Alfa Romeo 1900 DISCO VOLANTE SPIDER

The Alfa Romeo Disco Volante (Flying Saucer) was a concept car series with production starting from 1952. The cars were racing car concepts with mechanics from the Alfa Romeo 1900 and made in collaboration with Milan based coachbuilder Touring. The engine was a slighly tuned 1900 engine (1997cc) now producing 158 bhp. The car was very streamlined, windtunnel tested, and the body was built on a tubular space frame.

Three different body styles was made: one open seater and two different coupé styles. There was even a 3.5 L version made for Juan Manuel Fangio. None of these cars never ended as a really successful racing car though they were tried a couple of times one victory was taken at the Gran Premio Supercortemaggiore.
