Update 12/12/12:Â A reader has commented that this car has sold for $42,000 and another reminded me that the Craigslist price was $18,000 obo. Â Such a deal!
Giulietta Sprint 750B 1493*09141, 1315*07630. Â Cosmopolitan Motors appears to have been the ones who picked up this car that was sold out of an estate sale a while back for $20,000 OBO. Â A few guys who I correspond with on occasion were trying to buy it so I looked at pictures of it a few times back then – unfortunately I didn’t save any. Â Looks like a really nice original-ish car. Â I wonder what the current asking is?? Â Thanks for sending me this Zen.
One could definitely do worse than this as Sprints go. Â Has Autorouche (sp?) headlights same as Jeff has on his Giulia SS. Â Hood fits very very well.
Some improvements could be made to the interior, but it shows pretty well as is. Â I doubt the seat insert material is original. Â Very nice patina to the wheel, gauges etc. Â Note speaker on the passenger kick panel.
It looks decent under here but could be improved. Â Has a German build/assembly plate. Â No doubt a story there.
The rear reflectors all bleached out look neat. Â Tail lights original? Â I really like Sprints in white.
Positive ID.
No rust in the open rockers and a DS for a cell mate.
HE WHO HESITATES IS LOST ………………. THE CAR SOLD FOR $42,000
the original craigslist ad from july 23rd 2012 showed a single dismal picture the car in an over stuffed garage with lots boxes etc blocking a full view of it not to mention it had 20 years of dust accumulated on it. the asking price was $18,000 and it went for $15,000, i know this as I had contacted the estate’s selling agent and was the back up buyer with money in hand to buy it !
so close that time! *&^%$#$%
True enough – I do have the Autoroche headlights in my SS – They were in there when I bought it- I also saw a set in a Citroen ID-19 that was parked in my neighborhood for years…. my car spent time in Los Angeles – then came to the Bay Area in 1969….. Don’t know when the French headlights were added.
