1969 Alfa Romeo Boat Tail Spider Project on 2040-cars
Tarrytown, New York, United States
|
This Spider underwent a complete professional metal restoration, including the floors and rockers. The body was stripped/prepped, and the doors, hood, trunk lid, and dash removed before painting in a spray boot seven years ago.
The only part left unpainted is the undercarriage, which is in epoxy primer. The car has been stored in a dry, heated garage ever since it was brought home from the body shop. Not much has been done to it other than installing the bumpers, some lights and the dash. Although the most difficulty work was painstakingly done, the car still needs a soft top, and brake, mechanical, suspension and interior work. As such, it may be of interest to those who prefer avoiding the time and expense of bringing a Duetto's body shell back to its original glory. The drive train has 78,564 miles. The engine turns freely by hand or with the starter if you apply 12 volts to the solenoid. The only parts missing include the exhaust system (front, center and rear muffler), the exhaust shield under the car, the metal shields for the clutch MC and brake MC, the metal brake lines to the rear proportioning valve and rear right caliper, the radiator plastic shroud, the factory tool kit, the soft top, and the interior rubber mats and carpeting. The following parts have been media blasted and primed or painted: front A-arms, rear trailing arms, front splash shields, heater box metal pieces, head light buckets, drive shafts, pedal assembly, and all the soft top frame pieces. New front A-arms and rear trailing arms bushing were installed along with new OEM front springs pans and rear axle limiting straps. The drive shafts received new u-joints and center bearing support. A new windshield made in England and a new windshield rubber gasket is included in the sale price. It is probably best to install these after taking care of the few cracks on the upper dashboard. Please note that the New York State DMV does not issue titles for 1972 and older vehicles. This Alfa Romeo will be sold with a certification of sale. I would prefer a cash transaction but can accept a check. However, you will have to wait until the balance shows in my account before you gain possession of the vehicle. I encourage any potential buyer to come see the car. I kindly ask those who showed interest in this car in the past but were unable to finalize its purchase to find another project. |

Just 45% of Fiat dealers are profitable, and they're angry about it
Mon, 07 Oct 2013<
On average, Fiat dealers have only been selling about 17 cars a month.
We've been wondering for some time how Fiat dealers in North America have been getting along with just one model range in their showrooms up until recently. Franchisees spent millions building, stocking and manning sleek new 'studio' showrooms, only to have but a single model to sell, the cherubic 500. And even with its many derivatives, the Cinquecento is still an inexpensive model with its attendant lower margins. Perhaps it should come as no surprise then, that just 45 percent of US Fiat dealers are said to be profitable.
Get lost in Evo's sublime 2013 Car of the Year testing
Fri, 08 Nov 2013Every year Evo stages its Car of the Year test, bringing the best performance cars in the world to one location for an epic shootout. This year the magazine pitted eight CotY finalists against each other on Route Napoleon in Southern France - Evo claims it's the "best road in the world" - and then proceeded to nitpick the smallest of faults on each car until the winner could be named. You see, this year's lineup of machines was just so good that only one car obviously wasn't CotY material from the get-go. Can you guess which one judging from the list below?
- Aston Martin V12 Vantage S
- Audi R8 V10 Plus
