The glamorous Alfa Romeo Duetto, which starred in "The Graduate" alongside Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft, was very much an automotive star of the 1960s, yet has proved a long-lived classic. It was the last design personally executed by the famous Battista PininFarina and its name was the result of a competition run by the manufacturer at the time of its launch in 1966. Styling cues include the so-called 'cuttlefish-bone' profile with a rounded nose and tail, and the Alfa Romeo shield dividing the front bumper. Produced for only one year, the Duetto was closely related to the Giulia range. Powered by a twin-cam four cylinder of 1570cc it offered good performance and an attractive 'Spyder' body.


This really is a superb example of an early Spider Duetto that drives effortlessly, oozes style and would be a pleasure to own.

CONDITION REPORT:

Original. 20 year old restoration. Overall in acceptable condition as a driver's car. The paint is tired and shows cracks, imperfections and patina. Brightwork is in need of re-chrome. The upgraded alloy wheels are made of magnesium and showing the usual signs of deterioration. The Interior was also restored a while ago, many vinyl covering was upgraded to leather, which is a nice touch. Soft canvas was replaced sometime ago, works fine but mechanism has rust. There are signs of wear and tear everywhere but they are not unsightly and can be considered "period correct" patina. Mechanically sorted, just MOT'ed and have almost one year of road tax.
