Buyer’s notes
About the Alfa Romeo 8C 2300
The 8C 2300 used a supercharged 2.3-litre straight-eight and was sold as a chassis for Italian and French coachbuilders to body. In Le Mans form it won the 24 Hours four years running, from 1931 to 1934.
What moves the price
- Coachwork: original bodies are prized; many cars have been rebodied over the decades.
- The engine: matching numbers, and whether it has been enlarged or rebuilt.
- Provenance: a documented history from new, ideally in the marque historians’ records.
Before you buy, check
- Chassis and engine numbers against the published marque histories.
- When and by whom the current body was built.
- Invoices for engine rebuilds and restoration work.
