who was mechanically minded, and always addressed the needs of his
cars. He was a true enthusiast and conscientious car owner who
purchased the car from a friend out of Colorado.Alfa Romeo boasted
success in the Targa Florio, the Stella Alpina and the Coupe des
Alpes, claiming the slogan The Family Car That Wins Races. The

coupes of its era, and even after more than 60 years from its
debut, it is still many connoisseurs' favorite choice for grand
turismo type drives and rallies. These elegant coach-built cars are
considered to be one of the most versatile and event eligible
Italian sports cars in this price range.This Alfa Romeo 1900C SS
