This Alfa Romeo Giulietta SZ is a fascinating classic sports car, modified in period to go ice racing and benefitting from significant recent mechanical work. One of just 169 “Coda Tonda” (round tail) cars built by Zagato for Alfa Romeo between 1960 and 1961.

According to the Certificato di Origine that we received from Centro Documentazione Alfa Romeo the car was delivered in September 1960 to Stockholm, Sweden in the current color combination of Red with Black. The first owner, Carl “Charlie” Lohmander of Stockholm Sweden, participated just after delivery in the “Deutschland Rallye”, this event was organized from 28 September until 2 October 1960. Mr. Lohmander drove together with Stig Gruen. The couple would finish second in class. The car received its first Swedish registration, AA 874. In 1961, the car would go to the second owner, a Mr. Sven Artur Cronvall from Halmstad, Sweden. He registered the car with plate N 7547. Mr. Cronvall was active in Swedish racing and we know at least he participated int the following events: 1 May 1961: Skarpnäck (Start Number 18) 4 June 1961: Gellerasloppet (Start Number 29) 6 August 1961: Västkustloppet (Start Number 25) 20 August 1961: Kanonloppet (Start Number 11) 10 September 1961: Skarpnäcksloppet (Start Number 13) 29 April 1962: Roskilde Ring (Start Number unknown) 5 August 1962: Västkustloppet (Start Number 6) In our history file we have many photographs, including one with registration number N7547 (so Mr. Cronvall) but with a Start Number 59. At this moment we don’t know which event this was. On 8 December 1963, the car is registered in name of AB G. Lundborg from Örebro, Sweden. The car receives registration number T 22220, only for 12 days. On 30 December 1963 the car is registered in name of Mr. Kjell Alvengren from Husby, Sweden with plate D 50100.

In the mid-1960s, the original Zagato body was slightly modified to participate in ice racing in the SSK Series. The wheel arches were enlarged and widened to accommodate studded tyres. In the early 1970s, the car was registered with plate DOH 900 and seen often in Stockholm. It was owned by a Mr. Lindfors for over 40 years. After the car was exported from Sweden for the first time in its life, a complete mechanical overhaul was organized. In 2023, a correct type New Old Stock engine was sourced through marque specialist Steutel of Almkerk, The Netherlands. This engine was completely built with original Veloce parts and prepared for history rallying. The interior was completely restored to original Zagato specification. In 2024 a Fiva Identity Car is issued. Since its complete rebuild only run-in kilometers have been made. During the work, several body parts have been checked and Zagato body number 444.60 has been found on several locations.
