1933 Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Corto Spider (R) PUR SANG
French registration title
The Alfa Romeo 8C 2300, the masterpiece of Italian engineer Vittorio Jano, was one of the first racing cars (Monza version) to be civilised and fitted with haute-couture bodywork, so that it could be offered to a few wealthy customers for use ‘in town’| the Spider Touring is undoubtedly one of the finest examples of this highly confidential production
The Argentinian firm Pur Sang is now world-renowned for the quality of its replicas, mainly of Bugatti Grand Prix cars, which are very close to the original model | combining craftsmanship with a high degree of engineering, it has also worked on the contemporary Alfa Romeo masterpiece of the Bugatti Grand Prix: the 8 C
While most Pur Sang 8C replicas are Monza (racing version, with or without wings), the Argentinian craftsmen also marketed a few rare Touring-inspired Spider Cortos, including the example that illustrates these pages, enabling lucky enthusiasts to afford an Alfa 8C 2300 short-chassis for a fraction of the price of a genuine one, now worth several million euros...
The car that illustrates these pages is one of the extremely rare 8C 2300 Pur Sangs sold new in France| made reliable by its owner, a demanding enthusiast, it has since covered several thousand kilometres, much to the delight of its driver and the enthusiasts who have been lucky enough to see it on the road
Very difficult, if not impossible, to register as a collector’s item in France, our car is offered for sale accompanied by a 1963 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint registration document (Saloon, 4-seater, 15 CV)| this tool room copy, as our British friends say, will delight enthusiasts of high-performance, extra-ordinary cars
(No MOT)
