1972 Alfa Romeo Spider Convertible

Purchased new and owned by one family.

Over its 42 year history, it has been well maintained.  

The following list represents significant work and additions to the Alfa over its lifetime.

-       Engine Rebuilt 

-       Spica fuel-injection rebuilt

Transmission:  The notorious 2nd Gear is hard to engage and needs attention. 

-       Repaired or Replaced struts and wheel arms for better suspension

-       New stainless steel muffler and exhaust system

-       New Shock Absorbers (Billstein)

     -    Repaint

In 1995 it received a complete repaint: stripped to bare metal and pounded smooth before a multi-coat Silver urethane finish was applied. Almost twenty years later, the paint looks very good.

-       Nakamichi CD Player/AM-FM Radio  (w/ a removable faceplate)

-       Alfa Romeo 5-spoke alloy wheels . (Original Chrome Hubs , saved)  

-       Perelli Radial tires

-       Bumper ‘Over-Rider’ (After-market - final photo in the series) Not the best looking thing (though practical in city parking), it can be removed by loosening a few bolts on the undercarriage.

Alfa Sprint Speciale racer looks fantastic, sounds even better

Thu, Oct 2 2014

Nothing quite sounds like a vintage Alfa Romeo four-cylinder engine at full gallop, especially in motorsport trim. With a combination of low-frequency burbling played over a high-pitch scream, they really know how to sing. This week Petrolicious takes a look at a truly unique Alfa Sprint Speciale that's just as adept at competing in the wide-open La Carrera Panamericana vintage race in Mexico as it is snaking through some undulating, tree-lined back roads. Ostensibly, this is a 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint Speciale, although it's really much more the creation of Alfa-restorer Conrad Stevenson. The roof section, including the holes for the windshield and rear glass, is original to one of these fantastic-looking coupes. But everything below that is Stevenson's handiwork. To shape the styling, he combined the original Bertone design with his own ideas to purpose build the car for the challenges of the Mexican race. As usual, Petrolicious nails every aspect of the production, especially the handheld camera work inside the cabin as the car negotiates the curves. It really communicates the connection between this swoopy Alfa and its builder. Plus, the sound mix lets the engine play its glorious tune.

The Alfa Giulia Quadrifoglio set a lap record at Silverstone with someone driving blind

Mon, Nov 21 2016

Alfa Romeo announced today that its Giulia Quadrifoglio super sedan set a new lap record at Silverstone that nearly matched one put down by one of its Formula 1 cars in 1951. The F1 car set a time of 1:44, and the Giulia finished in 1:44.3. That may seem a bit slow for a modern 505-horsepower sports sedan, but it makes more sense when you realize the Giulia in question had black vinyl over the windows to keep the driver, Ed Morris, from seeing where he was going. Apparently Alfa thinks a clear view makes driving too easy. To get around the substantial handicap, Morris was assisted by directions from another driver in a following Giulia Quadrifoglio. The other driver, David Brise, radioed directions to Morris to get him around the track – and avoid crashing. Over the course of two days, the duo got the hang of it and set the aforementioned lap time. They even reached speeds of over 100 mph. You can see them practicing and setting the time in the video above. It was a cute record to set, but we're hoping blindfolded Nurburgring laps aren't next. Related Video:
