Market 381: SS 177325 Retired Scuderia Del Portello race car

Giulietta Sprint Speciale 10120*177325.  This car wears Milano plates and is available from Luzzago right now.  There are many pictures of it racing from 1987 – 1996, after which it was retired, set up for street use and apparently given somewhat of a restoration.  There is no asking price stated for this car.  Check out the link in the vin above -lots of pictures of this car racing1

There are a lot of pictures like this -blurry race shots that evoke days gone by and racing fun.  Fergats have a reputation for breaking under heavy use.  I wonder if this guy suffered any breaks?

Market 330: Giuliettas.com exclusive Giulietta SS project

Update 2/5/12:  This car has sold to an enthusiast in the states.  Stay tuned for more interesting Giulietta’s for sale.

Update 1/15/12: This car remains unsold.  The seller is ready to put it on eBay, where I think it will do better than his asking price.  This is your last chance to buy before it goes on eBay.

Update 10/27/11: I heard from the seller that he has had some strong offers.  If you are interested in the car and are moving at a pre-internet pace deciding if it’s the project for you, you might want to light a fire under yourself.  I doubt a matching number early Giulietta SS with all it’s pieces is going to come on the market in project form at this price for a long while.

10/18/11: Giulietta Sprint Speciale 10120*00381.  Another Giuliettas.com exclusive.  This SS is available now out of the North East for offers around $27,000.  Seller says it’s complete with original 00120 engine, seats, glass etc.  Not a bad deal for the DIY restorer.  Get it now or pay the dealer tax!  Contact me for the sellers email at sprints @ giuliettas.com.

I wish I started here with my first SS project!  Nose has a little bend, drivers fender top has a dent.  Not too bad really.

Market 377: SS 00158 in Portugal

Giulietta Sprint Speciale 10120*00158, 00120*00518.  Henrick sent me a note alerting me to this cars presence on Anamera.  It looks to be a pretty well maintained car, with an especially nice, mostly original looking interior.  Asking price is a reasonable €38,000 -well, reasonable if the underside of the car looks as good as the rest!  Always interesting to see a car surface that’s not on my register -I’m at 110 Giulietta Sprint Speciales on my register -that’s approaching 10% of production surviving.

I like cars in a blue so dark it looks black.  Paint looks good, trim and all is right for a nice driver.

Market 374: Giulietta SS racer in Italy

Giulietta Sprint Speciale 10120, 00120.  This unknown SS is for sale out of Italy for €35,000.  It has the road-racer treatment that seems to get applied to cars that need restoration work to gloss over their short-comings -though this example looks to have been used on the track some.  These are valuable enough that cars like this one will enter an original-ification program before long.

Looks decent.  Paint on the hood barely matches that on the rest of the car.  Picture it without the decals or ‘cage and it could be a decent event car.  Sorry -I’m not a fan of a bunch of stickers all over a car like this.

Market 372: SS 00216 in Italy

Update later the same day:  This car was also Market 208, before I had the vin #.  Asking price has increased a bit since April of 2010.

Giulietta Sprint Speciale 10120*00216, 00120*0????.  Maurizo sent me an email to notify me that this car is on Autoscout.  Car looks to be a nice mix of preserved and restored, with a highly detailed engine compartment.  Asking price is 65,000 Euro’s or about $83,800.

With this background, it almost looks like it’s in prison.  All the usual praise applies here, the trim, fit etc all look right.  Rear end suspension is lower than usual.

Sprint Speciale 2011 market review

2011 was a good year for SS’s, I tracked 24 sales, with the average price seeming to have climbed a bit since last year, and even scary projects starting above $15,000.  Lownose 00061 at over $200K is a highlight, but I think Market 294 might have been the highlight of the year, despite the 105/115 Spider nose grafted on.

Market 332 was this Giulia SS in Italy.  I think the asking price was 20,000 euro’s.  Probabaly worth about $15,000 as a parts car.

 Market 297 was SS 00358, available in Europe for $18,800.

Market 360: SS 381261 in Burlingame

1/4/12: I have it from several sources that this car has been sold.

Giulia SS 10121*381261.  Kip sent me an email to let me know this SS is available now from Cammisa motors in Burlingame for $89,000.  Car was a German market car, not sure if it had any final assembly done there like the earlier Giulietta’s that NSU did final prep on.  Color Combo is excellent.  Seems to be priced fairly considering some of the project prices seen this year.

That’s a handsome creature!  Good color, good panel fit, great trim fit and clean.  Anyone have $90K I can borrow?

Market 332: Rough Giulia SS in Italy

This car is available right now on Italian eBay.  It appears to be very complete and very rusty.  I think pictures of this car were on the AlfaBB a few months ago.  One of the Italian readers care to call the seller and find out which car this is?  As a restoration object it’s going to be a challenge.  As a parts car it will be very helpful and yield a lot of extras that can be sold off.  Check it out.
It’s a shame.  This was probably a nice car that suffered a minor fault, was parked and let to rot.  Someone will take this project on and spend a mint -at least it’s worth big $ when done.

Market 324: Rough SS project 177353

Update October 1 2015: Now in Germany.  Anamera doesn’t show when an ad was made active – this one just says “as of 9/12/2011.”
Update September 12 2011: Beverly Hills Car Club is the lucky dealer who gets to add the dealer tax/toll between the end buyer and first seller of this car.  I guess it’s sort of like interest on money loaned.  Anyway, they scrubbed it up, added $7000 to the price and have it listed.

Taking turd polish to new heights!  Original bosphoro blue is a great color -if it had its original engine it would be an even better car to restore.  Lot’s of work to do but someone will do it.  Judging by the tires this thing has been off the road a LONG time.  Lots more pictures here.
Update September 3 2011: Sold for the Buy it Now price to the man in the big yellow hat!
Giulia Sprint Speciale 10120*177353.  Been a while since we had a rough SS on the site, but this car on eBay right now makes up for the lack.  Needs a lot and when you get it apart it will need a lot more.  Price of $19,500 BIN is not too bad really.  Lets see, 177061 has failed to bring more than $85,000 on eBay despite being a really nice example, take $19,500 from that leaves $65,500.  $20,000 in bodywork, $10,000 in paint, $10,000 drive train rebuild (and still not correct)… you get the idea.  If you want one and are handy with tools though, who knows.
It’s an SS, it has some glass, it’s on 4 wheels, it doesn’t have any huge dents.  So far so good.

Market 321: SS 177468 at Barons

Update 8/28/11:  The auction for this car will be on September 19th at Sandown Park Race course -you have to preregister but can call in a bid.  I also got a bunch of high resolution pictures that show this to be a very very nice example.
Very nice luster to the paint, detailing in the new pictures is very clean.  No excuses amazing.
Interior looks amazing -be sure to check out the other pictures linked above -lots of good detail shots.  Red with gray is a very attractive combo.
Giulietta Sprint Speciale 10121*177468.  This car is to be (or was -not sure) auctioned by Barons.  Car is a late Giulietta probably with 3 shoe brakes up front.  Auction estimate is 40 – 44000 pounds -in the neighborhood of $70,000.
Looking good!  Door gaps are nearly invisible.  Wheels are Borrani type.  Very red.
