As Italy's direct response to the Porsche 911, this 1963 "first-year" Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT is one of the purest examples of a classic Italian sports car. The car we have here, in a rare and attractive color combination of red over blue, benefitted from a full restoration in 2010. Since then, it has lived in the significant collections of just two owners, both of whom maintained this car with an open-checkbook. We have zero hesitation is proclaiming that this is one of the finest turnkey examples available on the market today. The Giulia Sprint 1600 GT is powered by Alfa Romeo's famed 1.6L 4-cylinder engine, one the most impressive engines of its period. It featured Weber carburetors, high compression ratios, aluminum cylinder heads, and a twin-cam design, a rarity for the era. This resulted in a high revving, 106hp power plant which, combined with the Sprints light weight, made for a thoroughly engaging and enjoyable drive which still brings grins to anyone behind the wheel more than six decades later.
Our 1963 Alfa Romero Giulia Sprint 1600GT presents an opportunity to own and enjoy an icon of 1960's Italian motoring at an attractive price point and is completely ready to be shown, driven, or raced by its fortunate next owner.
