The Alfa Romeo coupe pictured,
was the first post World War II
Alfa Romeo sports car to
go into series production. Alfa Romeo commissioned custom coachbuilder
Nuccio Bertone to design a small grand touring coupe. Upon his
death in 1997, the New York Times obituary pictured a white Sprint
like this and said that the Giulietta Sprint was Bertone's first
great success. The Giulietta series of cars began in 1954 with
the Sprint. A Pininfarina designed Spider (roadster) followed.
Other limited production sports models included the Sprint Speciale
and very rare Sprint Zagatos.
- The car pictured is a Sprint
Normal 101 series, the second series. For some reason, known
only to Alfa, the first series was designated 750. Normal and
Veloce models were available in Sprints and Spiders, the Veloce's
having performance modifications to the engine. Click on Alfa
