Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider 1963
General description :
The Alfa Romeo Giulia was introduced in 1962 as a direct replacement for the immensely popular Giulietta. Displacement of the iconic twin-cam four engine increased from 1.3 to 1.6 litres, continuing the 'small car, big performance' philosophy and improved power from 80 to 92bhp.The stunning bodywork was designed once more by legendary coachbuilder Pininfarina with the Giulia easily distinguished by its bonnet air scoop, necessary to clear the larger engine's block. A five-speed gearbox was fitted to the Giulia as standard, whilst the larger engine ran smoother and was more usable than its predecessor.The LHD example we are offering for sale was produced in 1963 and first delivered on November 20th to Las Palmas, Spain. The car maintains an extensive history file with a large number of invoices and photographs, as well as an official Certificate of Origin from Alfa Romeo, confirming delivery date and destination. The last owner bought the car in 2011 as a restoration project and has lovingly cared for it since then, with over £60,000 spent on various works from 2012 until present with Alfa Romeo specialists, Classic Alfa. The whole project was overseen by an ex Alfa-Romeo technician who fitted the parts at the client's workshop.The history file documents all the work carried out on the car with a vast number of invoices detailing all the Alfa Romeo parts as supplied by Classic Alfa. Included in these works was a full respray to Avorio, interior retrim in Rosso leather, and a significant mechanical overhaul to the engine and running gear. The car also maintains its original hardtop roof, painted body colour. The Giulia Spider is certainly one of the most attractive Alfa Romeos ever produced and remains highly regarded to this day. The Giulia was famously described by Cars Illustrated as 'one of the most delightful small sports cars which will ever be produced'. This example would be a great addition to any classic car collection and the perfect car for a summer's evening open-top cruise!

About Alfa Romeo
Alfa Romeo was initially founded in 1907 in Naples to prepare a French origin Darracq-cars for sale in Italy.The company did not fare particularly well, so the Italians investors took over the company, which was given the new name of the ALFA (Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili) . Nicola Romeo took over the company in 1918 turning it into ALFA ROMEO.
In 1933 Alfa Romeo was rescued again this time by the government, turning Alfa Romeo into an instrument of Mussolini's Italy, a national emblem that produced luxorious cars for the rich.
However, pre WWII Alfa Romeo is best remembered by its classic Grand Prix cars;
The Vittorio jano designed Alfa Romeo P2 that won the inaugural Automobile World Championship in 1925, the sensational P3 which won its first race driven by Tazio Nuvolari at the Italian Grand Prix, 5 more Grands Prix that year by Nuvolari and Rudolf Caracciola,
As well as, those racing sports cars; the 6C 1750, that Tazio Nuvolari won the Mille Miglia in, the 8C 2300 that won the Le Mans 24 Hours from 1931 to 1934, and finally 8C 2900.
Alfa Corse closed for 1933 and eventually transferred them to Enzo Ferrari's now privatised 'factory' team Scuderia Ferrari
Post war Alfa Romeo might be best remembered by the all alloy Alfa Romeo Twin Cam Hemi engine produced from 1954 to 1994 or those 60's Italian films that all seem to present that quintesential Alfa Giulietta driven by The Carabinieri.
Today any classic Alfa Romeo make a great addition to an Italian car enthusiast's portfolio.
