\u00a0Auction text:\u00a0 “You are bidding for what is probably one of the rarest cars to make it onto Ebay. A 1963 Alfa Romeo\u00a0Giulia Sprint.\u00a0 <\/span>I have listed this car as a Giulietta Sprint but it is the even\u00a0rarer “tipo 10112\u00a0Giulia Sprint”. (chassis number 356956).\u00a0 <\/span>The Giulia sprints were built between 1962-1964 using Giulietta bodyshells but with1600 engines and 5 speed gearboxes for more power. Hand painted in Red primer this particular example has just found its way out of a barn after 26 years in hibernation.\u00a0 <\/span>Still running on its original engine\u00a0but fitted with a Veloce head and twin webers. The engine turns over nicely & fires. I had this car running sweet last week with no smoke, knocks or rattles\u00a0but the carbs could really do with a clean out.\u00a0One mod on this car is the\u00a0floor handbrake, but I have the original dashboard handbrake & also the downdraught solex carb & manifiold if you would prefer to put back to standard.\u00a0 <\/span>The car was imported from Italy in 1964 & has had just 3 UK owners. I have the V5 & original green logbook.\u00a0 <\/span>You can see from the pictures that this car has had substantial amounts of bodywork while in storage. The body is sound & all the welding has been done excluding the lip on the rear bootlid.\u00a0\u00a0There is some distortion on the bottom of both doors & front wings caused by Gas welding. This could be easily rectified by a good panel beater. This car is now virtualy rust free & ready to go off to the paint shop.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bodywork repairs include:<\/span><\/p>\n

Replaced front & rear valance<\/span><\/p>\n

Replaced Inner & outer seals<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Replaced inner wheel arches<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Replaced boot floor.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Door bottoms & lower front wings.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Interior. I have the door panels & front & rear seat frames but all these have been attacked by rats so needs complete new upholstery or maybe just a bucket seat & cage if you want to go racing.\u00a0The headlining could be saved.<\/span><\/p>\n

Under floor.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

All work has been carried out under the floor with all new copper brake pipes & rebound straps & anti roll bar bushes & sound floor pans.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are only several parts missing but these are easy to obtain in th UK from specialists or off the web in the USA.<\/span><\/p>\n

Front centre grill<\/span><\/p>\n

Bonnet strip<\/span><\/p>\n

both door glasses<\/span><\/p>\n

I have set the reserve at a reasonable price as these cars are now commanding over \u00a320,000 when restored correctly.<\/span><\/p>\n

I forgot to mention. The 4 rims inside the car are the original that have been sandblasted & primed. These will come with the vehicle not the rims shown on the car.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>You are welcome to come & view before auction ends. Overseas bidders welcome but you will need to arrange your own shipping.”<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"sprint<\/a>You can see the line of repair on the door and just in front of the rear wheel.\u00a0 That’s some psychedelic carpet\/flooring under there.\u00a0 Car is missing\u00a0door glass on both sides.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Sprint<\/a>I’d be tempted to leave the lip off the back end.\u00a0 There’s the elusive (state-side anyway) license plate bracket\/frame.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

\"sprint<\/a>Trunk floor looks good from what can be seen.\u00a0 My car has a similar\u00a0boot lid prop.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Sprint<\/a>The business.\u00a0 Needs carbs cleaned out.\u00a0 Said to have a Veloce head.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Sprint<\/a>Borrani wheels need finishing.\u00a0 Dash looks decent.\u00a0 Is that an earlier style speedometer?\u00a0 Note floor mounted handbrake.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another day, another\u00a0Sprint\u00a0project.\u00a0 I think this will get snapped up by some UK based Giulietta fan to transfer a lot of good parts onto from their rusty car.\u00a0 In the states this is a mid-market car if repairs prove sound and an inventory of the parts\u00a0comes up correct.\u00a0 That it runs and potentially drives without much fuss is a big plus for this car.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
