1991 Alfa Romeo Spider Base Convertible, 80k Miles, Original Paint, No Reserve!
1991 Alfa Romeo Spider
You're looking at my base model 1991 Alfa Romeo Spider with 80k original miles. This is a fun little car. Overall the car is really nice for being 32 years old. Original paint still looks very good overall. It has never been in any accidents. There are a few light scratches on the passenger side along the body crease lines (zoom in on passenger side pic to see...not horrible, just disclosing). It must have just brushed against something in a garage at some point. It's not dented, just light scrapes along the crisp body indent edges. I think a pinstripe could hide most of it if you choose not to paint it.
There is a small rust spot about the size of a quarter on each rocker at the back edge above the rocker covers (common spot due to soft top drains getting clogged). There is no rust behind the rocker covers from what I can tell. Dog legs, longitudinals, and door jambs are rock solid. Floors and frame rails are also rock solid (see last pic). There's a small amount of bubbling/paint flaking along the cowl edges on both sides where the welting goes. I'm sure a paint shop could blend all these mentioned areas without doing a full respray. I haven't found any more rust on the car anywhere. The car is a driver and looks great from a few feet away. Even with these minor flaws it still attracts lots of attention. It's a cool little car, and quite rare! How often do you these driving down the road?! Like almost never!
The cloth soft top is in great shape and looks almost new. Rear plastic window is clear and supple.
The leather and suede seats are in excellent shape. Still supple and no staining or discoloration to speak of. Door panels are in great shape. Carpets and mats are in nice shape. Dash is nice with only 2 small cracks behind the center vents.
Car runs and drives good. Clutch is very good with no slippage or chattering. Synchros are excellent with no grinding at all. Brakes need bled as they're a little soft but they stop the car just fine. Tires are almost brand new with maybe 100 miles on them.
Passenger window switch needs replaced (inop). Original radio isn't turning on but could be something simple like a fuse. There's a small crack in the windshield in the driver's side lower corner. Tach is inop but speedometer and odometer are working fine. Car runs very good and doesn't smoke at all. Holds idle and temp well. Car cruises well down the road.
Some extra parts are in the trunk that will be included. There's a new trunk emblem, 4 Quadrifoglio style hub caps for steel wheels, repair manual, and original owners manual among a few other things.
This is a great opportunity to get into a nice Spider at a great price. I bought this for my son but he wants a Dodge Challenger. I'm starting the auction at $6,000 with NO RESERVE. Final bid wins.
