Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance 2013: The Alfa Romeos

Every few years, a group of Alfa Romeo 8Cs get together and go for a drive. They aren't heading down to a local car show - they're out on a trek, which takes place over a 1,000 miles, starting in Idaho, then to Canada, through Washington, and ending in Montana.Check out this curvy beauty, a 1938 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B Touring Spider. This impressive looking car is a little bit of a beast too...... under the hood, at least. The heart of this Alfa is a twin supercharged 2900cc straight 8.
