Looks more like somebody's loose 'interpretation' of an Alfa TZ2 ...

The proportions are very Corvette but that can't be right... or proper!

It was my car and sold it many years ago, a mistake, but got a similiar one last year even better.
The guy I sold it send me this photo after it arrived in Portugal. The 230 is the sportest of the range
I had a 280 as well for many yrs here is a photo and its now in Monaco.

There's a 75 and Zagato in the background, so possibly Alfa related.

Apologies for the quality and for if this is a duplication. "Borrowed" from the 356 Registry site courtesy of Charlie White
At least two nice cars?

The blue one is the same colour as mine - db906. Mine has the cognac interior
Odd that you should say yours is in Monaco... (although this is a right hooker... MB did it up for him and gave it to him...)

Ok, I admit it, I borrowed it from Early S... who borrowed it from this great site. A whole years worth of great images.

I still am that little boy, I had a matchbox large size model , Mondo model brand have lovely yellow
one's with great detail for £10 approx, I must say the red with gold wheels is special, I have the LJK Steright article from 1967. I understand they are somewhat of a handful to drive not sorted.
