*Alfa Romeo Giulietta SZ: The Unbeatable Alfa of the 1960s
*
Let’s rewind to 1961. You’re standing at the starting line of the Mille Miglia. You glance over and see a compact, muscular coupé with sleek, wind-cheating lines. And then you spot that unmistakable badge on the nose: Alfa Romeo. But this isn’t just any Alfa, this is the kind that earns its place among the greatest racing machines Italy ever unleashed on the world.

At Gallery Aaldering, we’re proud to have an exceptional example in our collection, built in 1961 and restored by none other than Alfaholics Ltd., the gold standard when it comes to building outstanding Alfa Romeos that bridge the gap between heritage and modern driving pleasure. This car hasn’t just been polished for a showroom. It’s been restored and prepped for rallies and historic events. But true to Alfaholics style, it’s been brought back to life with passion, precision, and a dedication to reliving 1961 in all its glory.


*From Casablanca to Alfaholics
*
Originally delivered new in Casablanca, Morocco—a story in itself—this Giulietta SZ eventually found its way to the United Kingdom, where it underwent a complete Alfaholics restoration and was made rally-ready. The engine? Fully rebuilt by Alfaholics as well, meaning it runs exactly how an SZ should—tight, eager, and ready to soar through the rev range without breaking a sweat.


*What makes the SZ so special?
*
– Only 200 units ever built. Each handcrafted. Each bodied in aluminum.
– Weighing just around 785 kilograms—you feel every corner with precision and agility.
– Designed by Zagato, making it not just a car but rolling art. The craftsmanship in its coachwork is unmistakable. You’ll find yourself staring, again and again.


*Condition? Simply Impeccable
*
– The bodywork is stunning, showcasing the trademark Zagato nose and elegant roofline.
– The paint? Authentic and timeless—true to the era it was born in.
– The interior? Spartan compared to today’s racers, but exactly what a purist would want.
– Mechanically? Outstanding. Turn the key, hit the road, and smile all the way to the checkered flag.

Thanks to a full restoration by one of the most respected names in the game, what you see here is a rare Alfa Romeo in outstanding condition—beautiful bodywork, a quality finish, and all the correct period details. It drives like it should: sharp, engaging, and utterly rewarding. Gear changes, clutch feel, steering response—everything is raw, honest, and thrilling. Just as an Alfa should be.
