Busso points out technical problems haulted further development. The car was powered by a long stroke Inline-4 that wasn't too far off Alfa's pre-war designs. Eventually Alfa Romeo did produce the SZ as a purpose-built racecar, but this used a completely different philosophy, having Giulietta components in a tube-frame chassis. |

Chassis
1361.00128.
Featured is the
6C 3000 CM that
finished second
at the Mille
Miglia in the
hands of Fangio.
It served as a
spare chassis
before being
sold to Pinin
Farina to serve
as a show car
chassis. The
Turinese
coachbuilder
fitted no fewer
than four
different bodies
on the Alfa
Romeo chassis
between 1956 and
1960. At the
Turin show in
1956, it was
debuted as the
"Super Flow"
coupe and
subsequently at
Paris as the
"Super Flow II".
In 1959 a spyder
body was fitted
and '00128' was
presented as the
"Spyder Super
Sport". In 1960 the final body was crafted for the Alfa Romeo chassis. The spyder body was discarded and replaced by an airy coupe, dubbed the "Coupe Super Sport Speziale", again shown at Geneva. In this configuration, the ex-Fangio machine has survived. For many years it was displayed in Peter Kaus' excellent Rosso Bianco Museum where it is pictured. The Pinin Farina bodied 6C 3000 CM has not resurfaced since the entire collection was sold in 2005. |

Canguro BertoneBouwjaar:

|
At the beginning of the 1960’s the Alfa Romeo marque was one of the most popular brands on the market, and in 1964 Bertone was given the opportunity to create two extremely interesting prototypes. One of these, the Alfa Romeo Canguro, stood out as the more ambitious and innovative project. It was a racing interpretation of the Giulia TZ, with a tubular chassis, and is a clear demonstration of the Bertone skill of reinterpreting the stylistic elements of any model. The Canguro was an advanced exercise in style for Bertone, completely freed from manufacturing constraints. Extremely smooth and sinuous, with its window surface completely worked into the body and perfectly at one with the panelling, the Canguro was an attention-grabber for its balanced lines and some completely innovative styling features, which even now still hold their ground. The Alfa Romeo Canguro is one example of the great school of Italian car design which shot to fame in the 1960’s. |
