Two Tails Have I: Alfa 1900 Mystery

August 4, 2025 By pete

Detlef Nussbaum’s Alfa with a tale.

At this year’s Alfa 1900 meet (see story), Frank Rameckers helped solve a long time mystery involving a 1900 which defied attempts to identify it. So here is that brief by interesting tale of a tail or two.

Text by Frank Rameckers

At our meet was a very special 1900 dark blue 1900C SS Pinin Farina Coupé of the German Detlef Nussbaum with a very interesting story behind it. In 2023, Chris Jongsma sent me two photos of a silver-gray Coupé with race # 36 and a Dutch license plate that participated in races on the Zandvoort circuit.
