Ready for Villa d ‘Este?

Alfa Romeo 2900 8C Touring by Jorge SordelliIf you're preparing your car for a Concours d'Elegance, you can stop now. When this Alfa is entered, all competition will be wiped away! Feast your eyes on the perfect detailing and the immaculate paintwork. Also the interior is out-of-sight and the engine looks really great! A true work of art. No Concours judge in his right mind would deny the trophy to this Alfa Romeo 2900 8C Touring. Would you like your concours car to look like this one?

But hold on, something's just not right here... Look closely and you'll see why. It's not the real deal, but close, very close. It's a 1:5 scale model (36" or 91.5 centimeters long) of a 1938 Alfa Romeo 2900 8C Touring created by Jorge Sordelli from California. Jorge designed the Alfa in computer CAD 3D (Catia V5) and constructed it using bronze and other materials.
