1988 Alfa Romeo Spider Quadrifoglio

You're viewing my 1988 Alfa Romeo Spider Quadrifoglio with just over 104k original, unmolested miles. The car has always been adult owned and properly maintained. I purchased the car last summer from the shop owner that serviced the car for the original owner for many years. As you can see, she looks beautiful for her age...over 30 years old! She has had one respray in her original color. The paint looks great and has quite a good shine. There is no rust anywhere on the car and it is straight as an arrow. There are a few very minor dings here and there, but nothing that detracts from her beauty. Any paintless dent repair guy can easily remove them. They are minimal and never bothered me enough to fool with.
The Quadrifoglio edition is a gorgeous combination of special rocker treatment, special rims, 3 tone (grey/black/red) interior with leather seats, and a unique hardtop. The removeable hardtop is very nice to have in the Fall/Winter months, and gives the car a really cool unique look when installed. The soft top is in good condition, and is stowed away under the bonnet.
The interior of the car is original and unmolested, down to the original factory cassette stereo. The dash is original (not a cap) and is in excellent shape with only one very tiny crack close to the windshield between the 2 center vents. The seats are in exceptional shape (most I've seen are garbage by now). The red carpet is in good shape overall, with minor wear on the driver's sill from getting in and out. Trunk carpet looks great. All glass is in very good shape. This year Spider has the automatic seat belt retractors which are a little funky, and from what I've been told, can be eliminated/bypassed if so desired.
When I purchased the car, the following work was performed ($2,400):New oil/filter, changed brake fluid.New ignition wires, new plugs, and new distributor cap.New fuel filter.New battery.New clutch kit/throw out bearing.New muffler/complete exhaust from engine back.
Mechanically the car is very sound. The motor fires right up and sounds very healthy. The tranny feels good with no synchro issues to speak of. It might need a clutch master cylinder soon as sometimes I have to pump the pedal a few times to prime it, then it's fine for a while. If I were keeping the car I might also eventually upgrade the suspension bushings as I believe they're original.
I collect and restore mostly old air cooled Porsches and have always loved these gorgeous Alfas. I have 11 collector cars and I'm selling off several that I really just don't use. This is a nice little car that will make the new owner happy for many miles to come. I recently purchased a slant nose 911 project that I'm focusing my time and energy on, so this must go.
