1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia TZ
Sebring 12 hrs, 21st March 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.
The Milan-based Scuderia Sant'Ambroeus entered four of the newly homologated TZs in the race, finishing 13th and 26th overall with 2 cars DNFs - winning the GT1.6 class.
This is the number 53 GT1.6 class-winning car, driven by American driver pairing Jim Kaser and Chuck Stoddard.
