Italian oddities and one-offs

[reallyloud]

Came across this photo the other day.

 

 

An Alfa 90 wagon complete with uno rear lamps. Lovely. Apparently one of 2 ever made. Got me searching for others....

 

 

 

 

And stumbled across this coupe. The tempra seems to be another one of those overlooked cars.

I'd be well keen for a 155 'sportwagon'.

yeah 155 suits the shape really really well..Tempra coupe for some reason reminds me of a cordoba wonder if there were hot models of those made (but saying that i spy a tiny red badge on the grille, and Turbo on the plate)

That reminds me.. I've been meaning to post this up for a while. Unfortunately this is the only photo I have but this was a restyled Alfa Romeo ARNA Ti by the "Studio Minardi". Clearly there is more to this that a quick rehash of the front end if the shape of the roof is anything to go by. The bonnet is much more steeply sloped than the stock ARNA too. I don't know much about Studio Minardi, other than it was run by Martino Minardi in Torino. Anyone else ever heard of this car?

I Spotted this at an Alfa Dealers in Cesanatico near Rimini, didn't know they did a Sud Wagon.

 

 

 

Seems to be our Mr Weasels dealers too!

155 Wagon, I often wondered if it would be possible to build one using a Fiat Tempra/Lancia Dedra wagon as they share a lot of the same underpinnings,I'm pretty sure they all share the same windscreen.

The Sud estate was a normal production model even though from the back it looks a bit home brewed. It was called an "Alfasud Giardinetta".

Sud wagon is super sexy. Though is it as devastatingly cool as it's only true rival - the Allegro Estate. Now there's a classy piece of wagon ass.

Now there's a classy piece of wagon ass.

I had a great bit of wagon ass action in Asda supermarket the other day.

 

While you wait for the spotted thread of that though he's an Alfa from Goodwood.

I used to have a Sud estate! A918SKHIt was pretty hellishly rotten, I repaired one side to a canny decent standard, but couldnt be arsed to do the other side so I gave it to some other loser.
