Alfa Romeo Racing and Rally Car Cars: Illustrated History Books & Guides

Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale: The Courage to Dream

NEW

In 1967, Alfa Romeo introduced the 33 Stradale, widely regarded as one of the most beautiful cars ever made. In 2023, the brand set out to create its successor, building only thirty-three cars that honour and update the original.

Over more than 110 years, Alfa Romeo has built cars praised for design and performance. Henry Ford said he tipped his hat when an Alfa Romeo passed by. Enzo Ferrari, who once drove Alfa Romeo cars, remarked that "at Alfa Romeo they know how to sew gloves for flies."

This book recounts the car's history and its bold redesign through the voices of its creators: from the CEO who launched the project, to the design director who reshaped its lines, and the engineers who delivered its performance.
Readers gain access to the design studio, follow early sketches and prototype development, and discover the final cars, each tailored for collectors worldwide and sold at a high price before production began.

Alfa Romeo T33/TT/3 - The remarkable history of 115.72.002 (Exceptional Cars)

The Alfa Romeo T33/TT/3 was developed by the Autodelta racing department for the 1972 World Championship for Makes. While it was difficult to beat Ferrari, the car frequently finished on the podium. A major highlight was the Targa Florio road race in Sicily, where Helmut Marko finished in second place, nearly winning the event.

Marko drove chassis 115.72.002, which became the most successful of all T33/TT/3 models. After its time with the factory team, the car competed in races and hillclimbs in Greece. It eventually returned to Europe and is still driven today in historic racing events.

This book features a wide collection of historical and modern images, many of which have never been seen before. It also includes detailed color photographs that highlight the car's technical features.
