This is now SOLD. Search for similar items.

Description:


This car is considered one of the best prepared Alfas being vintage raced. The restoration and maintenence of this car has been done without
compromise. It is very fast and has been raced as a 1600 Veloce since being restored in 1993 and has several class and overall race wins in
its vintage race record. The car handles superbly and is very easy to drive fast and is also very relaxing for enduros. It currently has both
SVRA and SCCA log books. It has run with SVRA, VARAC, VSCCA (special events) and SCCA Volvo Historics. This car has been properly maintained
by "Glynn Motorsports". It has been nut-and-bolted between every event, resulting in only 2 DNF's in 9 years racing. The car has just undergone minor
restoration, following a "incident" that left some minor damage on the passenger door and a major engine failure!
