1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider on 2040-cars
Pataskala, Ohio, United States
NO RESERVE My grandfather bought this car (and a parts car...1963 Giulia) in 1980 when he retired. He tore the car apart and it sat until 2009. The farm sold in 2009 and he had a little bit a money to put back into this project. So, we started putting the car back together in 2009. Sadly, his health deteriorated quickly. His final wish was to get a chance to drive this car again. Unfortunately, he never got the chance to drive it. But we were able to take him for a ride around the block several times. After several strokes and due to growing medical bills and the inevitable hospice care that will be needed, we must let the car go. (I have several videos of him in car so that you can see and hear it running and driving) The following is a description of the car as I know to be accurate. I will not lie or falsify information just to sell the car. The chasis is a 1961. The engine came out of the parts car (1963) and thus has the 1600 in it. We used the hood from the 1963 in order to clear the bigger engine. Because we were rushed to put this car back together quickly, corners were cut. Not going to lie about that. However, one thing I'll stand behind is the body work. The body work is fantastic. Zero bondo in this car...everything was welded correctly and dents were pulled. (I'll have more work in progress pictures for interested buyers) The paint is a nice driver....hardly show worthy. Mechanically, she won't win any prizes. Master and wheel cylinders were rebuilt. Engine was rebuilt...but I can't say one way or the other if it was done correctly. It has the 5 speed from the 1963. All trim/chrome appears to be in decent shape. There is the typical pitting that you would expect from a 50 year old car. Bumpers are original and are painted. (Not re-chromed) There is no heater box. We have 2 tops for the car. An original all steel hard top (Pictured) and the soft top. The soft top has not been refurbished. The frame appears to be in good condition. The tires are 30 years old (Only 10 miles on them, however) Grandpa bought tires in 1980. I wouldn't put them on the highway if I were you. The brakes are squishy. I believe there is still a bit of air in the lines. New exhaust with original manifold. Some of the gauges don't work. It has an original (almost perfect condition) wiring harness. However, we have what appears to be a good voltage regulator but I have 2 extra. (I really have no idea what I'm doing with electric) I strongly encourage you to call me before bidding to talk about the car. (614-378-7508) I am not shipping this car anywhere. If you want it, buy a ticket to Columbus Ohio. I'll pick you up from the airport...we'll go look at the car. If it's what you want, we'll do the deal. I'll even drive you to a uhaul location to rent a trailer to start your journey home. I will not accept paypal or any other form of scam ridden payment options. Meet me in Columbus Ohio. We can do a wire transfer or cash. The winning bidder will be required to send me a $2000 earnest money deposit within 7 days. ( A check is fine for that) PLEASE CALL 614-378-7508 WITH ANY QUESTIONS! |

New Forza 6 car pack will let you race the Pontiac Aztek
Fri, Jan 29 2016Just in time for this weekend's Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona, the new Alpinestars Car Pack for Forza Motorsport 6 on the Xbox One lets you slip into the driver's seat of last year's winner. If you want to take something much weirder for a spin, the collection also includes a 2005 Pontiac Aztek. The download is available now for $6.99. The Ford #02 Chip Ganassi Racing Riley Mk XXVI Daytona was in a four-car battle early in last year's race, but it eventually was victorious. Forza Motorsport 6 also challenges drivers who download the car to a new Rivals event around Daytona, and the fastest people could win Alpinestars prizes. If you're nostalgic for a classic Daytona racecar, this pack includes Mercury #15 Whistler Radar Cougar XR-7. The V8-powered beast won the IMSA GTO class in the 24-hour event in 1990. It should be fun around the game's longer road courses like Road Atlanta. This collection also has an eclectic mix of vehicles that aren't racecars. The controversial Aztek and the equally-controversial 1996 Subaru SVX take their places beside a lineup that offers drivers three eras of performance cars – a 1967 Sunbeam Tiger, 1974 Toyota Corolla SR5, and 1992 Alfa Romeo Milano Quadrifoglio Verde. The video below shows all of them in action. Race to the Finish Line with the Alpinestars Car Pack for Forza Motorsport 6 By Xbox Wire Staff posted on January 27, 2016 at 8:00 am With the racing season set to kick into full gear during this weekend's Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona race, Forza fans now have a chance to get their own taste of endurance racing glory with the Alpinestars Car Pack for Forza Motorsport 6, available on Thursday, Jan. 28. Leading off the pack of seven cars is last year's 24 Hours of Daytona winner, the 2015 Ford #02 Chip Ganassi Racing Riley Mk XXVI Daytona Prototype. The prototype will be fielded in this weekend's race, which begins at 2 p.m. EST on Saturday, Jan. 30 and can be viewed live on Fox Sports 1 in the U.S. The Alpinestars Car Pack features six additional cars, each with a unique pedigree all its own. From the 1990 Mercury #15 Whistler Radar Cougar XR-7 – also a competitor in Daytona 24 Hour events of years past – to the inimitable 2005 Pontiac Aztek (famous more for its fictional owner than its performance), this pack has something for every kind of car fan. Forza Motorsport 6 is the only game where players can drive last year's Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona winner on the recently remodeled Daytona International Speedway.
