This car is beautiful and drives great, right NOW. It is NOT perfect so let's get that out of the way now. It has an Oregon branded title. The branded title is the results of body damage at a time when the value of GTVs were low, The cost of repair exceeded the cars value at the time of damage. This was the fate of many Alfas just 10 to 15 years ago. The owner at the time took what the insurance company paid and his own money and had the car repaired properly. As near as I can tell the nose and part of  the right front fender were replaced. There is evidence of floor repairs and currently the floors are without rust. The overall condition of the body of the car is near perfect with some small surface rust bubbles near the right rear window just below the pillar badge. There is a windshield scratch on the passengers side that can be polished out. The side marker lights and bumper uprights have been remove for better cosmetics. There is a small area, about an inch, on the top of the rear seat that needs repair. Other than this the car is ready to drive now. Get in, start it and drive away.

Current top price for a perfect GTV is $35,000. This in not a perfect car but looks and drives like one. You can own it for far less than $35,000 and drive it the day it arrives at your house. You will of course have responsibility for transportation.

This car is has red performance springs and Koni shocks on all four corners.

The following work was completed on Tuesday January 28, 2014, where parts were replaced they were replaced with NEW parts: Replace  clutch slave cylinder and hose, replace fuel tank filter, replace all fuel hoses, replace fuel pump, replace battery, replace points..spark plugs..distributor cap..distributor rotor..condenser, coolant bleeder, anti-freeze, gear oil trans and diff, brake fluid, clutch fluid, replace (used) 1-4 exhaust manifold, engine oil and filter.

The following services were performed: Replace radiator filler flange and service radiator, rebuild wiper motor and wiper mechanism, Replace main wire on Alternator, repair backup light and left rear tail lights.

replace old tires with 4 NEW TIRES!

I did not mention the Transmission because there is nothing to say except that it is smooth as glass.

I would buy this car myself (I'm selling this car for a friend who is eBay challenged) but I already have 4 GTVs and one is burgundy.

All recent work was performed by Veloce Motors in Oregon by a 1973 factory trained  certified Alfa mechanic.

Please read the description before asking questions. This is an auction and WILL take place on eBay and not on the phone. I will be glad to talk to the winner on the phone at the end of the Auction.

Alfa Romeo C43 is ready for the 2023 Formula One season

Tue, Feb 7 2023

Following rival Red Bull's lead, Alfa Romeo has become the second team to unveil the car it will race in the 2023 season of Formula One. (Haas has revealed its livery, but so far not the new season's car.) Called C43, the single-seater Alfa stands out from its predecessor with a new aerodynamic profile and a redesigned livery, among other changes. The C43's red and black livery is the work of the Alfa Romeo Centro Stile, which is the same design center that draws the storied Italian company's road cars. Alfa Romeo describes the C43 as an evolution of the C42, its predecessor, and it notes that a technical team led by Jan Monchaux developed it around a new, Ferrari-sourced power unit. It features several updates and numerous new parts, though full details haven't been released, and Alfa Romeo hopes the changes made to the C43 will allow its team to improve during the 2023 season. "This car is an evolution of last year's, reflecting the new regulations and introducing major changes in the areas where we found improvements to be needed. I hope it's going to be quicker than the successful car we had last year, that's what matters most, and more reliable as well: We have put a lot of effort in this direction," said Monchaux, the technical director of Alfa Romeo's Formula One team. Alfa Romeo will begin testing the C43 in Barcelona, Spain, in February, and it will then send the car to Bahrain for more testing ahead of the 2023 F1 season's first race. Valtteri Bottas and Zhou Guanyu will drive for Alfa Romeo during the upcoming season. And while the odds of non-professional drivers taking the C43 for a spin are low, anyone with or without a license will be able to drive it in the F1 2022 video game.

Mazda engineers urging execs for more RWD models

Wed, 02 Oct 2013

According to Edmunds, Mazda engineers are pressuring the company to create more rear-wheel-drive models, in an effort to better differentiate itself from its rivals. This push is reportedly coming from middle and senior engineers within the company, and these folks at Mazda believe this rear-drive strategy would allow the automaker to produce more distinctive, fun to drive cars. Mazda discontinued the rear-drive (and rotary-engined) RX-8 a few years ago, leaving the MX-5 Miata as the company's only RWD offering.
As enthusiasts, we're fully on board with Mazda offering more rear-drive cars, but unsurprisingly, the company's top management isn't exactly keen on the idea - and with good reason. First and foremost, the cost associated with redesigning fresh architecture for new models would be very high, and considering the fact that Mazda hasn't exactly been raking in the dough lately, an expensive new venture like this doesn't make a whole lot of sense. What's more, Mazda's latest front-drive models - the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5 - have been very well-received, and are helping the company gain sales momentum.
But that doesn't mean there aren't other options. Edmunds reminds us that Mazda is already partnering with Alfa Romeo on the next-generation Miata, and if this collaboration is successful, perhaps the relationship could bear additional fruit. After all, Alfa Romeo is said to be working on returning to its rear-wheel-drive roots, so Mazda's engineers might be able to make a case for more RWD goodness after all.

Watch 14 hot rides take over concept car lawn at Pebble Beach

Sun, Aug 16 2015

The Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance is an annual celebration of the beautiful, old cars that grace Monterey Car Week. But Monterey – and Pebble – features lots of newer metal, too, and that includes the concept lawn at Pebble Beach. Now, "concept lawn" isn't a totally accurate name anymore, and you'll see why in the list below. This year especially, plenty of production cars can be found in the area once reserved for the conceptual. Still, we're happy to see them. Here's what's featured this year: Alfa Romeo 4C Spider Audi R8 BAC Mono Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6 BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage R Buick Avenir Galpin-Fisker Rocket Speedster Hyundai HCD-16 Vision G Coupe Icona Volcano Infiniti Q60 Lamborghini Asterion LPI 910-4 Maserati Ghibli McLaren 570S Rolls-Royce Wraith By our count, that's seven concepts out of fourteen cars. But it still makes for one hot group of metal. Check 'em out in the gallery above.
