The alfa romeo spider is a roadster produced by the italian manufacturer alfa romeo from 1966 to 1993 (190 spiders were badged as 1994 commemorative editions for the north american market). Widely regarded as a design classic, it remained in production for almost three decades with only minor aesthetic and mechanical changes. Based on the giulia 105 series chassis, the spider was launched in the 36th geneva motor show in 1966. Unnamed at launch, the name "duetto" was chosen in a write-in competition in italy. Coachbuilder pininfarina was responsible for the design of the body; in fact, the duetto was the last project with which founder battista "pinin" farina was personally associated. Pininfarina were also responsible for the manufacture of the vehicle's monocoque construction (designed with the relatively new principles of crumple zones incorporated into the front and rear). The engine was a 1570 cc variant of the alfa romeo twin cam 4 cylinderengine, and produced 109 hp. Sparsely fitted inside but including five speed manual transmission, disc brakes and independent front suspension, the price on launch in italy was 2,195,000 lire. In 1970 the first significant change to the exterior styling was introduced on the 1750 spider veloce, with the original's distinctive elongated round tail changed to a more conventional cut-off tail, called the "kamm tail", as well as improving the luggage space. Numerous other small changes took place both inside and out, such as a slightly different grille, new doorhandles, a more raked windscreen, top-hinged pedals and improved interior trim. 1971 saw the spider veloce get a new, larger powerplant - a 1962 cc, 132 hp unit - and consequently the name was changed from 1750 spider veloce to 2000 spider veloce. The car runs perfectly, starts right up, runs smoothly, shifts smoothly, stops well and handles like it's on rails. The a/c blows ice cold! Finished in the desirable red/black color combination, this alfa is perfect for the enthusiast looking for a turn key car he can get in and enjoy immediately. Air Conditioning✔ Leather Seats
