The Osenat house is responsible for dispersing part of the collection of the Swiss Gérald Bugnon.

Passionate about Alfa Romeo, this collector has brought together some of the most emblematic models of the Arèse firm.

On April 21, at his Fontainebleau office, Mr. Jean-Pierre Osenat will sell eight masterpieces from the Milanese brand.

The flagship of this collection is the Tipo 33.2 sports prototype developed for the 1967 Makes World Championship. After taking the podium at the 1968 24 Hours of Daytona in the 2-liter category, the prototypes acquired the nickname Daytona.

It is especially in hill climbs that the 33.2s expand their track record.

Delivered new to the French importer of the brand, SOFAR, the example in the sale allowed Ignazio Giunti to win the Ronde Cévenole in 1969.

The collection also includes a copy of TZ1.

This is the car displayed at the London Racing Car Show, January 1965. The car is in an excellent state of preservation.

This is also the case for the SZ Tonda which is none other than the old car behind the wheel of which Lyonnais Maurice Sauzay won the 1980 Tour Auto. SZ fans will be spoiled for choice.

The catalog also includes one of the 44 examples of the SZ Coda Tronca.

Me Osenat also sells the Giulietta Ti Series 1 sedan, Mr. Bugnon's first Alfa and the model at the origin of his passion for machines adorned with the Biscione.

Another gem from the collection: one of the prototypes of the Giulietta Spider made by the Italian coachbuilder Pininfarina.

Finally, the collection also includes a Giulietta Sprint Speciale Tipo 750 recognizable by its plunging nose and a GTA prepared for racing.
