Update 2\/21\/12: <\/strong>This car has turned up<\/a> on LA Craigslist for $24,500.\u00a0 Give Sergio a call!\u00a0 Thanks for the notice Anthony.<\/p>\n

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

That rear view mirror is STILL upside down.\u00a0 Good luck.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Update 10\/27\/11: <\/strong>Statement by me: “I’m guessing it’s a late 60 – 62 Spider 10103 1300.”\u00a0 I was right -one of the last 1300 Spiders -370324.\u00a0 Buy it now<\/a> is reduced.\u00a0 Pictures are better -still has a 750 head and Miata seats.\u00a0 $29,000?\u00a0 Greig?\u00a0 Laurence? Definition of restoration discussion ensues.<\/p>\n

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

A positive ID.<\/strong><\/p>\n

10\/12\/11: Giulietta Spider 1495*03690<\/a>.\u00a0 <\/strong>This car is on eBay right now<\/a> out of Salt Lake City.\u00a0 Seller claims it’s ‘nearing the end of the restoration’ -I think that might be a mis-statement.\u00a0 It can be yours buy it now for $32,000 – I don’t recommend that.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Smooth hood, vent windows -should be after about vin 09000.\u00a0 Paint looks as good as it usually does in small pictures.\u00a0 Whats the yellow thing in the marker light position?\"\"<\/a>Well, it’s got vent windows on both sides!\u00a0 Front wheel here is a Borrani -the rest are Fergats.\u00a0 Details details…<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>61 on tail lights -so it’s definitely not car 03690.\u00a0 Everything looks so-so back here.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Ummm -not sure if this is tan truck bed-liner or a very carefully glued down tan carpet.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Seller says the seats are Miata because the originals were ‘basket cases’.\u00a0 Everything looks tired.\u00a0 Rear view mirror is an SS or Sprint item and upside down.\u00a0 Dash cover is a 1600 item.\u00a0 Carpet looks -well, I’ll let George decide.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Radiator is not a Spider item.\u00a0 Vin plate is where they usually are on later German cars.\u00a0 Engine has a 750 head.\u00a0 Check out where the heater valve is.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Vin plate is for a Spider Veloce 750F 03893.\u00a0 Oddly this vin is on my Veloce register.\u00a0 I’m guessing this is not the vin plate for this car.\u00a0 Should have screws -not modern rivets.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>European 10103 vin plate.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>For all it’s er… problems it probably runs and drives okay -it’s an Alfa after all and parts from 30+ years of models will all bolt together.<\/strong><\/p>\n

So what is to be made of this car?\u00a0 I’m guessing it’s a late 60 – 62 Spider 10103 1300.\u00a0 Engine hopefully is a 750 engine.\u00a0 I don’t know if a 750 head will bolt on a 101 engine but I doubt it.\u00a0 Incorrect either way.\u00a0 I can’t say is it’s recklessly or ingenuously <\/strong>misrepresented, but either way it’s a bitsa.\u00a0 Bid accordingly.\u00a0 Oh, and if you find out what the vin is, let me know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
