This is the story of a particular Alfa Romeo model range that was the car to beat in competition, in races such as Targa Florio and the Mille Miglia. The 6c enjoyed a lengthy reign at the top, with the crack drivers of the day running private entries if they were unable to secure a works drive, rather than seeking a works ride elsewhere, such was the capability of the car. The racing success ensured continued improvement in the road versions and the customers for the chassis, would seek out the finest coachbuilders to complement the package. This complete marque/model history takes you through; the design stage with Vittorio Jano and his 6C project, the characteristics and technicalities of the model’s engine derivatives, the sporting history and achievements, as well as production figures and body designs of the customer road cars. In fact every facet of this remarkable model is fully covered. The informative text is supported by superb period photos to make this the highly sought after title that it is.The copy for sale has an ex libris sticker on the front board and also the cover has been laminated.
