GarageScout Take

Special Pinin Farina cabriolet coachwork with sculpted hood lines and enveloping side grilles gives this October 1949 Super Sport a distinct body configuration, backed by a seven-year refurbishment that reached the engine, carburetors, wiring, instruments, rear axle, suspension, and steering.

Strengths

  • Built in October 1949, this is one of approximately 458 6C 2500 Super Sports produced between 1939 and 1951.
  • The refurbishment covered the body, interior, engine, carburetors, wiring harness, instruments, radiator, rear axle, suspension, and steering.
  • Its documented history includes delivery to Alfa Romeo racing driver Count Goffredo Zehender and subsequent California ownership from 1953.
  • Historical records include documents from Museo Storico Alfa Romeo, Automobilismo Storico Centro Documentazione, and the Italian Car Registry.

Watch For

  • The five-digit odometer shows approximately 250 miles, but true mileage is unknown.
  • The body received welding repairs to the rocker panels before being repainted during the refurbishment.
  • The car has not yet been titled in the US and is being sold on Norwegian registration; obtaining a US title may take months.
