Sprint Speciales are why I started this blog. Below are the 2010 SS sales I recorded including the sale of my own two cars. Seems like prices have gotten a little more realistic for middle of the road cars. Enjoy.
Market 250 was 2 cars, the cheaper of which was SS 10121*380211, quite rusty but with matching engine selling for $6500.

2010 Sprint and Sprint Veloce market review
As usual there were fewer Sprints than Spiders. Other than some repeat customers, it was a lot of cars coming out of hiding. Looks like you need to get in to the high teens money-wise to get into something that moves under its own power.  As usual they are presented in order of cheapest to most expensive.
Market 262 was Sprint 10105 20827, for sale out of Pennsylvania for $750 -probably the cheapest Sprint of the year.

2010 Spider and Spider Veloce market review
2010 saw a lot of Spiders change hands around the world, from the roughest of the probably-impossible projects to the top of the market concours trailer queens. I did my best to take little snapshots as they passed with pictures matched to vin numbers and sale prices, but I probably missed a bunch. Anyway, here they are, cheapest to most expensive. Where no sale price was recorded I made an educated guess. Last year I had more time so I did the Veloce’s separate -this year they are combined. Lot of cars this year!
Market 230 was abomination “Jiuliet Spider Velosh” 750F*04640 selling for $1136.

Market 278: Stalled V8 conversion (phew) 750D
Giulietta Spider 750D 1495*03133. This car sold on eBay out of the SF Bay Area for $2749.99 after a reserve met no sale the week before at $4615.
Note the abbreviated firewall. You’ll need to address this if your going to go original rather than Ford V8. Wheel well flairs don’t look too bad.

Market 275: Refreshed red Spider in California
Giulietta Spider 10103/4 1495*08598. This car is on eBay right now out of Moss Beach California. Seller describes as it as a street quality restoration -I’d call it more of a refresh, but either way it’s a nice car with no immediate needs and the bones to be a really nice car with some attention to detail focused fiddling.
Paint almost looks wet. Door and hood shut lines look really good. Chrome is described as all new. A Ducati 900 SS beside it?

Market 273: Sprint Veloce from Market 72
Giulietta Sprint Veloce 750E 1493*06930, 1315*31248. This car, on eBay right now, first hit the giuliettas dot com radar in December of 2008 with Market 72 -a racer that had a little mishap in the parking lot ending up with it running into a trailer. As it is presented now, the bodywork up front has been done and the car resprayed along with some light detailing. Asking price has been upped from $28,000 to $32,500.
The car looks to have been lowered since the last time it appeared for sale. Repairs to the front look pretty good as does the paint -though it’s very hard to tell the quality of a white paint job from pictures.

Market 272: Sorry Sprint in the French countryside
Olivier in France turned me on to this Sprint. He says it’s likely near Bourgogne. Car looks pretty rough but complete and in ‘as parked’ condition- kind of how my Sprint would look if I disappeared in South America for 20 years and it found itself rolled out into a wet field in which to await my return.
Eventually there wont be any Sprints like this. I think what happens on the hood is water gets in the holes the hood spear attaches through and the water fills the lowest front edge of the hood with water and it rots. On my car it gets in and fills up the spark plug holes.

Market 277: 1300 Spider Project in the snow
This unidentified Giulietta Spider sold recently on eBay for $4550 after 15 bids. Sale included an extra engine and some other stuff. If anyone caught the vin number of this let me know!
This is a good ‘as found’ shot. Worth restoring just so you can show this picture beside the finished car.

Market 276: Good 101 Sprint project 20004
Giulietta Sprint 10105 1493*20004. I didn’t write about this one while it was active, but it went unsold after 16 bids brought it to $8522. Very original interior remains and all in all the seller is correct that this should be a straight forward project. Heck, maybe just do the brakes, clean out the carb and go for it!
Yep, metallic black. No, really. Rockabilly-bling!

Market 271: early SS racer in Italy
Giulietta SS 10120*00215. This car is listed on Luzzago at the moment out of Italy. It has been modified quite a bit for racing but looks as though the removal of some decals and moving toward a more stock interior might yield a fun street racer.
Headlight covers aren’t my thing and the grill is from who knows what, but under here is an SS.
