Spanish Alpines

So there is a neat little private collection on a winding road to Guadalest in Eastern Spain that is open to the public. While predominantly motorbikes ....



... there are a few cars. The common theme throughout most of the collection is that they were manufactured in Spain. Which did pose the question, what is that in the middle as it looks oddly like an Alpine 108!

It turned out that in the 70s Alpine struck manufacturing deals in:
1. Mexico - called the 'Dinalpin'
2. Bulgaria - called the 'Bulgaralpine'
3. Brazil - called the 'Interlagos'
4. Spain - called the 'FASA'

So behold the FASA. It's a beautiful, petite car like all Alpines of the vintage.


 
 


Here's its guts:
