1963 Alfa Romeo GIULIA SPIDER ERRATUM: Please note that the car is currently fitted with 165 tyres instead of the original 155. French registration Chassis no. AR 373996 The early 1950s marked a new era for the Biscione brand with the production of the Giulietta, powered by a 1,290 cm3 twin-shaft aluminium engine; 1962 saw the appearance of the Spider Giulia 1600: although aesthetically similar to its older sibling, the mechanicals were revised with the fitting of the 1,570 cm3 engine from the Giulia TI, which was more powerful, flexible and reliable than the 1,290 cm3, and the gearbox was changed to a 5-speed synchronised gearbox. According to its Alfa Romeo "Certificato di Origine", this car was sold new in February 1963 by the American importer in the elegant colour combination of Blu Celeste with black interior, which it still wears today. Important historical file dating back to 1974! At that time, the car was in the hands of a certain K. Holloway, who sold it in 1981 to P. Schiller of Sacramento. The Giulia was then sent to Germany, where it underwent a major restoration (see photo file). Today, the car is in a very good state of preservation, reflecting the overall quality of the restoration and the care it has received from its current owner since 2014. Its mechanical condition is very good, and the meticulous maintenance carried out over the last 10 years is documented in the file, with recent work including the replacement of the front drum brakes with discs and the purchase of a new alpaca soft top. A very attractive valuation for the most legendary of Italian Spiders; collectors, enthusiasts and lovers, this is the ideal ticket to the Dolce Vita this summer!
