TZ for sale in New York

I saw Autosport Design's ad in the latest SCM with a TZ for sale, and it is still on their website (www.autosportdesigns.com). Is this the same car listed on an earlier thread for sale in Europe?

1963 ALFA ROMEO TZ1 ZAGATO COUPE
Click for photos


--Red with Black interior, Restored, Exceptional History from New…

This Alfa TZ1, Serial # 750 003 comes with photos and documentation from Le Mans 1964, Nurburgring 1000 Km 1964, Tour de France 1964, Cevennes 1964, Tour de Corse 1964, this TZ1 still has its original Italian title and originals plates as well as modern Belgium documents, FIVA documents and FIA documents.

After the 1964 season this TZ1 was sent back to Alfa Romeo (Balocco factory race track facility) where it was totally dismantled. Late 1964-65 it was put into storage in Milano where it stayed for the next 35 years. It was discovered in 2002 in original condition throughout. It must be the most original TZ one in existence as it still has its original body, bonnet, doors, etc. The original engine was not with the car but soon found and reunited with its original body. This TZ1 was inspected by the FIA and its provenance has been verified prior to restoration.

This TZ1 is supplied with its original engine although it is not currently installed. The original engine has been rebuilt to original 160 hp specifications with zero miles since rebuild, it has never been installed in the car. It was rebuilt by Ellegi Motori in Italy. The engine currently in the car has recently been rebuilt.

This TZ1 is currently owned by an Autosport Designs, Inc. client, it is being offered for sale due to his wanting to slim down his currently collection. This is a rare opportunity to own what may be the finest Alfa Romeo TZ1 available with excellent history and certainly eligible for some of the finest vintage automobile events I the world.

Sounds like it - I'm just about around the corner from them and may just drop in for a test drive so I can flog the hell out of it . Not to be repetative, before I bought mine, I stopped in there to look at a GTV and when the guy brought me downstairs into the garage, I said "Is this what it looks like when you die and go to heaven?" All sorts of exotic stuff was down there.
