The Appeal
The Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint, the last inline 6-cylinder produced by Alfa Romeo, is a grand tourer that represents the top of Alfa's range. This particular 2600 Sprint has been owned by the same family since 1972, passing from son to father, and carries with it a rich history.
Its original black leather interior and the addition of 3 Weber 45 carburettors (with the original Solex carburettors included) should garner this Italian classic plenty of interest from any enthusiast.
