1971 Alfa Romeo GTV

this wonderful Alfa is presented in Giallo Ochre (109) over Skai Intrecciato Nero (Yellow Ochre over Black Basketweave Vinyl)

Featuring the 1750 Mk1 “Flying Buttress” seats (a set of which typically sell for £3,000 – £4,000). These are in excellent condition.

This vehicle was comprehensively restored during 2019 / 2020 and was subsequently purchased by the current owner who imported it into the United Kingdom in early 2023. Following the completion of the import and registration process, it has been assigned an age-appropriate vehicle registration by the DVLA, and therefor is ULEZ, road tax and MOT exempt on account of its Historic Vehicle taxation class.

Over £7,000 of work has been completed as a part of the preparation and preventative maintenance on this Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV. This includes a model specific (1750 GTV Mk2) Alfaholics Fast Road Suspension Kit which has been professionally installed by marque specialist Bell Sport & Classic in Hertfordshire.

The car had a full alignment completed at this stage too. Also included in their job list is a brake caliper rebuild, new brake pads all round, new brake master cylinder (and renewed unions etc), and of course fresh brake fluid. A new thermostat, temperature sensor and coolant service, as well as differential oil have also been renewed. Tuning of carburettors was also completed.

Bell Sport also installed a complete set of 4 new correct Carello headlights including new bowls and seals, attended to various electrical niggles around the car (sticking fuel sender, reverse lights inoperative) all of which is now remedied. The car has also recently fitted with a set of new Pirelli P3000 tyres.

The interior has seen the addition of a full replacement set of wood veneer inlays and chrome surrounds and gaiters. A new set of correct static seatbelts supplied by Quickfit Safety Belt Service with silver contrast webbing and chrome buckles, and the entire interior is now presenting beautifully.

The car starts well from warm or cold and is a joy to drive on the fresh tyres and new and improved suspension set up. The Alfa Romeo 1750 Nord engine sounds excellent and pulls strongly through all gears, with no synchro-crunching to report.
