Great to see this one Nicolas

I love Alfas but was not familiar with this model.  Not sure why since my first car was a 1973 Fiat, and then another Fiat and Alfa from slightly later.  But this car never came to the USA, so I missed it entirely.


It does have a great line, I agree, and eight cylinders -- wow!

I mean this in a spirit of fun, but it may be the Air King of Alfas -- pretty unusual in its details.  My first reaction was that the headlight covers and side louvres are extraneous add-ons, but they go well together.  Overall, it strikes me as a car with a great line that reflects it's slightly funky and fun era, with its drivers wearing bright colors and bell bottoms.  A far cry from most of the cars and SUVs we see today.

A car I always loved. For its line, its 8 Cylinders engine... A bit less for its dashboard, too 70's... But the rest is so " hummmm ".... Best, Nicolas ...  

One of the all-time greats!

Lovely car, next to the Bertone Coupe and the old GTV 6 2.5 one of the best Alfas ever IMHO.

Correct you are.
