This car is the 1966 Trans-Am Champion. Sponsored by Knauz Continental, the Alfa Romeo Autodelta GTA with Horst Kwech and Gaston Andrey driving had three firsts, two seconds and a fourth place in seven races, accumulating more points than any other drivers or teams. It was the 1966 ARRC (American Road Race of Champions) B-Sedan Champion for the most outstanding ARRC class win with 22 classes present. In 1967, this car was the B-Sedan Central Division champion with John Martino driving. In the 1968 Trans-Am series, this car scored two second place finishes with Tom Blank and Del Taylor driving. The car was raced in SCCA club events by Bill Taylor through 1979, including a 1977 Trans-Am race in C-Sedan trim. It is presented here in its 1966 Trans-Am livery and running gear for the first time in 41 years after a year-long restoration of the original chassis by Roman Auto Prep.
