1958 Alfa Romeo Guilietta Spider Convertible on 2040-cars

Year:1958 Mileage:68446
Location:

Bristol, Connecticut, United States

Bristol, Connecticut, United States

This car is part of my private collection.  The car is all original that I know of with the exception of the radio. The engine number does not match.  This car was completely restored in 1973 by a dealer in Connecticut.  There is no rot and is in actually in really good overall extremely solid condition. The rocker panels are great.  There were some paint bubbles that I sanded and primed over to preserve as you can see in the pics.  I have since buffed out the nose of the car and have included the after photos.  The car looks great just from what I did to the front nose since the primer spots are now down to a minimum.

Things that have been done to the car:  new clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing, rebuilt master cylinder, new brakes and cylinders, fuel system cleaned.  The car was running, I have not started it in a while.  The body is straight, the doors close like butter and all the electrical is in tact.  All the glass is great, window cranks work.  The interior is in decent shape, the leather seats could use either replacing or some new stuffing, there are a couple of small tears.  The top has holes in it and will need replacing.  The tires and leather suspension straps need replacing.  All of the chrome pieces are on the car. Some dents on the grill. All can use a re-chroming.

The car looks great in person, its really dusty in the pics.  It has been sitting in dry storage.  Forgot to mention it was undercoated underneath in 1973, no rot there either.

A light restore for immediate driving or a further in depth restore for the articulate collector.  This car is an excellent candidate in exceptional condition, not like some of the other cars you see of the same year.  Overall with a bit of love and attention she could be a better gem than she already is.  Good Luck Bidding.

Please do not bid if you are not serious or if you have bad feedback.  I take pride in my 100% positive feedback.

The car is located in Bristol Connecticut.

Alfa Romeo considering Ferrari-developed engines for new product lineup

Sun, 06 Apr 2014

A report in Bloomberg adds more details to the plans for Alfa Romeo's fourth turnaround plan in Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne's tenure, and this time Ferrari is apparently going to be part of the show. In December Automotive News Europe reported that a new Maserati-derived rear-drive architecture would be the centerpiece at Alfa Romeo, as well as coming Chrysler and Dodge products. At the time, ANE said the platform would support a new midsize sedan and wagon perhaps to be called Giulia, a fullsize sedan and a midsize crossover, with retail appearance of the product initiative commencing perhaps as soon as next year. It would be part of Fiat's $12.3-billion spend on new models and European recovery.
The Bloomberg report says that particulars haven't been finalized, but the plan is to have six new Alfas appear over the next five years, two of which would be SUVs. The futures of the Mito and Giulietta, two of the three cars Alfa currently sells and 99 percent of sales last year, aren't assured, meaning that the lineup in six years could be seven cars (including the 4C), six of which we haven't any definitive clue of yet. The top-tier versions of those cars, according to the report - perhaps the Quadrifoglio Verde - "will be equipped with motors developed by Ferrari."
Marchionne wants to get sales up to 300,000 units per year when the lineup is complete, pairing Alfa sales with Jeep's global dealer network to open up the retail channel. That kind of volume would get Fiat's Italian plants back in business properly, even though Marchionne's stance on Italy-only Alfa production would mean the end of the anticipated roadster that was to be twinned with the coming Mazda MX-5 Miata. Alfa's direction will be laid out in Detroit in May as part of the overall strategy presentation for Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV.

Marchionne uses racial epithet to describe what must power future Alfa Romeo models

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Sergio Marchionne and his Fiat empire have a lot riding on the US return of the Alfa Romeo brand. The endeavor has been in progress for what feels like a lifetime - certainly for as long as Fiat has had the Chrysler brand under its Italian wing.
It's not surprising that Fiat CEO Marchionne needs a perfect first Alfa to mark a return to America. And here's where things get dicey. Nobody would argue with Marchionne's insistence that Alfa Romeo's be powered by Italian engines - as Marchionne himself is quoted to have said at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, "There are some things that are well done in Italy."
If not what he said, then, it's how he said it that has eyebrows raised. "I cannot come up with a schlock product, I just won't. I won't put an American engine into that car. With all due respect to my American friends, it needs to be a wop engine." Wait, what's that?

Alfa Romeo to launch eight new products by 2018, increase sales to 400K units

Tue, 06 May 2014



Alfa Romeo will go back to being the brand people admire, according to CEO Harald Wester.
After a few streams of news on the various brands in the Fiat Chrysler family, here's the deluge we've been waiting for - Alfa Romeo. The legendary Italian brand is being pointed towards a renaissance, as shown by the brand's five-year plan.
