Die Canguro heeft op jullie eigen clubdag op Zandvoort gestaan in 1991.
De auto was toen bijna af. Motorkap helemaal nieuw gemaakt. In 1991 heeft er in het Klaverblaadje een groot artikel over het ding en zijn restauratie gestaan.

Hm, Hier vind ik wat info over een vorige eigenaar en de verkoop naar Japan. (nr. 101)
Wrak ging voor $35 van de hand....
En hier wat plaatjes van na de crash:
En nog een topic van www.alfisti.net
Wie pakt dat KB'tje er even bij? Ik was toen nog geen donateur.

Ik heb de Joal in 't blauw. (Met nr 2)
Edit: t zal wel aan mij liggen, maar ik begrijp niet waarom er nu geen plaatjes worden weergegeven

Subject: Alfa Canguro
Hi Charlie and fellow Alfisti,
Interesting for me was the question about the Canguro.
As a matter of fact this was one of the very first cars I drove myself, I
hadn't a drivers licence yet, in 1965 or 1966.
This was at the Bertone factory that I visited during the holydays.
You will understand that this was, at that time -aged 16-17-, the story of my
life.
Ever since the car had my interest and at the end of the sixties an American
living in Bitburg Germany, Gary Schmidt, bought the remains of the crashed car
from Bertone for, when I remember well, something like $50,--
There are two stories: Marcello Minerbi writes that the car was crashed by an
Italian car-journalist during a test at Monza when it hit the other Bertone
Prototype, the 'Testudo'. The Testudo was restored, the Canguro not.
The other story goes, that the car was loaned to a film crew and that Bertone
never got the car back. When they went to look for the car they found the
remains of the car in the Studio's.
Gary Schmidt restored the car as far as possible but had to sell it some years
ago to Japan.
Any way, a great car.
Hope to hear from it more.
This is correct, although I think the sum Gary paid for the carcass was $125. Could be wrong. He lives in Oregon and we should see him October 19. I'll post whatever update there is.
I have his original slides of the Canguro, as he found it in Bertone's yard. I had scans in some departed hard drive, will try to find them and put them on the AROO website sometime.
Cheers,
Joe

Oja, nog een leuk weetje:
Giugiaro's years at Bertone were amazingly productive: Along with the Testudo, Grifo and Alfa Giulia, there was the Alfa Canguro, two Ferrari 250 GTs, Maserati 5000 GT, Aston Martin DB4, Fiat 850 Spider, BMW 3200CS, Iso Rivolta, Mazda Luce and a preliminary layout for the Fiat Dino Coupe.
