Description
After 30 years of ownership I reluctantly must sell my 1957 Giulietta 750 Spider as I am moving abroad, so I am open to offers. The car is mechanically expertly maintained and was given a very good bare metal respray by Red Castle Classics four years ago, along with new leather upholstery. Since then, the car has been driven chiefly to club events in England and Europe. I have receipts for more than £30, 000 spent on maintaining the car over the years and have been a member of the Giulietta Register for 20 years or more. I bought the car from Robert Gharibi, who imported the car from USA and was well known in Alfa circles for rebuilding cars to concours quality. I bought FSK946 after it won the concours at National Alfa Day in 1991. It was on the cover of Classic Cars magazine in July 1996 and starred on Blue Peter on BBC1 the following year! It is no longer a show car, having received several modifications in keeping with the spirit of the car to make it more viable in modern traffic. Among the modifications are: electronic ignition, electric fan, enhanced radiator capacity, a five-speed gearbox, inertia seat belts, screen washer, a USB connector in the glove compartment for mobile phones and satnav, a larger 105 head on the original block, larger exhaust, with dual Dellortos breathing through a Veloce-style plenum (making the car quick, yet quiet and pliable), and many others. New Michelin tyres were fitted in May. I have had three recent expert valuations of the car and believe this to be a good car at a good price. I am happy to discuss the car with potential buyers.
