April 2, 1964

Assembled & prepared by Auto Delta in Udine as the second TZ of the non-prototypes.
150 Hours at a total cost of Lira 225.000
(See scan of invoice below)
As this was so early in the production process, Alfa Romeo did not yet have engines available and consequently 750006 (along with 750028 and 750031 which were also in this very first "production batch") were shipped to Alfa Romeo's Experimental Department (DIPRE ESPE) to be completed with engine and gearbox.
These engines and gearboxes were built at DIPRE ESPE.

Sala removed all paint from the bodywork, inside and out, in order to reduce the weight.
Arturo Merzario remembers Giancarlo Sala and the car and relayed that Sala got the idea to do this when he saw extremely quick Porsches race in bare aluminium at the Nurburgring.
Another source added that Sala even sanded down the aluminium to reduce the thickness in an attempt to further reduce the weight.
The car would remain in bare aluminium until its restoration in the 2000's, making it an instantly recognizable TZ.
