Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Sport cabriolet by Ghia 1947
2017 InterClassics - Maastricht (NL)

Only 4 cars were made with this body style on the 2.5 Litre 6 cylinder chassis provided by Alfa Romeo. It was designed by Mario Felice Boano for coachbuilder Ghia.
He took a remarkably modernist approach with this car during those early post-war years, abandoning traditional stylistic elements like fenders with wings and protruding headlights. Most notable is the mere suggestion of traditional winged fenders by a simple crease in the aluminum bodywork, tapering along the side of the car from the front down over the rear wheels to just above the rear bumper.
