Up to 1956, the rules and regulations for the Sports cars allowed to cover the passenger’s seat with a metal sheet and to use as a “windscreen” a small “windbreak” in front of the driver’s seat. Fifteen 750G cars were produced in this version, while two pieces were set up as two-seats cars, with the usual panoramic windscreen.

Power: 150 HP Gearbox: 5 speeds + Reverse At the end of the Seventies Autodelta, managed by engineer Carlo Chiti, developed an Alfetta GTV derived from the 2000 model, a very sports one, which saw the debut of a turbo on a street Alfa Romeo car. It could go faster than 205 km/h and just 4000 pieces were produced between 1979 and 1980, in order to make it possible to homologate those cars in the group 4, so that they could take part in rallies and in Tourism races. With a very rare black color, this car is among the few which have remained perfectly preserved in their original street state. It belongs to the Museo Dinamico of the Scuderia del Portello; it was shown at the fair in Padua at the Alfa Romeo stand in 2014 and in 2017 at the Autoexpò in Pistoia at the stand dedicated to Engineer Chiti. It was also included in important dynamic shows, such as the 50th Autodelta anniversary on the Monza circuit.

Power: 450 HP Gearbox: sequential with 6 ratios + Reverse Conceived by the German designer Wolfgang Egger, the 8C Competizione was produced by Alfa Romeo in collaboration with Maserati. Despite the success achieved, the FIAT and Alfa Romeo managements decided to produce it in a limited series of 500 pieces only in 2007; the spider model was produced in just 320 pieces in 2009. During an episode of Top Gear, the host Jeremy Clarkson gave his opinion about this car, saying that the 8C was simply the best car ever built. Scuderia del Portello founded in 2007 the 8C International Club with the aim to gather the owners of this extraordinary car in prestigious events. THE YOUNGTIMER COLLECTION “Gold Palmares” Alfa Romeo 155, 156,146 e 147 Group N and Super Produzione.

Born as a “heir” of the Giulietta, it was proposed with several versions of the body: coupé, cabriolet and spider. A few pieces were produced with “station vagon” body and they were named “Giulia Giardinetta”. A few pieces of this version were produced, realized by the independent coachbuilders Colli, Grazia, Giorgetti and Introzzi. A special van version used by Traffic Police, built by Carrozzeria Giorgetti, was produced in 324 pieces for the highway services and the emergency services. Since they are semi-artisanal works, the pieces produced by all the coachbuilders differ for several details. This Scuderia del Portello’s car in 2010 took part in the “Raid of Brotherwood and Peace” from Shanghai to Milan. CONTACTS www.scuderiadelportello.org | [email protected] | +39 339 7373298
