The VENTURA Alfa Romeo C6 2500 Spyder circa 1950. At 16 1/2″, it is longer and a bit more awkward than the Ventura Alfa Romeo 14 1950 1900 Sprint touring car that was issued in a variety of color combinations.
To my knowledge, only this Spyder model was ever plated. It appears to be one of the largest and most imposing chrome-plated items found in this category. Ventura made a very limited range of only several model cars and all are extremely rare, especially in near to mint condition. The author must thank famous Italian collector/dealer, Matteo Bruno, without whom this car, in this condition, could never have been displayed by the author.
