Update 10/19/10: This car is now on eBay and features a lot of pictures. Also, I had the VIN wrong -it’s 10120*177423 (link is to more pictures) with engine number 00120*01775. I wonder if the seller from Hemmings knew they were selling it to a dealer?
Update 10/4/10: Driversource bought this car, gave it a polish and now you can buy it from them for $59,500.
Update 9/9/10: I have received word that this car has been sold. You snooze you lose!
Giulietta Sprint Speciale 10120*177423, 00120*01775. This car is for sale right now on Hemmings out of Belleville Michigan for $50,000 -not bad for a nice original car, just under 40K Euro’s.
Hello Gorgeous! I like them in white. Corner marker lights look a little far back on the fender, but maybe the one’s I’ve seen are too far forward.
White Giulietta’s tend to have blue and gray interiors -a somewhat restrained combo but very elegant. I’m not excited about the floor mats but appreciate that they are there to protect the carpets.
I was interested to read in the parts book that the 101 Veloce engines used the 4 blade aluminum fans after the rest went to 5 blade plastic on the rest. Everything looks correct and well cared for.
While this may seem like a lot of money I can tell you -as someone who has tried- that it’s easier to start with a nice car that you can barely afford than a cheap project that takes up a chunk of your remaining youth trying to get to the point of being roadworthy. This car is a good deal!
