& Dorothy Nethercutt Most Elegant Closed Car
I broke the rules and bought a Touring-bodied car because this Alfa Romeo is very special," said owner David Sydorick of Beverly Hills
"It is a piece of automotive architecture mounted on a Grand Prix chassis that has technology that was top of the line for prewar cars
It's beautiful from top to bottom."
The polished prizewinner competed against over 200 cars from 17 countries and 31 states on the 18th fairway of Pebble Beach overlooking the Pacific Ocean
but instead it is one of elegance since its inception in 1950
"This Alfa Romeo 8C 2.9 has all that one would wish for in a car—speed
"The Touring styling is simply magical
and to top it off it makes all the right noises!"
