Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT Veloce. model normally referred to as a “Bertone”. Back in 1963 when Alfa Romeo launched the Giulia Sprint GT as the successor for the old Giulietta/ Giulia based models, it was an improved and more powerful version of the traditional GT Coupe. And the design really made a difference. Bertone had spotted the young talent Giorgetto Giugiaro, at that time doing his compulsory military service. Nevertheless, Bertone asked him to prepare some sketches for the new GT and the result was Giulia Sprint GT.
This is the first generation Bertone with the step-nose body (Scalino in Italian), a flat version dashboard. Alfa Romeo wanted to offer a more cost friendly alternative to the expensive GTA model, basically identical except with a steel body instead of aluminum and just single plug ignition. Compared to the normal GT the Veloce featured more sporty bucket seats. From outside the model is recognized by the 3 horizontal chrome lists in the front grille and the famous green clover leaf – Quadrofoglio – on the C pillar. The Veloce version of the Sprint GT is quite rare with only very few left on the roads today.
And it drives so well! Everything works as it is supposed to do with such a delicate steering, noiseless transmission and fresh engine response. This car is aimed at the serious enthusiast or collector, looking for one of the best and rarest Alfa Romeo models they made in what was probably the prime period for the marque ever – and in a condition, which will be hard to find anywhere.
