It is just as easy as it seems BUT I want to know Make, Model, Coachbuilder and year.
I won't lock it for uncomplete answers (except for the year or the correct bodystyle).
Enjoy!

(it's the 5th time I try to upload this #@x% puzzle!)

It's an early Alfa 6C 1500, but I'm not sure of the coachbuilder.  I'll try: 1925 Alfa Romeo 6C 1500 by James Young.

Not James Young but a 6C1500!

That's the same pic (I erased the model's name) but it was shown 1st time in 1926, according to my info.

Yes, that's the same picture that I have been working with.  My information says it was shown in 1925, but production didn't start until 1927.  I'll try: 1927 Alfa Romeo 6C 1500 limousine by Zagato.

Not Limousine and not by Zagato.
The correct year I have is not 1925 or 1927, but equidistant from both  ;D
Here's the unmodified pic:

OK: 1926 Alfa Romeo 6C 1500 by Castagna.  I think it is the long wheelbase chassis, which I have seen called "familiar".

Not Castagna and not Familiar.
The coachbuilder is not that known as Castagna, Touring or Zagato.
I think it's the 1st time it's featured on Autopuzzles.

:thumbsup: Almost there! It's a 1926 Alfa Romeo 6c 1500 Xxxxxxx Xxxxx by Carrozzeria Nord Italia.
Locked for you!
Hint: the 1st word is not what you can expect looking at that body, the 2nd one is quite common!

Nope, they are 2 very common words (Xxxxxxx Xxxxx) that should be used for an open car...the 2nd in particular can be used to any kind of car...in recent times Alfa Romeo (but not only AR) used it for Station Wagons too.

Torpedo Sport was the missing part.
Point for you!  :thumbsup:
