1958 Coupe des Alpes SHELL

Per Einarsson www.ultimostile... Follow the little Alfa Romeo Giulietta cars fighting for an Alpine Cup - with Triumph, Porsche, Citroën and Mercedes opposition, among others. It's amazing how the little italian cars can run for so long a such elevated revs.

My dad Frank at 12:03, 14:11, 22:49, 24:59 in his Austin #412. Ripping off the rear door skin. My mum Lola was driving the brown Rapier #301 at 22:45, 23:22. At 26:25 clocking in is her co-driver Mary Handley-Page

Your parents is awesome

[@peterbonnez]

@@mohandasghandi3441 Thanks surya --

[@sitarnut]

Many thanks from Texas for sharing....makes it rally interesting... tee hee.. Her name reminded me of the Handley-Page Hampden Bomber... Noble aircraft of WWII

[@peterbonnez]

@@sitarnut Hello Texas. Happy July 4th to you. Good pun!! 👍

[@sitarnut]

@@peterbonnez Thanks brother... seldom run on to anyone who is smart enough to understand puns nowadays. Kids aren't taught much anymore. One "Fawlty Towers" or Reggie Perrin have enough barbed wit and sarcasm to last a lifetime. Still, watching Monty Python, Open All Hours, etc. Remember "Upstairs Downstairs", "Danger UXB" and all those swell shows in the 70's.. "Rumpole of the Bailey" being a favorite. Yes, Happy 4th and I've got my firecrackers, Roman candles and bottle rockets at the ready for this evening's enrichment. I like your style of presentation, subbing immediately... joyously informative and entertaining.

That must have been a fantastic event to compete in ,what fantastic roads and great cars to beat on .Well done to all those great drivers. Doug

[@MelodyOo]

this is amazing, it's crazy to see how these cars were actually driven unlike today everyone wants to preserve these classics in crazy good museum condition. where "Collectors" ahem I mean Investors collect them to auction them at ludicrous prices.

[@Diodorus79]

Love this video. Back then when cars had style!

[@sitarnut]

As did the drivers, especially winning Pat Stirling.

[@paulbroderick8438]

Stunning coverage! How I love this competition with its great cars, great drivers and of course the beautiful testing routes. The private owners must have had deep pockets to cover the expenses without sponsorship.

[@leewalker3269]

Great footage in a fine overview of another time. As a long time rally fan with some limited club runs that my wife and I have made, I found this film delightful.. Wish we could ever have been a part of such an international event. Love Pat Moss.. amazingly consistant and determined.

[@haraldschon7794]

I love Alfa Romeo!

[@MikeJF355]

Hats off to these drivers. I have been lucky enough to drive on some of these roads and even in a modern car they are quite a challenge.

[@fordlandau]

Serious fun. Real cars. Minimal safety. Wonderful.

[@andysvehiclehistorychannel]

What a great video especially as I collect diecast models it's amazing to see the real cars

[@johnheitmann6096]

This was terrific -- really faithful to the experience of competitive European rally driving during the late 1950s!

[@stephenhenion8304]

Classic bit of Motoring History. The Cars, the scenery and the music. Nice Ride. Love the Sprites, Big Healey's, TR 3.....Alfas....

[@ursus9104]

Oh, those where the days when the lovely Alfa’s ruled the races.

[@sherrin130]

Awesome,well done for sharing,gotta love 'em Alfa's.

[@sergio020202]

The 1958 Alfa cars look like modern cars, the others, outside the Citroen DS, seem to come out of a museum. Road holding of the others: an optional. Impressive, in this regard, the comparison in the city tour on asphalt before the film of the award ceremony.

[@studiocalder818]

unattainable Giuliettas

[@fordlandau]

Stupendous. Great driving. Open circuit with handcarts and cafes inches away. Infinite drop offs. No guard rails. No seat belts. Great production too. Everyone here has balls and brains. Including the female drivers. Never to happen again in the near future. Riveting stuff. Thank you !!

[@axiomist4488]

You forgot : No rollbars !

[@sergio0159]

Wonderful film 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@angelsone-five7912]

Great film. Love the music, straight out of St Trinians.

[@teamracing6]

awesome coverage of the rally and very good quality video.

[@Anguillacat]

Great! Thanxx and of course Alfa corse!

[@ralflang5524]

great video, thanks for sharing!

[@zeke3486]

No one beats the alfa romeos reliable high performance engines and robust chassis. Cars designed for racing will always win.

[@studiocalder818]

faithful unreachable Giuliettas

[@johnwakamatsu3391]

I did not know that Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Zagato raced in 1958. I always thought that they were produced in 1959. I have been driving Giulietta cars since 1968 and never saw a rally until today.

[@alekos911z4]

Well done! I love this kind of videos. Perfect!

[@shamfilmpresents6309]

34:54 full of suspense...great video documentary...😚🙂🙂👍👍

[@pralhadmundargi6503]

Amazing how these cars were performing back in their times. Plus compared to the current rally cars these did not have any electronic devices or hydraulic steering wheel. Just amazing. Are there any other racing films like this one?

[@giuseppebenvenuti2396]

Fosse trasmesso in TV prima serata farebbe milioni di spettatori!

[@larsalexandersson2253]

Tack. Detta är en underbar film!

[@axiomist4488]

That guy in the Bugeye (Frogeye) was really hauling ass ! Really flying, considering he's only got 49 horsepower (maybe a little more if the engine was adjusted . The Healeys flew beautifully .

[@alfa155silverstone]

これで1958年かぁ・・世界は凄いな。

[@SquadraAlfaRMadeira]

perfect Alfa Romeo ´s ! :)

[@frankp6477]

nice Guilietta's, very nice movie

[@dolcevita1971]

Grazie Ultimostile

[@mosca3289]

Denis Jenkinson at 16:17 ?

[@raulamorena697]

Hermosa época hermosos autos había mucha diferencia de unos autos a otros y también entre los pilotos mucha mezcla excelentes buenos y los que solamente sabían llevar un auto. Pero muy amateur y maravillosa epoca

[@johndeere1951a]

At about 16:30 journalist Denis Jenkinson is seen at the Triumph spin out directing traffic and helping to get the ladies under way again. 1958, what innocence before big dollor sponsors and faster cars. ✌️👍🏁🇺🇲

[@nickjervis8123]

I have and drive a 1958 Ford Zephyr Farnham. I wonder if it would make this run.

[@SteveHall1962]

Man, they really beat the snot out of those tough little cars....

[@signorpippistrello]

9:09 Harrison‘s Ford....!

[@RoadTouring]

great video, loved it! Could i use some little shots here and there for a next video of mine ? i will give credits in the description obviously, thanks!

[@annibalececconi8537]

Gara impressionante, poco conosciuta dagli italiani

Too bad the lenses were consistently unsharp enough for the task.

[@theroadblog2858]

Du er ved at planlægge næste tur ser det ud til. Ikke dårligt. Jeg glæder mig til at høre turbeskrivelsen når du kommer til strøjersamlingen og skal holde foredrag en dag.
