1955 Alfa Romeo Model 1900 SS, Zagato (SSZ) -- November 27, 2017


We visited the Blackhawk Museum in June, 2013 to drool over their collection of classic autos.

The 1955 Alfa Romeo Model 1900 SS, Zagato (SSZ) had a lightweight body from coachbuilder Zagato.  SS stood for Super Sprint.  I like the front end.

1939 Alfa Romeo Berlinetta Aerodinamica - May 31, 2011


San Francisco's Academy of Art University has a fine collection of classic cars available for study by its design students. They shared the collection at the 2010 San Francisco International Auto Show. Here is the remarkable 1939 Alfa Romeo 6c 2500 ss Berlinetta Aerodinamica. It doesn't look like a 1939 automobile. DSCN6384.

It rained again today.
