Tustin, California, United States

I’m selling my 1972 Alfa Romeo GT Junior European Model.  Originally sold on the 20th March 1972 in Bergamo Italy.  The color is “faggio” (color code: AR516), with Maremma wild boar tex interior.  I purchased the car from a local classic car dealer more than two years ago and apparently I’m the 3rd owner of the car.  The previous owner purchased the car from US serviceman that had owned the car while stationed in Italy.  At some point while still in Italy the engine was replaced with European 1750 engine. The car was imported into US in 2004.  The odometer shows 25,440 Km, and has obviously turned over.

Mechanically the car is in excellent condition.  The engine drives super strong; one of the strongest I have seen.  It accelerates fast and flawless; it pulls to 110 mph in no time. I drive the car every weekend and I have a blast driving it. There are no oil leaks, no white smoke, and or black smoke of any kind.  All electrics works fine including gages, lights, heater fan & wipers.  Tachometer and speedometer work fine with no issue.  The car drives solid and suspension is tight and corners outstanding.  The interior is all-original and it’s in good condition.  Dash has a dash cap and floor plastic cover is original and it’s in very good condition.  There are some rust bubbles on the upper lip of the trunk lid.  There is some rust around the driver and passenger floors side drain hole, and spare tire drain hole, likewise the driver side door is rusted. Lower front valence is pushed in, and as shown in the photos, the front bumper is tweaked as well.  Passenger side rocker door has a shallow dent.   Most importantly, the car does not have any rust around the front windshield or the rear window, which is a very common and difficult to deal with.  Both L& R rear quarter window areas are rust free as well.  The jack point and floor is in good shape as well.  The paint is good, however it is time for fresh paint as there are several spot where the clear coat has worn away.  The car is a perfect daily driver; some thing that you can drive hard and enjoy.             

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me, I will do my best to answer any questions that you may have.  This vehicle is being sold "as-is", with no warranty, expressed or implied. Vehicle is available for inspection prior bidding to purchase.   

 A non-refundable deposit of $500 is due within 24 hours of the auction close. The remaining balance is due within 5 days from the close of auction, unless other arrangements were made. Accepted payment methods are bank wire transfers, cashier's checks and money orders. If you wish to obtain financing, please do so ahead of time. I reserve the right to end the auction early. I also reserve the right to verify any or all bids to ensure exceptional auction integrity. Please do all your homework prior bidding. 

Please do not bid on this auction unless you are serious about owing this car.  Buyer is responsible for pickup or shipping. 
If you have less than 10 feedback please contact me for verification before bidding otherwise I will cancel your bid.

Stellantis and LG launch joint venture for North American battery plant

Mon, Oct 18 2021

Stellantis has struck a preliminary deal with battery maker LG Energy Solution (LGES) to produce battery cells and modules for North America, as the world's No. 4 automaker rolls out its 30 billion euro ($35 billion) electrification plan. Global automakers are investing billions of euros to accelerate a transition to low-emission mobility and prepare for a progressive phase-out of internal combustion engines. Stellantis and LGES's joint venture will produce battery cells and modules at a new facility with an annual capacity of 40 gigawatt hours (GWh), the two firms said on Monday. No financial details of the deal were provided. The plant is scheduled to start production by the first quarter of 2024, with groundbreaking expected in the second quarter of 2022, the companies said in their statement. Its location is under review and will be announced later. Stellantis, formed in January from the merger of Italian-American automaker Fiat Chrysler and France's PSA, has said it wants to secure more than 130 GWh of global battery capacity by 2025 and more than 260 GWh by 2030. The batteries produced under the deal will supply Stellantis' U.S., Canadian and Mexican assembly plants for installation in hybrid and fully electric vehicles, supporting its goal of e-vehicles making up more than 40% of its U.S. sales by 2030. The company, whose brands include Peugeot, Fiat, Opel and U.S. best-sellers Jeep and Ram, earlier this year announced it would invest more than 30 billion euros through 2025 on electrifying its vehicle lineup. Stellantis has said it would build three battery plants in Europe and two in North America, including at least one in the United States. Intesa Sanpaolo analyst Monica Bosio said the deal was positive, and a further step ahead in Stellantis' electrification process. It comes weeks after Stellantis and its partner TotalEnergies agreed to open up their battery cell joint venture ACC to Daimler, to expand their European sourcing of battery cells. Stellantis is also targeting more than 70% of sales in Europe to be of low-emission vehicles by 2030, and aims to make the total cost of owning an EV equal to that of a gasoline-powered model by 2026.

Alfa CEO says 4C can manage more power

Mon, May 5 2014

With 240 horsepower from a 1.75-liter engine, the Alfa Romeo 4C does a lot with very little. But there's always room for improvement, says the company's CEO. Speaking with Automotive News, Alfa Romeo chief Harald Wester indicated that the historic Italian auto marque could squeeze more out of the 4C's already high-strung engine. "We are only at 134 horsepower per liter," said Wester, "so there is space" for it to produce yet more power. To accommodate the extra muscle, Wester says, the Alfa would also need bigger brakes, but the chassis may already be as stiff as it needs to be. Considering that Mercedes gets 355 horsepower out of the 2.0-liter turbo four in the A45, CLA45 and GLA45 AMG (for a specific output of over 177 hp per liter), Wester may be right, opening the door for a 300hp version with a 0-60 time of around four seconds flat. And his saying so more than subtly suggests the possibility of a more powerful 4C becoming a reality. But then the prospect of shoehorning a bigger engine into the same chassis to make a new Maserati GranSport - another prospect which Wester (also CEO of Maserati) suggested earlier in the 4C's development - never came to pass, largely due to engineering roadblocks.

Marchionne on Alfa's US return, Dodge Dart's powertrain weakness and minivan plans

Fri, 18 Jan 2013

As a reporter covering an auto show, the one opportunity you never want to miss is going to the Sergio Marchionne press briefing.
"This undertaking to bring Alfa back is a one-shot deal... We are not going to do this twice."
There just aren't that many real characters left in the auto industry. Marchionne, who sits atop both Chrysler and Fiat, is not only one of the smartest execs in the business, but also the most frank. Herein, a sample of the quotable always-sweatered executive:
