Alfa Romeo TZ Prototypes

Zagato built a number of prototypes of the Tubolare Zagato.

The first one was Spider which looked already remarkably much like the final version but which was rejected as it was aerodynamically inefficient.

The second one was basically as the TZ would become but still featuring square head lights.
In this shape it was introduced at the Turin Motor Show in November 1962.
