1968 Alfa Romeo Tipo 33/2 Autodelta team car s/n 75033*022 has a well documented history as an Autodelta team car with races at Le Mans, Monza, the Nürburgring, Brands Hatch, Mugello, The Targa Florio and multiple other races. After 25 years in untouched and unmolested storage, Alfa 33/2 s/n 75033*022 has just completed a frame–up restoration by one of the best shops in America.

While still undergoing restoration, the rolling chassis was shown at the Concorso d’Italia at Meadow Brook held during July 2004 where it won the award for “Outstanding Race Car”—and drove across the podium to accept the award. In August 2005 the just completed 75033*022 was shown at the 4th Annual Concorso d’Italia at Meadowbrook and at the 55th Annual Concours d’Elegance at Pebble Beach and took Best in Class at both events!

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a proven concours winner and a significant page from Alfa Romeo’s racing heritage. Leave 75033*022 as–is and win your class in just about any concours in the world; use 75033*022 for that automotive museum you always wanted to open (or add it to your existing museum), most of the other remaining T33 TT (Telaio Tubulare)s are already in museums; or do what all Alfa Romeo T33 TTs were built for: take it racing. With a little on–the–track sorting, 75033*022 should be very competitive, just like a few of its sisters that are currently terrorizing the historic racing circuit. Better yet, do all three.
