MAT unveils 1967 Alfa-Romeo 33 Stradale Replica

Manifattura Automobili Torino (MAT) has unveiled a new replica of the 1967 Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale. Created for a wealthy customer, the one-off was built from scratch by using original plans for Franco Scaglione’s famous creation for Alfa Romeo. Three prototypes were 3D printed by MAT before the final bodywork was hand-crafted in aluminium.

Underneath, the chassis consists of an aluminium centre section with tubular frames front and rear. Power comes from an Alfa Romeo Montreal 2.6-litre V8 with four twin-barrel carburettors fitted, producing 240hp, mated to a longitudinal manual gearbox.

Many details are bespoke to the customer’s requests, including a steering wheel laser-cut to a unique shape, padded seats and air conditioning. The replica took 12,000 hours to complete at a cost of £1.3 million. MAT – which is best known for its Ferrari-based New Stratos – says this is the first in a new series of upmarket one-offs dubbed ‘Jewelry’.
