01 / THE STORY

History & context

The Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 S Berlina (1947) was coachbuilt by Stabilimenti Farina. During this period, Alfa Romeo focused on creating models that combined performance with refined design, reflecting the post-war automotive revival in Italy. The coachbuilding process involved meticulous attention to proportions and construction methods, resulting in a streamlined silhouette characteristic of the era. The 6C 2500 S Berlina featured a robust chassis with a length of approximately 3,829 mm, allowing for a balanced distribution of weight and improved handling. Mechanically, the model was powered by an inline-six engine, delivering a blend of power and smooth operation. The suspension system was designed to enhance ride comfort, incorporating independent front suspension and a rigid rear axle, consistent with the engineering practices of the time. In production terms, documentation indicates that only one unit of the Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 S Berlina was produced, making it a rare example of postwar Italian coachbuilding. The chassis number for this singular model is 913.343, providing a reference point for historians and collectors. Surviving examples are recorded in private collections and institutional archives, providing reference for researchers of postwar coachbuilding.
