This Alfa-Romeo 8C 2300 Monza was
used by swedish driver Per Wiktor (PeWe)
Widengren from 1931 when it was bought new from
the factory. It was later converted to mono-posto
and the engine rebored to 2,6 litre In 1936 PeWe
ended his racing career. The car was sold to
Helmer-Carlsson Alsed and raced by him until late
1938. It was found in a very bad condition by
Karl-Erik Fröjd in 1956 and renovated by him for
8 years. Above is the car in road trim
Like
many other fine cars this one no longer lives in
Sweden.
