Update 3\/2\/13: \u00a0<\/strong>Seller pulled the auction making me think it either didn’t seem like it was going to recoup their investment if the no reserve auction was allowed to play out, or they sold it off eBay. \u00a0Not sure which is more likely…<\/p>\n

Update 2\/9\/13:\u00a0<\/strong>This car is\u00a0available again on eBay\u00a0<\/a>out of Santa Barbara from someone who knows their Alfa’s if the garage it’s in is any indication. \u00a0I had this listed as 11337, but it’s 11332. \u00a0Looks pretty good all cleaned up!<\/p>\n

\"IMG_3268_zps4a6d6383\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Scrappy. \u00a0Just needs some work and a few rare parts like the firewall mounted air box.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"IMG_3284_zpsa2371721\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You can see the correct shade of gray here. \u00a0These are very valuable original tail light lenses.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"IMG_3295_zpsea3fc24b\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Really does look better with rattle-canned wheels and a quick polish. \u00a0Note garage mate behind it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Update 2\/23\/12:\u00a0 <\/strong>There have been some questions about this cars vin number that have come up in emails and comments.\u00a0 Here’s the deal: factory Parts Manual lists Giulietta Spider Veloce 10125 as a US market car -basically a US market 10107, with an 00106 type Veloce engine and a vin range of 1495 80001 – 11900.\u00a0 Alfa vin numbers for this vin range were shared by the 10103, 10104 and 10107 cars, so whether or not it’s a Veloce depends on the individual car.\u00a0 d’Amico and Tabucchi identify all the vin numbers sold as Veloce’s (they went through the factories hand written records to get the numbers) and as pertains specifically to this car, list the range of body numbers 11302 – 11395.\u00a0 This car is unquestionably, in my opinion as based on good information sources, a Veloce.<\/p>\n

Giulietta Spider Veloce 10125*1133<\/a>2, 00106.\u00a0 <\/strong>This car is on eBay right now<\/a> out of a long dry sleep in a Georgia barn, where it did suffer some corrosion, but avoided any, and seemingly all poorly executed, but good intentioned hands.\u00a0 Seller’s description of the rust is potentially optimistic, but comprehensive pictures should bear things out.\u00a0 This is the sort of car that makes the best restoration candidate -yielding the highest standard car if properly executed, since all the parts have always been together, as assembled by the factory.\u00a0 I would dearly love to get my hands on a Spider Veloce like this -my favorite color combo even.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Front end appears to be largely untouched.\u00a0 Passenger door fit is really good.\u00a0 A good scrub up and polish would have this car looking really good.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Interior here looks amazing -should clean up very nicely.\u00a0 Will probably be restored to the highest standard and these, maybe close to as nice original items as exist will be lost.\u00a0 I hope they take a lot of pictures of it in its original state.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Floor does look good.\u00a0 Hey Kip- there’s another one of those accessory trouble light sockets on the fuse box.\u00a0 Look at how great that transmission tunnel carpet looks.\u00a0 Would clean up amazing.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Gauges have a nice even patina.\u00a0\u00a0 Dash paint looks amazing.\u00a0 Crack in steering wheel.\u00a0 Preservation class I say!<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Little rust here.\u00a0 What’s up with the black undercoating?\u00a0 My first Alfa, a TI came out of Georgia and had black undercoating like this all over everything.\u00a0 Not easy to remove.\u00a0 Note original Romablock hose clamps.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

All just sort of how it should be other than neglected.<\/strong>\u00a0 Airbox not in place here is in another picture.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hello my name is…<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>Great car.\u00a0 Really great car.\u00a0 Look for a surprising result if it doesn’t sell before auctions end.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
