Chassis AR 595221 is a 1963 Alfa Romeo Giulia TI Super, the lightweight homologation variant developed for touring car competition, featuring an aluminium bonnet, bootlid and door skins, plexiglass rear window, twin Weber 45 DCOE carburettors producing 110 bhp, and Campagnolo magnesium wheels. Originally delivered new in Milan, the car spent nine years in the Netherlands before returning to Italy around 2016. It survives in road-going specification — increasingly rare among TI Supers, most of which were converted for racing use.

Register your ownership and privately add your own records to make it a verified Legacy Metrics passport — provenance that backs your car's value at sale and gives your insurer evidence to price against. Roy reviews and verifies every registration personally.

Each chassis record is compiled from public auction archives and links to its source material. Ownership, competition and maintenance entries are extracted from those catalogue listings by an LLM, which can make mistakes — please contact us with any corrections. The summary is Legacy Metrics’ own writing; we do not reproduce catalogue text.

“Full” and “partial” documentation labels indicate how well each entry is corroborated in the underlying sources, not an audit of the car’s physical paperwork. Names of recent or living owners are withheld for privacy.
