Please note that experience shows us that the photobucket of over 100 large pixel pictures posted here are in most cases best viewed and downloaded using the very latest and most updated version of the 'Firefox' browser as some other browsers and especially older browser versions are not capable of accommodating the size of the download. Over the years our clients have overwhelmingly been appreciative of our many unaltered large pixel photos posted in our ads and our feedback has been that it is very rare that a seller will post all but the most flattering of photographs. We prefer to expose the complete roll of film taken of the car, in sometimes unflattering but natural sunlight, in order for our prospective buyers to be able to see true and reliable images of the car advertised and that is the reason for some seemingly duplicated shots. We trust you will agree.  

West Coast Classics are proud to present an absolutely exceptional and stunning example of this rare ultra low original 31K miles and long time female celebrity owner 1977 Alfa Romeo Spider Graduate 5 speed manual Convertible in the highly desirable color combination of classic and original Italian 'Rosso Corsa' (Racing Red) exterior paint with a new black soft top and with an also classic gorgeous light tan original seat interior with matching carpets professionally cut to fit the also professionally installed reinforced steel bars that were added for safety reinforcement by its most recent celebrity female owner! Obviously always garaged and covered with all original paint and obviously therefore no rust or accident history whatsoever; indeed this particular example must be seen to be believed and driven to be truly appreciated! Only driven by obviously very meticulous and careful mature drivers since new; this car has been babied all the way!

The original factory 'Rosso Corsa' paint is in exceptional condition with only very minor imperfections, if any, noticeable only upon very close inspection. The car boasts a news canvas black soft top and original and always covered and still as new tan seat interior with the whole interior in quite stunning condition throughout with no cracks in the dashboard or any noticeable imperfections apart from maybe some only very minor signs of aging in the carpet color! It also boasts the rare European option of attractive plastic 'Perspex' headlamp fairings and its original spare wheel!

The Graduate, named in honor of the movie 'The Graduate' where an Alfa Romeo had a starring role, is a legendary Italian roadster born in the sixties. It featured vinyl seats, steel wheels, and other amenities and the Alfa Romeo Spider (105/115 series) was produced by the Italian manufacturer Alfa Romeo from 1966 to 1993. Widely regarded as a design classic, it remained in production for almost three decades with only minor aesthetic and mechanical changes. The three first series were assembled by Pininfarina in Grugliasco and the fourth series in San Giorgio Canavese. The last Spider was produced in April 1993, it was also the last rear wheel drive Alfa Romeo produced before Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione was introduced.
 
The Series 2 second generation spider (1970-83) came with a more powerful 1,962cc engine in 1972. Only 4,183 cars were built in 1977. It had a cut off tail referred to known as the 'Kamm Tail' as opposed to the first generations distinctive elongated round 'Boat Tail'. It also had a newly designed grille, door handles and an improved interior trim. The 5 speed manual transmission is one of the finest manual transmissions one can hope to find in terms of feel and spirit in any European sports car and these cars drive as good as they look, they have legendarily good handling and are everything a true sports car should be, never pretentious or ostentatious but always in style! If only every car could age as well as the Spyder, it makes it impossible to ever feel old driving one!

This exceptionally well maintained and serviced example drives exactly like such an original low mileage example should and you will surely look long and hard to find a finer example of this increasingly desirable and collectible garage kept and rust and accident free 1977 Alfa Romeo Spider Roadster with only some 31K original miles in this very striking color combination available anywhere else!
