Not a Guilia SS Teapot, special bodied?? Alfa specialist needed. Any other TVRs there? Haven't seen my MK 1 since it went to Italy 2 years ago.

Apparently, the last lap of the FJ race on Sunday saw TNF member Jan Biekens have a very nasty accident in his Stanguellini. It appears he hit a kerb and barrel-rolled. He was thrown clear of the car but miraculously escaped without any broken bones.

Yes, it's Angelo de Angelis, but I'm not aware of any relation with the late Elio. It could be, but De Angelis is quite a common surname in Italy.

I've found it listed as a Giulietta SS. Actually, the front end looks somewhat different from your ordinary SS...
Sadly, no other TVR at the track!

Alfa Romeo Giulia SS - ??? [/quote]

Giulietta SS -Sprint Speziale The standard car carried a lot of chrome ware at the front, triple piece bumpers and grill aperture which change the frontal appearance significantly. The prominent fluting? over the leading edge of the front wheelarch is the styling giveaway.

I still don't think it looks quite correctly proportioned for a Guilia SS. I had one as a road car 1967/70 (bought from Brian Classic) until it literally rusted away. I was a regular at my local body shop (Geoff Bailey's in Timperley), we kept cutting out the rot which bubbled through all over, wings, doors, roof, boot. When the outriggers began to disintegrate I part exed it against a new Hillman Hunter estate to haul the kids around.

Maybe this picture taken from a slightly different angle might help...
