1972 Alfa Romeo Gt Junior on 2040-cars
Tustin, California, United States
|
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. |

After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.
Chrysler appoints new heads of Alfa Romeo and Ram
Mon, 18 Aug 2014Chrysler has announced to two key appointments to its senior leadership, both of them taking immediate effect. First up is Reid Bigland, who has been named head of the Alfa Romeo brand for North America. Bigland has served until now as head of the Ram Truck brand, a portfolio he now hands over to Robert Hegbloom, who had served until now as its director.
As a result of the appointments, both Bigland and Hegbloom will take up seats on Chrysler's NAFTA Leadership Team, and Bigland will also join the Fiat Chrysler Group Executive Council - the highest decision-making body in the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles empire.
As per Sergio Marchionne's leadership style, Bigland will continue to serve in two major capacities, maintaining his role as president and CEO of Chrysler Canada. Other senior executives who hold multiple key portfolios include Harald Wester (who serves as the group's Chief Technology Officer and also overseas Alfa Romeo, Maserati and Abarth), Olivier Francois (group Chief Marketing Officer and head of the Fiat brand) and Michael Manley (head of the Asia-Pacific region and the Jeep brand).
Mazda engineers urging execs for more RWD models
Wed, 02 Oct 2013According to Edmunds, Mazda engineers are pressuring the company to create more rear-wheel-drive models, in an effort to better differentiate itself from its rivals. This push is reportedly coming from middle and senior engineers within the company, and these folks at Mazda believe this rear-drive strategy would allow the automaker to produce more distinctive, fun to drive cars. Mazda discontinued the rear-drive (and rotary-engined) RX-8 a few years ago, leaving the MX-5 Miata as the company's only RWD offering.
As enthusiasts, we're fully on board with Mazda offering more rear-drive cars, but unsurprisingly, the company's top management isn't exactly keen on the idea - and with good reason. First and foremost, the cost associated with redesigning fresh architecture for new models would be very high, and considering the fact that Mazda hasn't exactly been raking in the dough lately, an expensive new venture like this doesn't make a whole lot of sense. What's more, Mazda's latest front-drive models - the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5 - have been very well-received, and are helping the company gain sales momentum.
But that doesn't mean there aren't other options. Edmunds reminds us that Mazda is already partnering with Alfa Romeo on the next-generation Miata, and if this collaboration is successful, perhaps the relationship could bear additional fruit. After all, Alfa Romeo is said to be working on returning to its rear-wheel-drive roots, so Mazda's engineers might be able to make a case for more RWD goodness after all.
