Alfa Romeo Giulietta Inline 4 1957
General description :
1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Roadster
MotoeXotica is pleased to announce our latest addition, a charming 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Roadster. Unveiled in 1954 Turin Motor Show the Giulietta Juliet was one of Alfas most successful family cars. Multiple versions were offered during its 11 year production, such as the Berlina salon, Sprint coupe, and Spider roadster. The Spider roadster was styled by legendary design house Pininfarina, which makes the Spider model one of the most desirable Giulietta.
This Giulietta has been set-up for performance driving, perfect for hill-climbs and track events. Painted in bright yellow with silver accents,no one will overlook this little Alfa Spider on the road or track. Since this car has been used for performance events the hood, trunk lid, and fender flares have been replaced with lighter fiberglass mounted using rivets. Overall the paint is in very good condition with only minor imperfections. The car is street legal in its current trim and sure to be a hit at on show or event.

The previous owner did an excellent job preparing this Giulietta Spider for performance driving, tastefully upgrading the weak points with higher performing parts. Modern sports cars do not have the razor sharp directness and agility this little Alfa has; the manual steering gives the driver perfect feedback. With the addition of the performance suspension and brakes this Alfa performs like a larger go-kart. This Alfa Romeo would make the perfect entry level sports car for backroad driving or sanctioned performance driving events. With the prices of these early Alfas on a constant upward spiral this is the perfect car to drive as it sits and restore over the years to come. It is a solid investment that is worthy of a full restoration with a handsome return.

About Alfa Romeo
Alfa Romeo was initially founded in 1907 in Naples to prepare a French origin Darracq-cars for sale in Italy.The company did not fare particularly well, so the Italians investors took over the company, which was given the new name of the ALFA (Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili) . Nicola Romeo took over the company in 1918 turning it into ALFA ROMEO.
In 1933 Alfa Romeo was rescued again this time by the government, turning Alfa Romeo into an instrument of Mussolini's Italy, a national emblem that produced luxorious cars for the rich.
However, pre WWII Alfa Romeo is best remembered by its classic Grand Prix cars;
The Vittorio jano designed Alfa Romeo P2 that won the inaugural Automobile World Championship in 1925, the sensational P3 which won its first race driven by Tazio Nuvolari at the Italian Grand Prix, 5 more Grands Prix that year by Nuvolari and Rudolf Caracciola,
As well as, those racing sports cars; the 6C 1750, that Tazio Nuvolari won the Mille Miglia in, the 8C 2300 that won the Le Mans 24 Hours from 1931 to 1934, and finally 8C 2900.
Alfa Corse closed for 1933 and eventually transferred them to Enzo Ferrari's now privatised 'factory' team Scuderia Ferrari
Post war Alfa Romeo might be best remembered by the all alloy Alfa Romeo Twin Cam Hemi engine produced from 1954 to 1994 or those 60's Italian films that all seem to present that quintesential Alfa Giulietta driven by The Carabinieri.
Today any classic Alfa Romeo make a great addition to an Italian car enthusiast's portfolio.
