That dosn't leave much. It looks about 1947/49 in date - is it a 6C2500 ?

You never answered if it is a 6C or if Zagato is the coachbuilder?

It is Alfa Romeo Tipo 8C-2300 Corto Spider Corsa supercharged chassis # 2111027; originally a Scuderia Ferrari Zagato Spider which was 2nd in the 1932 24 hrs of Spa-Francorchamps. It later had a closed Zagato body and then the open style seen in the puzzle picture. The car went to the UK before WW II and was on sale see advertisement.

PJ - 685 - Who will be 1st?
« Reply #23 on: September 24, 2015, 05:21:34 AM »
This car is very well known, but not in this form.

1 point for the puzzler who tells me wich car it was before (exact model)
&
1 point for the coachbuilder who realized this body (I do not know but have a slight idea...)

I won't lock it with just make and model, this very car is pretty known...if you think you recognize it, be sure you have the right car.
