A Montreal! Perhaps the only good looking car Bertone has ever designed.

Well, they have had a few lookers over the years.

Who can forget the Dino 308 GT4? BLECH!

And…the engine is of 33 stradale lineage. No, one will NOT replace it. It’s a gem. In the 33 stradale it made 230hp.

And revved to 10,000 RPM.

And was quite simply marvelous…

My father in law told me how the buffalo alfa club (for which he was the founding president) went to this guys house where he had a bunch of rare alfas in the garage that he never lets anybody in. Could this be it??

I’ve seen anywhere from 230 to 250hp _for the roadgoing stradale_. I’m not sure what the Tipos were. I never really cared, as they weren’t too successful in racing.

The V8 in the Montreal made about 200hp. It was a 2.5 I believe. Similar designs.
