That Alfa Sprint Zagato coda tronca (square tail) is a new one for me.... when was that racing ? In the UK ?


Also the gen 1 Camaro seems to be rolling a bit too much ... must be at higher speed thn I could muster...
Thanks, Bauble

During a recent visit to the palace, I hapened to mention my famous photographic collection, and she asked if I had any shots of pre-war Alfas. Apparently she is a big fan of the P2 types cars, but can't abide Lotus at all.

Funny old world ain't it?

Excellent stuff Bob. Great pics and a bit of humour tossed in.
The 308C (last photo in #5961) is simply beautiful.
