Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT

>> (ENG) “Few cars can match the Alfa 1600 for sheer driving pleasure, and it will amply reward the driver who gives it his undivided attention” (Car & Driver). Unveiled in 1963, the Giulia Sprint GT featured an attractive four-seat body, designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro. It was not built at Bertone, rather at the new Alfa Romeo-factory in Arese. Under the sheet-metal of the new coupé were a five-speed manual gearbox, an independent front suspension, a rigid coil-sprung rear axle (except on the very first ones) and four-wheel discs (as introduced on the 105-series Giulia TI saloon). The Sprint GT could deliver 106 bhp (compared to 92 for the TI) thanks to twin-Weber carburetors, with power to reach a top speed of 180 km/h. Modified intake ducts characterized the more powerful engine of the GTV Sprint (with V for Veloce), introduced in 1965 and boasting 109 bhp. Designed for driving pleasure, the Sprint-range was a huge success for Alfa Romeo, with a production lasting fourteen years, until 1977. _ _ _ We present you a 1966 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT, powered by the 1.6-liter 4-cylinder twin-cam. This classic only had 2 owners since new; purchased in Paris on the 15th of February 1966. The original invoice is still with the car. Four years later it was purchased by the second owner, who also kept it in Paris up until now (!) for 50 years (and we have purchased from her). Finished in the original gray color with classic yellow headlights, this vintage sportscoupé presents very well, with a body showing signs of age, giving it a nice patina. The interior is magnificent, in both beauty and condition, and finished with burgundy leather. Delivery will include the vintage user manual, original service book, invoice & delivery ticket, etc. Mechanically a “Starts & Drives” oldtimer, that could use some love to get back to full splendor. An inspirational time capsule, you are welcome to have inspect yourself, via a reserved viewing. _ _ _ _ _ Dus, dit kavel vertoont matige tot normale gebruikssporen (of tijdens de bezichtiging ‘Kijkdag’ kan je eventueel een belangrijk eigen oordeel vormen) en is verder voorzien van; de vintage Handleidingen & het originele Onderhoudsboekje, plus de oorspronkelijke aankoopfactuur & leveringsbon. _ _ _ Voor die Kijkdag moet je reserveren (want soms worden kavels verplaatst) en dat is in eerste instantie via e-mail naar info@ HaspengouwClassics.eu (Als het officiële moment echt niet past, vinden we mogelijk een ander.) _ _ _ De Afhaling is standaard te Hasselt, en om een vlot verloop ook eerst verplicht & tijdig aan te vragen ons e-mailadres (info@ HaspengouwClassics.eu).
