I understand that the SS came with the Veloce engine, but was never successful on-track as it was simply too porky, in contrast to the lighter SZ. Is there anything else other than the body shape that makes it truly stand out from other Giuliettas?
Let me state up front for anyone that has missed it....I am not an Alfa purist; I don't particularly care for the original SS body style. I much prefer what Tom Zat did to it both in styling and speed. On one of the threads on the bb, I believe, is my recollection of riding with him in one of the original ones in Ohio. An experience of a lifetime; never to be forgotten.
