1932 Alfa Romeo Monza

This car is something else. In it's day it was the fastest road racing car bar none. It has an all aluminmun dual over head cam, supercharged, hemi straight 8 engine which are impressive attributes by today's standards. While employed at Epifani Restorations in Berkeley, CA I was involved in the restoration of this car. It took five of us approx. two years to complete. In fact it was done twice! The first time the customer wanted it red and when we completed it, it looked all wrong (trust me it really didn't look right, so much so that I actually didn't like this car at all and would have taken my boss' 1934 Ford cabriolet over this thing anyday). He brought it back and I competely disassembled it down to the frame, had every piece repainted Alfa's racing color, burgundy (which, to my surprise, won me over on it), reassmbled it once more and showed it two days later at the concours d'elegance in Pebble Beach, CA.
Oh, to be rich...
