The Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 SS Victoria Cabriolet by Stabilimenti Farina.
The Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 SS Victoria Cabriolet was designed by a young Giovanni Michelotti and build by Stabilimenti Farina in the early months of 1947. It denotes a prestige front part accentuated by the overhang of the arrow shaped bumpers and the big chrome grille. The style of this body began a series of models which Stabilimenti Farina proposed also on the Fiat 1100 chassis which, despite the smaller dimensions, maintained correct proportions. A similar Coupé was also built.
The Tank Style cars from Stabilimenti Farina defied automotive norms with their low-slung profiles, signaling a departure in design during the post-war era. Originally intended as a unique cabriolet masterpiece, the Tank-Style concept surprised many by evolving beyond a solitary creation. The subsequent coupé, distinguished by its low roofline and covered wheel arches, presented an avant-garde vision akin to a floating monolith.
