AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
GENERAL
For sale: a stunning 1954 Alfa Romeo 1900 Super Sprint, finished in classic Alfa Rosso livery. This car is also eligible for the Mille Miglia!
The 1900 series was the first unibody Alfa Romeo after World War II and marked a new direction for the brand. With its combination of elegant design, sporty performance, and technical refinement, this series set the tone for all subsequent Alfas.
The Super Sprint was the sportiest version of the model and was distinguished by its powerful engine and refined handling.
TECHNOLOGY & PERFORMANCE
Under the hood lies the renowned 2.0-liter four-cylinder twin-cam engine, good for approximately 115 hp – an impressive output for its time. The car is equipped with a five-speed manual transmission, which provides a direct and engaging driving experience.
The rear-wheel drive, independent front suspension, and drum brakes give the car the authentic, balanced driving feel that made Alfa Romeo famous in the 1950s. This results in smooth performance and a lively character typical of Italian sports cars of that period.
BODYWORK & DESIGN
The 1900 Super Sprint was available as an elegant coupé, built by renowned Italian coachbuilders such as Touring and Pininfarina. These versions were known for their lightweight, streamlined aluminum bodywork and refined finish.
The example offered here is finished in a beautiful red paint job that perfectly accentuates the sporty lines of the design. The proportions are classic Alfa: compact, muscular, and elegantly balanced.
INTERIOR
The interior exudes the atmosphere of a true Gran Turismo. The cockpit is designed with the driver at the center, featuring clear gauges and a classic instrument layout. The upholstery, finish, and details reflect the Italian craftsmanship and timeless style that make this generation of Alfa Romeos so beloved.
HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE
The Alfa Romeo 1900 Super Sprint is considered one of the most sought-after Alfas of the 1950s. It was a car that combined luxury with performance, becoming the precursor to later GT models like the Giulietta Sprint and the 2600 Sprint.
This 1900SSC is also eligible for the Mille Miglia. Its rarity, elegance, and historical value make it a sought-after collector's item for Italian classic car enthusiasts.
CONCLUSION
An original 1954 Alfa Romeo 1900 Super Sprint offers not only driving pleasure but also a tangible piece of automotive history. This coupé embodies everything Alfa Romeo stands for: design, passion, and technology.
A unique opportunity to own an authentic and rare Alfa Romeo Super Sprint – an icon of Italian elegance and sporting tradition.
We always recommend to come by and check out the car in real life, to get the best idea of the status of the car.
