Description
This is my 1969 Alfa Romeo GTV. It is the only Sovren legal GTV racing with a full interior and a 10 disc CD changer (hidden faceplate). Imagine listening to the Stones and passing a Datsun 510 at the same time! I built the car to drive to the track, race, and drive home. It has a full length period correct fabric sunroof. It is currently set up for racing but all street equipment is included and in excellent order (bumpers, visors, rearview mirror, lights, original swaybar) the car has minilites and steel wheels. The engine is a mild race prepped 1750, but it is out of the car right now. I can prepare the engine back to its last specification for the price listed, or I have a street motor (2000 cc) if desired for less money. But that is not vintage legal. It has red international springs, big sway bar, koni shocks, hard bushings, nickel plated headers, early radius arms, limited slip differential, etc. It runs the original 1969 spica which has been wired and ziptied with all the correct mounts (so it won't break the fuel lines) The dash is perfect. The gauges work, but are inaccurate, except the tach -- which is removable. The seats are nice "flying buttress" seats, with cloth inserts. I have a nice rear seat, but its out for racing. Headliner is redone as are the panels, etc. Its a great car. I want to go to the next level, so something has to go.
