Chassis of one of Alfa Romeo’s most classic models. Designed by Vittorio Jano, one of Italy’s leading automotive engineers, this six-cylinder 1.5-litre was produced both for touring and as a sports car with Alfa’s typical twin overhead camshaft. A Roots blower was installed on 12 units as on this example, and a similarly supercharged version carried Giuseppe Campari and Giulio Ramponi to victory in the 1928 Mille Miglia.
