Worth Knowing

According to the Alfa Romeo Certificate of Origin, this matching-numbers example was built on 17 December 1953 and first delivered just days later, on 29 December, to Sozzago, a small town near Novara in Italy.

The original exterior colour has been faithfully retained. Both interior and exterior received a conservative restoration by Toppino Restyling, a specialist based in Cuneo. The intention being to keep the car true to its period character while addressing age-related wear rather than over-restoring it.
