Alfa Romeo 164 Pro Car

To set the mood, know I’m not adding drama or 

taking my time or writing in any particularly broken way

for any other reason other than: I can.

This is my email newsletter, my website, and my effort. I’m the team that put it together and who can tear it apart.

That there is consistent grammar at all, full sentences, and deliberate Oxford Commas when I want to is — tooting my own horn — something you cannot, will not, find elsewhere. 

How terribly confident, when,

what,

anywhere else this is just a couple of sentences and photos from press archives and a bare minimum social tweet?

Thirty minutes, tops.

leave the really great story for someone else to write 

SO

Here we are again. Another weird unicorn car.

Imagine being Alfa Romeo in 1988. In hindsight, kinda screwed, if I’m being honest. 

I have a more complete “story” on the “car” below for members, but what you need to remember from this interaction is that

some artisans choose to do whateverthefucktheywant.

F1 parts under an Alfa Romeo 164 sedan shape, for a racing series that never did exist?

Surely, there is no reason for this except that — get this — Alfa Romeo decided to make it. 

One was built. It is Alfa Romeo’s to keep: a template of perfection.

Race car, road car, because it could.
