A rambling story about an old car: an Alfa Romeo 1900C SS Zagato. Built in 1955, it had six owners before I acquired it in 1969 when it was virtually worthless. Fifty years later I am in the process of restoring it. Hanging on for half a century was worth it. Only somewhere between 30 and 40 of these cars were fitted with Zagato bodies and some were lost over the years. Now they are worth a million and up.
