1958 Alfa Romeo Guilietta Spider Convertible on 2040-cars
Bristol, Connecticut, United States
|
This car is part of my private collection. The car is all original that I know of with the exception of the radio. The engine number does not match. This car was completely restored in 1973 by a dealer in Connecticut. There is no rot and is in actually in really good overall extremely solid condition. The rocker panels are great. There were some paint bubbles that I sanded and primed over to preserve as you can see in the pics. I have since buffed out the nose of the car and have included the after photos. The car looks great just from what I did to the front nose since the primer spots are now down to a minimum. Things that have been done to the car: new
clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing, rebuilt master cylinder, new
brakes and cylinders, fuel system cleaned. The car was running, I have
not started it in a while. The body is straight, the doors close like butter and all the electrical is in tact. All the glass is great, window
cranks work. The interior is in decent shape, the leather seats could use
either replacing or some new stuffing, there are a couple of small tears.
The top has holes in it and will need replacing. The tires and leather
suspension straps need replacing. All of the chrome pieces are on the car. Some dents on the grill. All can use a
re-chroming. The car looks great in person, its really dusty in the pics. It has been sitting in dry storage. Forgot to mention it was undercoated underneath in 1973, no rot there either. A light restore for immediate driving or a further in depth restore for the articulate collector. This car is an excellent candidate in exceptional condition, not like some of the other cars you see of the
same year. Overall with a bit of love and attention she could be a better
gem than she already is. Good Luck Bidding. Please do not bid
if you are not serious or if you have bad feedback. I take pride in my
100% positive feedback. The car is located

Is Alfa Romeo readying 4C Spider for Detroit reveal?
Wed, Dec 31 2014The 2015 Detroit Auto Show just keeps looking like one of the best automotive events in the Motor City in years, and it seems increasingly likely that we're going to see another sports car reveal there with the production Alfa Romeo 4C Spider. The latest hint towards the unveiling of the Spider comes from FCA's own blog. In a story about the first customer deliveries of the 4C Launch Edition, the last sentences nearly let the cat out of the bag: "Alfa Romeo plans to introduce eight new models by 2018. You'll get your next Alfa fix at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January." Just looking at the roofline of the 4C, it's pretty clear that a convertible was in the cards from the very beginning. Alfa confirmed that with the Spider concept (pictured below) at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, and reaffirmed the drop top in the company's five-year plan. Further evidence for the fast approaching debut came recently when a fully production-spec 4C Spider (pictured above) was spotted being professionally filmed in Spain. It sported some changes over the concept, including a cooling inlet on the driver's side rear fender and exhausts at the corners, instead of the center.

Alfa Romeo Giulietta facelift to ape Giulia
Sun, Oct 4 2015When a brand launches a big, bad flagship model, it's only natural that it would seek to tweak the styling of its lesser models to more closely resemble the top dog. For Alfa Romeo, that means instilling a bit of Giulia style in the Giulietta hatchback. And that, in turn, means a new, more aggressive fascia. While these shots show the same kind of dopey headlights featured on the current Giulietta, our spies report that they'll be tweaked to reflect the sharper grille and bolder lower bumper. Even if the shape of the headlights is retained, the look inside the housing will likely change. Changes in back are more subtle, although we can expect the taillights and rear bumper to be retouched. Changes should come to the cabin, too, as indicated by the camouflage inside. Again, though, these are likely to be of the mid-cycle refresh variety, so don't European consumers should expect a dramatic transformation over the current car. Check out the full gallery of spy photos at the top of the page, and keep an eye open for the facelifted Giulietta when it debuts next year at Geneva. Related Video:
The new Alfa Romeo Giulia needs to be a BMW beater
Mon, Apr 11 2016The introduction of the Alfa Romeo Giulia as a BMW challenger is a claim that historically has meant that it will not be as good as a BMW. Mercedes, Audi, Lexus, Infiniti, Cadillac, and a few others have tried to loosen BMW's grip on the sports sedan market with little success. It was BMW that was doing the copying when in the early sixties they looked to Alfa Romeo's sport sedans for inspiration. Alfa Romeo's pre-war racing pedigree was second to none, and series production Alfas were sporting twin cam engines, and fuel injection years before BMW. What the post-war Alfa cars did not offer was reliability and an North American dealer network that knew how to service or sell their products. Consequently in 1995 Alfa abandoned the US market. Now it is the Alfa Giulia taking aim at the BMW 3-series. The Fiat/Chrysler group has a lot of resources (think Ferrari), and the engineering chops to beat BMW at its own game, but it will take a long time to build a reliable dealer network, not to mention the quality issues that have dogged them for decades. Alfa will follow what has become a familiar recipe to challenge the 3-series. With 3 sets of trim available, the most affordable model, the Giulia, and further upscale, Giulia ti, both with a turbocharged 4-banger and 276 HP compares favorably with the BMW 328i and the Audi A4. The 505 HP Giulia flagship is shooting for the M4/3. Good luck with that, Alfa. A delayed introduction hints of troubles to come. Unfortunately for Alfa both the Audi A4 and BMW 3-series have millions of dedicated fans, most of whom do not have to be reminded about their automobile's pedigree. Millennial have never had the chance to aspire for an Alfa, and the older generations that still remember them are only a very small share of the market. Alfa has to avoid joining the automotive graveyard of models that have tried to attain BMW's status. Just to be cruel I will mention the Cadillac Cimarron. If you are too young to remember, it was the cheapest Chevy front wheel drive platform with a Cadillac badge. Panned by both GM management and the automotive press, it was a spectacular flop. I hope that the executives of the Fiat/Chrysler group remember it well. We do not need a Fiat in a stylish suit.
