I’m selling my 1972 Alfa Romeo GT Junior European Model.  Originally sold on the 20th March 1972 in Bergamo Italy.  The color is “faggio” (color code: AR516), with Maremma wild boar tex interior.  I purchased the car from a local classic car dealer more than two years ago and apparently I’m the 3rd owner of the car.  The previous owner purchased the car from US serviceman that had owned the car while stationed in Italy.  At some point while still in Italy the engine was replaced with European 1750 engine. The car was imported into US in 2004.  The odometer shows 25,440 Km, and has obviously turned over.

Mechanically the car is in excellent condition.  The engine drives super strong; one of the strongest I have seen.  It accelerates fast and flawless; it pulls to 110 mph in no time. I drive the car every weekend and I have a blast driving it. There are no oil leaks, no white smoke, and or black smoke of any kind.  All electrics works fine including gages, lights, heater fan & wipers.  Tachometer and speedometer work fine with no issue.  The car drives solid and suspension is tight and corners outstanding.  The interior is all-original and it’s in good condition.  Dash has a dash cap and floor plastic cover is original and it’s in very good condition.  There are some rust bubbles on the upper lip of the trunk lid.  There is some rust around the driver and passenger floors side drain hole, and spare tire drain hole, likewise the driver side door is rusted. Lower front valence is pushed in, and as shown in the photos, the front bumper is tweaked as well.  Passenger side rocker door has a shallow dent.   Most importantly, the car does not have any rust around the front windshield or the rear window, which is a very common and difficult to deal with.  Both L& R rear quarter window areas are rust free as well.  The jack point and floor is in good shape as well.  The paint is good, however it is time for fresh paint as there are several spot where the clear coat has worn away.  The car is a perfect daily driver; some thing that you can drive hard and enjoy.             

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me, I will do my best to answer any questions that you may have.  This vehicle is being sold "as-is", with no warranty, expressed or implied. Vehicle is available for inspection prior bidding to purchase.   

 A non-refundable deposit of $500 is due within 24 hours of the auction close. The remaining balance is due within 5 days from the close of auction, unless other arrangements were made. Accepted payment methods are bank wire transfers, cashier's checks and money orders. If you wish to obtain financing, please do so ahead of time. I reserve the right to end the auction early. I also reserve the right to verify any or all bids to ensure exceptional auction integrity. Please do all your homework prior bidding. 

Please do not bid on this auction unless you are serious about owing this car.  Buyer is responsible for pickup or shipping. 
If you have less than 10 feedback please contact me for verification before bidding otherwise I will cancel your bid.

Alfa Romeo 8C, Maserati Quattroporte and Granturismo models recalled over rust fears

Mon, 20 May 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced Maserati and Alfa Romeo are recalling certain Quattroporte, Granturismo and 8C models over potentially faulty tie rod ends. According to NHTSA, 2005-2008 Quattroporte, 2008 Granturismo and 2008 8C units may have been assembled with tie rod ends that have insufficient corrosion protection. As such, the components may rust, weaken and potentially fail. If that happens, the driver could lose control of the vehicle and cause an accident.
Maserati and Alfa Romeo will contact owners and replace the tie rod end assemblies once the recall gets underway in June. All told, 7,438 vehicles are impacted by the recall. You can read the full NHTSA notice below for more information.

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.

Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.
