1953 ALFA ROMEO 1900C SPRINT

Presented at the 1950 Paris Motor Show, the Alfa Romeo 1900 was designed by Orazio Satta, a one-time understudy to 1930s Grand Prix engineer Wilfredo Ricart. The marques first assembly line-built model, the 1900 utilized unitary construction that specifically allowed coachbuilders to re-body it. Advertised as the family car that wins races, the 1900 was underpinned by an independent front suspension, live rear axle, and a sprightly twin-cam, inline four-cylinder engine. Finished in silver over a striking two-tone interior, this 1953 Alfa Romeo 1900C Sprint is one of 650 first-series examples built from 19511953 featuring the C for corto or short (wheelbase) chassis and elegant 2+2 coupe bodywork from Carrozzeria Touring. 

 
Sold new in Torino, with a well-documented chain of owners in its native Italy, this 1900C Sprint was sold to Dutch car collector Dr. Paul F. Schouwenburg circa 2009, and acquired by well-known Florida-based collector Leo Schigiel in 2019. Understood to have been maintained in largely well-preserved, original condition, this car was subsequently sent to specialist MCW van der Meij for sympathetic mechanical and cosmetic work with invoices and correspondence on file. A participant in the 2019 Pebble Beach Concours dElegance Postwar Preservation Class, this car is accompanied by its tool kit, jack, knock-off hammer, and a plethora of historical documentation, including the original Italian libretto and FIVA Identity Card. Displaying a lovely unrestored patina, this 1900C Sprint is eligible for an array of driving and concours events, including the Mille Miglia, and is ready to be enjoyed by its next caretaker.
