I looked at this tag again and cannot find any link between the "Woestman Special" and an Alfa 308 other than the claim of the eBay seller. In fact, I find some parts of the claim illogical: Why would Woestman modify an Alfa 308 that was "one of only four built that year" to the point that it would (or could) no longer be called an Alfa? I just can't get over having a hard time believing that somebody would buy a complete, brand-new race car just to take it apart -- or that the factory would have allowed such a thing during Mussolini's reign.
