1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia TZ

Targa Florio, 26th April 1964

The Alfa Romeo Giulia TZ (also known as the Alfa Romeo TZ or Tubolare Zagato) was  manufactured from 1963 to 1967 and was the replacement for the Giulietta SZ. The original TZ, currently sometimes referenced as TZ1 to differ from the later TZ2 was launched at the 1962 Turin Auto Show.

It featured a 1,570 twin cam engine and other mechanical components shared with the Giulietta and carried a 105 series chassis number, but was a purpose built sports racing car with a tubular spaceframe chassis built by SAI Ambrosini and the light all-aluminium bodywork was made by Zagato. Final assembly and race preparation was done at Delta - Alfa's racing arm and shortly to be renamed Autodelta.

A squadron of Alfas were entered in the race, mostly SZs and all entered by privateer teams with no direct factory or Autodelta entries. Nevertheless, the Milan-based Scuderia Sant'Ambroeus finished 3rd and 4th overall with their TZs - winning the GT1.6 class.

This is the GT1.6 class winning car, driven by Roberto Businello and Nino Todaro.
