Overview of 1968 Alfa Romeo Spider 1600 Duetto For Sale by Owner

If an Italian sports car with a rich history is what you desire, Alfa Romeo, which has been building sports cars and luxury cars for over a century, is one of the better options. Though they began with luxury coaches, they eventually opted to enter the racing scene, fighting with Ferrari and Maserati on the racetrack. They used the knowledge gained on track to build cars that conveyed emotional driving experiences to the driver. Back in 1966, the Alfa Romeo Spider was introduced, and it went on to be produced for another 33 years. This stunning example is a 1968 Alfa Romeo Spider 1600 Duetto with 110,000 miles on the odometer. With a bag full of memories, this Alfa awaits in California for its next owner.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior of this 1968 Alfa Romeo Spider 1600 Duetto is iconic Italian artistry thanks to Pininfarina's design. Its sleek yet curved body lines inspire emotions that only a true sports car can without even starting the engine. Finished in red, this example has been repainted roughly 16 years ago. The soft top was replaced a few years ago, and the windshield wiper mount and motor were repaired as well. Behind the 14-inch alloy wheels are freshly rebuilt brakes with new pads, calipers, and axle bearings. Included in the sale are extra side skirts and a slightly damaged front spoiler. As you jump over the door into a black aftermarket seat, you are greeted with a setup solely focused on driving. If you prefer the original seats, they are also included in the sale and can be swapped in. The only amenity you get is a CD radio so you can enjoy some music as you go for a spirited drive through the countryside.

Engine

This 1968 Alfa Romeo Spider 1600 Duetto is powered by a 1,600cc dual overhead cam engine with two Weber two-barrel side draft carbs. 108 horsepower is a respectable level of power for a car this size. The differential remains unaltered; however, the engine was rebuilt by its owner. Pistons, rod bearings, main bearings, sending bearings, motor mounts, and transmission mounts are among the new components.
