It has spent many of the Italian Supercar classics of their time, entertainment or esteemed lights: made another Countach, Ferrari extracted its great heritage for the icona series, and the neo -Baghanis seems a lot like ancient paganism and all kinds of companies that have the wonderful Lansia manufactured again. But Alpha Romeo is absent from that list. Certainly, Volcolic will make you a beautiful small young, if there is nothing more strange than it. Step forward, then, PPW, And R33 – “A greeting to the legendary breath in 1967, Romeo Tipo 33 Stradal.”
60 years ago, only 11 Tipo 33s was made, which may likely explain the reason for some time to get a celebration in the twenty -first century – it would always have a really dedicated person to get the project out of the land. There will be fewer than these for Tipo 33, for sure, of something made in larger numbers.
