Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 – TRIBUTO SPORT 1931 for sale

The Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 was one of the most popular models produced by Alfa and had great success in competitions throughout the 1930s. Launched originally in 1929 as an evolution of the 6C 1500, winner of the Mille Miglia in 1928, the 6C 1750 had a highly successful sporting career, including a 1-2-3 finish at the Mille Miglia, with the winning car of Tazio Nuvolari achieving an average speed of over 100 km/h. The 6C 1750 also achieved top results at the Targa Florio, the Tourist Trophy, and the 24 Hours of Spa in the early 1930s. Production of the Sport and Super Sport lasted only two years, and many 6Cs were made with sport sedan and coupe bodywork. Our Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 was born in 1931 with Torpedo bodywork and was sold new in Milan to Mr. Besnati Aldo on 06/03/1935, who kept it with Mr. Rotondi of Milan, probably a dealer. On 30/03/1935, the car was resold to Mr. Guarnaschelli Luigi of Piacenza and changed its license plate to 5042-PC (the one it still retains today). After the war, specifically in 1949, the car changed bodywork, the new one made by Carrozzeria Ferranti of Rome, which is what the car still retains today. The car still has the original license plate, and the engine is still its original one. Over the years, the braking system has been replaced, converting it to hydraulic. In 2019, the vehicle underwent a major maintenance intervention, and the engine was completely overhauled by a specialist in Italy. In June 2024, the vehicle was serviced again to prepare it for the Vernasca Silver Flag. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly collectible car with a well-documented history and perhaps one of the most collectible Alfa Romeos that inspired Enzo Ferrari to create his legendary empire.
