1979 Alfa Romeo Alfetta Sprint Veloce
Survivor Car - No Rust - All Original Sheet Metal!

The car is finished in Ivory over black and powered by a 2.0-liter inline-four equipped with dual Weber carburetors with factory airbox and mated to a five-speed manual transaxle. Additional equipment includes 14″ BWA wheels, Euro-style bumpers, four-wheel disc brakes, a sunroof, a Marelli Plex ignition system, and a push-button AM/FM stereo. The 2.0-liter inline-four was reportedly rebuilt around 2009, at which time dual Weber carburetors and a Marelli Plex ignition system were installed.As noted above this car has the highly sought after Euro bumpers front and back. Not only do they add a cleaner more complimentary look to the design, but they also save tons of weight over the US version. It’s been repainted in its original “Avorie” color, Code AR103. The most remarkable thing about this Alfa Romeo is the lack of rust. This is a RUST FREE car with all original sheet metal, floors etc. The lack of rust here will allow the new owner to enjoy the car as is without costly and complicated rust repair commonly associated with Alfa Romeo ownership. The sills and rockers and inner engine bay fender areas are all RUST FREE. The paint is good, but not show quality. This car did have a "window out" paint job, so the trim is nice and clean without overspray. The 2 front factor spoilers and front grills are intact and not cracked.The car sports an OEM exhaust in good shape with no leaks. Bilstein shocks front and rear. Recent pads all the way around. Engine has a fresh oil and filter change. Also, for anyone knowing older Alfa’s, you’ll be glad to hear that the second gear synchro's are in good shape and there is no problem shifting into second gear with this car! The seats are in very good condition. See pictures.Comes with the hard-to-find 14x6” BWA alloy wheels that complement the exterior styling. Another BWA wheel is in the trunk as a spare. Tires are in new condition. Radio is not hooked up. This car has the factory sunroof. The plastic trim around the inner sunroof handle is missing, but the handle is there and fullyoperable.
