Lot 114
1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider
Registration no.
Chassis no. 1495 11358
Imported from the USA into the Netherlands in 1992
Restored in the later 1990s
Checked by the vendor's mechanic in readiness for sale
Expert's report from 2022 available
Offered with old US title and EU customs documents
Imported from the USA to the Netherlands in 1992 by the vendor, a lifelong Alfa Romeo enthusiast, this beautiful Giulietta Spider resided prior to that in Clovis, California where its last custodian had owned the car from 1978. A restoration has been undertaken and much expenditure lavished on the car since its importation, and although most of the work pre-dates the year 2000, it still presents beautifully inside and out having been kept in a heated garage together with the rest of the owner's collection. In readiness for sale the car was sent to the vendor's mechanic for a thorough check. It has been noted that the new convertible roof needs some adjusting. Finished in the most classic colour combination of red with a black interior and hood, the Giulietta is offered with an old US title; various documents relating to its importation into the Netherlands (and therefore the EU); and a Dutch expert's report from 2022 attesting to its excellent restoration and generally very good condition.
All lots are sold 'as is/ where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding. Visit the Bonhams|Cars website for all pertinent auction information.
