Alfa Romeo 8C Spider

Alfa Romeo will celebrate its 99th birthday at the Goodwood “Festival of Speed” by inviting three particular models, some coming from the Arese Museum in Turin: the first 8C Spider in its definitive design, the P2 Gran Premio of 1924 (first winner of the Automobile World Championships in 1925) and the 6C 3000 CM, led to second place by Fangio in the Mille Miglia of 1953.

Two prototypes, designed by Bertone, will not be missing, and have been entered in the Cartier Style et Luxe design concours show in the category of “Serious Wedge - Studies in Angular Sports Car Design 1965-1980”: the Carabo of 1968, equipped with an original hydraulic mechanism (seagull-wing style) to open the doors, and the Navajo of 1978.
