The Sprint Zagato is the ultimate sporting development of Alfa Romeo's legendary Giulietta. Featuring Zagato's signature lightweight bodywork and specially prepared engines, these cars were an immediate success in the world's greatest races. Amazingly fast (over 120 Mph for a 1300cc !), much lighter than any other Giulietta variant, the SZ2 was also more powerful thanks to its high-compression engine, more aggressive cams and a careful tuning. The cars were quite expensive due to the 300 hours it took Zagato to build the bodies, based on Alfa Romeo chassis. Just over 200 were built, the last 44 of which were a shortened long tail design "Coda Tronca" example.

Sold new in Italy to Count and driver Ottorino VOLONTERIO, known for having raced a Maserati 250F, this car took part in many races of the Italian championship from 1962 to 1967.

and was sold to Anthony and Lulu WANG who also kept the car for 17 years until 2007 where it change hand in the US
The previous owner bought it in 2011, and entered it in a few competitions like the Tour Auto. It has finally been sold to the current owner, a true connoisseur in 2015