Alfa Romeo planning Giulia GTA to rival M3, C63
Tue, Aug 19 2014What do you think of when you see the letters GTA? The Grand Theft Auto video game franchise? The GTA Spano supercar from Spain? Alfa Romeo enthusiasts remember it as the ultimate badge of performance from the Italian automaker, but while it's been over a decade since those letters appeared on a production Alfa, the latest rumors suggest they could be making a comeback in the form of a new Giulia GTA. Those who've been following developments from Alfa Romeo will know that the company is planning a successor to the beautifully angular 159 with a new Giulia to slot in above the Giulietta five-door hatch, and according to Auto Express, a new GTA version is in the works. Tipped to be powered by an upgraded version of the 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 developed by Ferrari for the Maserati Ghibli, the Giulia GTA is rumored to pack around 500 horsepower (give or take 20 horses) underhood. That would give it a solid output advantage over the 425-hp BMW M3 and 451-hp Mercedes C63 AMG and give Fiat Chrysler Automobiles a performance sedan to challenge the upcoming Cadillac ATS-V and slot in below the bonkers 707-hp Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat. Expect other oily bits to include a dual-clutch transmission and limited slip differential, as well as upgraded brakes, rolling stock and aero components. The last time we saw the GTA badge was on the MiTo GTA concept (pictured above) that appeared at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show. Alfa was said to be considering a 159 GTA, similarly powered by Ferrari, back in 2007, but the rumors didn't come to fruition. The last production model to wear those letters was the 156 GTA that preceded it, with a 3.2-liter V6 that produced 250 hp. The most famous example, however, was the Giulia Sprint GTA produced in the late 1960s... a legend that Alfa appears keen to revive with this new model.

2024 Alfa Romeo Tonale First Drive: An electrifying Italian alternative
Thu, May 11 2023MILAN, Italy – Chicken or egg? ItÂ’s often a matter of perspective. In this case, the 2023 Dodge Hornet is based on the 2024 Alfa Romeo Tonale – itÂ’s even built in Italy – yet it was the Dodge that arrived first on American shores. By the narrowest of margins, true, but it happened nevertheless. That leaves the Tonale (pronounced "toe-nal-ay," not "toe-nail") to carve out a premium niche for itself above the buzzy Italian-American.  How? For starters, the Tonale is exclusively available as a plug-in hybrid in the United States. Only Canada and Mexico will get the lower-output, gasoline-only variant. Producing 285 horsepower and 347 pound-feet of torque combined, the plug-in powertrain consists of a 1.3-liter turbocharged four-banger and six-speed automatic transmission up front and a 121-horsepower electric motor on the rear axle. ThereÂ’s no physical connection between them, so power from the gas engine canÂ’t be sent rearward or vice versa. That means the Tonale is effectively rear-wheel drive when in electric-only mode. It can run like that for more than 30 miles if the 15.5-kilowatt-hour battery is fully charged, which requires about 2.5 hours on a level 2 setup. Provided you donÂ’t ask more of the powertrain than the battery and motor are able to deliver, it will putter along in combustion-free silence. Mashing the throttle will engage the gas engine no matter what hybrid mode youÂ’re in; more on those below. The standard Tonale is equipped with a MacPherson strut suspension with Frequency Selective Damping (FSD) shocks. They may sound like fancy electronic dampers but FSD shocks do their magic without any digital intervention. While not as sharp as performance-tuned shocks, nor as comfortable as those engineered to deliver the best ride, they offer a solid balance that is much less costly or complex than the adaptive setup that comes standard on the range-topping Veloce model. The VeloceÂ’s adaptive suspension is incorporated into Alfa's "DNA" drive mode selection system, tightening up in “Dynamic” and backing off in “Natural” and “Advanced Efficiency.” The TonaleÂ’s other sporty add-ons — aluminum steering column-mounted paddle shifters, aluminum pedals and red Brembo calipers with white Alfa Romeo script — are part of the “High Performance Driving Package,” which is optional on the mid-range Sprint and baked into the Veloce. The hybrid modes mentioned earlier exist outside the D-N-A dial.
