Alfa Romeo and Italian design go hand in hand. It’s no surprise then that the automaker has decided to display a concept from its glorious past during the Milan Design Week. It is the 1968 Carabo prototype we are talking about, which was brought to one of the four most prominent fashion capitals of the world to celebrate the opening of a new Larusmiani fashion boutique.
The Carabo concept was originally designed by Marcello Gandini and built by Bertone – a design match made in heaven, based on the underpinnings of the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale. Still an impressive sight even today, the prototype is less than 39 inches (1 meter) tall and features sharp lines and a very sporty silhouette. Don’t forget about the scissor doors, too, which later appeared on the Lamborghini Countach, which was also designed by Marcello Gandini.
