Alfa Romeo Scarabeo

Information

A two-seater, rear-engined sports car created by Giuseppe Busso and Orazio Satta Puliga's team at OSI after the 33 race car peoject was handed over to Autodelta, as a means to compete with them. The car would have been powered by a Giulia GTA 4-cylinder engine but it never got a powertrain so it debuted at the 1966 Paris Motor Show as a rolling shell. Nonetheless it was first sold to a German customer who later sold it away in the US. One of the US owners wanted to fit an American powertrain to it to make it usable but in doing so it caused damage to the chassis. There are some rumors that the car was sent over in the Netherlands to be restored but ever since then nothing else was heard about it.
