  Vehicle history: This car was added to the Giardinetta register on January 25th 2011 with only a VIN number. It was assumed that the vehicle was awaiting restoration, but that was purely an assumption not based on facts. The car was first registered in the Netherlands on June 27th 1978. Basically that was a long time from its production date which are according to the Alfa Romeo archives on December 6th 1977. The vehicle was advertised in the German car magazine Autobild no. 45 of 1999. The German gentleman who meticulously restored the AS*5001636*904B bought this vehicle and exported it to Germany. Unfortunately the condition of the car was too poor to save it and after removing useful parts the car was scrapped.
