1951 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500

Weighing 1400 kg, the 105 horsepower Pinin Farina Cabriolet is capable of 165 kph.

By the mid-1950's Alfa Romeo had almost fully shifted its focus from expensive, low production coachbuilt cars such as the 6C 2500 to more affordable mass produced vehicles.

The 6C 2500 SS displayed here had been in the Detroit area since the 1950's, in the ownership of a single family, it was recently acquired by the present owners. The car has been driven very sparingly, so the current mileage of 19,000 kms is believed to be original. Cosmetic restoration of the paint, wire wheels, top and carpets was undertaken in the early 90's, but the car retains a patina reflective of the care it has been given during its lifetime.
