Giulietta Sprint 750 B 1493*05372, 1315*04810. <\/strong>This car, for sale\u00a0on Anamera <\/a>for 13,500 Euro’s or about $19,500, actually sits in Ventura California.\u00a0 The body has been primered to even out its appearance and protect it, but anyone taking this on will want to take it down to bare metal and start over.\u00a0 I’m surprised it is still available considering the lack of rust.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I think primer was a good idea, gives it a look of being ‘almost there’.\u00a0 Door and hood shut lines look pretty good and the nose is in great shape.\u00a0 This car must have been very near the end of the small headlight run.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>There is definitely some work to do here, but at least you don’t have to go through a bunch of welding and fabrication before you start it. <\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The rear of this series Sprint is great looking without bumpers and with the car lowered.\u00a0 Tail lights are the early Carello type.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a>\"\"<\/a>Floors pretty good – maybe a light patch in the passenger foot area then blast, seal against future rust and go.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>According to this picture the car was originally Celeste blue with dark blue interior -a great combo.\u00a0 That handle sticking out of the column is the shifter -usually touted as rare, but most of the early Sprints I’ve seen have it.\u00a0 Gauges actually look really good.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>All the stuff you want to see.\u00a0 Bakelite is missing from valve cover nuts.\u00a0 Exhaust manifold is early 4 into 1 style.\u00a0 I wonder if it turns over.\u00a0 Build plate is a little wrinkly.<\/strong><\/p>\n

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

\"\"<\/a>It’s got a very solid trunk floor. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Ad text: “1957 Giulietta Sprint 750 Series 1 “Small Headlight – Column Shift”<\/p>\n

Matching number engine. Very nice body with excellent door gaps. Good solid floors and trunk pan. I have the front and rear bumpers, but no headlight assemblies or other exterior trim. Originally powder blue. A great car to restore. This would make a fantastic event car. Great chance to acquire a rare early column shift Sprint at a reasonable price.<\/p>\n

VIN # 1493 05372
\nMotor # 1315 04810
\n(both numbers match alloy ID plate on firewall)<\/p>\n

Car is located in California. I am an experienced exporter and I can arrange shipment to many European ports for $995 via Los Angeles. “<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/a>This gives you an idea how clean the underside is.\u00a0 It also shows that the driveline components are undisturbed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Rockers look great, but then these open rockers usually do -even on rusty cars.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Price is strong considering the lack of some hard to find trim parts, but makes sense when the lack of rust is taken into account.\u00a0 It\u00a0would be a good car to combine with a rusty but complete parts car-\u00a0but that assumes someone would find any early Sprint, no matter how bad, a parts car.\u00a0 I’ve seen some really rusty cars repaired, and repaired well, especially in Europe.<\/p>\n
