|
|
Just because I had to, in the "Dreamracers Quiz" I included an Alfa question
Quote: |
How did Alfa Romeo hide their 1.5l super charged Alfettas from prying eyes during the second World War?
a) The walled them up in a cheese factory
b) Disguised them as road cars
c) Disassembled them and hid the indivdual components |
The quiz is open to all and you dont have to be a Dreamracers member to enter either, and there is £30 worth of Duke vouchers up for grabs and they are all multi-guess answers and a bit of fun too.
Good luck chaps and chapettes... |

When Germany invaded Northern Italy after the fall of Mussolini, the secretary of the Milan Auto Club towed the Alfetta's in the dead of night to the safety of an abandoned cheese factory.
Effectively, it was these old Alfetta's which put Alfa back into racing after the war because all the developmental cars had been destroyed. |
