Alfa 75: The End Of An Era
Developed on an extremely tight budget from older components by a company fighting for survival, the story of the Alfa 75 didn't start off with the best of premises. Yet the 75 managed to blossom into one of those rare cars that ended up being more, much more than the sum of their parts.
Because those parts came mainly from the existing Giulietta, which in turn shared with the Alfetta its sophisticated trans-axle rear-wheel-drive configuration.
In fact, the 75 carried over most of the Giulietta 's body structure and its doors, as Alfa Romeo couldn't afford to develop an entirely new car on its own. Presented in 1985, when Alfa Romeo celebrated its 75th anniversary, and its design is from the Centro Stile Alfa, then headed by the great Ermanno Cressoni, a name that should be more celebrated among Italian designers than it is.
Cressoni also oversaw the design of the 75's ancestor, the Giulietta. Here's the link to my book about it: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FFGVRWF
