First Alfa Romeo to win in American FIA competition

This Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce made history at the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1957 when it became the first Alfa Romeo to win its class in FIA competition on American soil.

Despite its age, the car “presents in largely original, as-raced condition,” retaining its cut-down windshield, trunk filling cap, grille-mounted Lucas rally lights, vinyl tonneau cover, floor mats and a spare wheel wearing a vintage Goodyear Blue Streak racing tire. It also has its original 1290cc engine.

Love historic details? Check the glove box and you’ll find untouched 1957 and 1958 Sebring inspection stickers.
