1957 Alfa Romeo Sprint Speciale Proto-Type #00001 For Sale	1957 Alfa Romeo Sprint Speciale Proto-Type #00001 For Sale 1957 Alfa Romeo Sprint Speciale Proto-Type #00001 For Sale The Sprint Speciale proto-type shown at the Salone di Torino in October of 1957 did not have an Alfa Romeo shield in its grille, and no front bumper to interrupt air flow. According to Donald Hughes and Vito Witting DaPrato in Alfa Romeo Veloce- The racing Giuliettas, the SS initials originally stood for for Sprint Sprinta, meaning â€˜Spertunedâ€™. By the time the first prototype, this car, number 00001, had arrived in Turin, it was labled as a Giulietta Speciale, not yet a Sprint Speciale. A bertone shield was set to the right of the script on the fender as it would be in production cars, but above the model name instead of below it. Judging from photos of the show it appears the decision to go with Sprint Speciale had already been made as the display stand the car sits on is labled with a â€ Alfa Romeo S.S.â€ This is chassis number 00001 and was the 1957 Giulietta Speciale Turin Showcar. After being displayed in Turin, Alfa shed its original contours and shortened the front section, thus making the car the proto-type for the low nose Sprint Speciales. This hand crafted aluminum bodied Alfa is an amazing piece of Alfa Romeo history. Only the first three including this car were made of aluminum, all others were made of steel. The interior of 00001 is black/gray, simple and in keeping with a car intended more for weekend racing and less a Gran Turismo. This car comes from one of the worlds most respected private collections, and from an amazingly knowledgeable collector. It has not been seen in many years and has only now been made available. This car and its history can be seen in the October 2008 edition of Alfa Owner magazine.

Alfa Romeo has been making automobiles since 1906. The company was acquired by Fiat in 1986.

Alfa Romeo History

The Alfa Romeo name dates back to 1906 and the Darraq brand cars built in France. Allesandro Darraq wanted to supply the Italian market with taxis, so he imported Darraq cars from France. In 1909 his garage was taken over by the Italian company ALFA (Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili). In 1911, Italian industrialist Nicola Romeo took over ALFA and in 1918 that company reorganized into Alfa Romeo S.p.A.

A young Enzo Ferrari joined Alfa Romeo in 1920 as a test driver, and the marque began to establish its reputation through its great racing record during the 1920's and 1930's.

1910 - The company is founded as Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili.

1959 - Alfa Rome signs an agreement to furnish chassis platforms and engines to Zagato for production of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta SZ which features a shorter wheelbase and a 100 bhp engine. Alfa displays the car at the Geneva Motor Show in 1960.

1963 - Alfa Romeo Giulietta SZ production ends after 169 round-tail and 44 square-tail cars were built.

1989 - At the Geneva Motor Show Alfa Romeo debuts the prototype Alfa SZ which is the first in the design that eventually becomes the Alfa Spider.

1991 - At the Geneva Motor Show the Alfa Proteo prototype is displayed. The Proteo is based on the Alfa 164 sedan with the V6 engine tuned to 260 bhp and featuring both four-wheel drive and steering. The body styling is very close to that which will be used on the Alfa Spider which will be designed three years later.

1995 - The new Alfa Spider goes on sale.
