Alfa Romeo 6C2300 N. 700552

This berlinetta aerodinamica by Pinin Farina was built on the "7th Series 6C" chassis which is better known as "6C2300" and this one was in Pescara tune. The first owner(?) named in my listing was the well-known racing driver Felice Bonetto. The Turin license plate was issued February of 1935 and the car was sold to Milan during May of 1937. After that ... ?? More research needed!

Edit: More research needed, indeed! We have some basic information and now need to spend some time and money if we wish to know more. I haven't done it yet myself. See Laurent's following message, the contents of which I should have noted already as I've certainly seen this before. The implication is that Bonetto may have been the second owner, perhaps by 1936? But, all needs confirmation and further checking.
