Buy/Swap/Sell [Announce ONLY] / FS: 1970 1750 GTV project car
Last post by Anth73 - March 09, 2024, 03:53:21 PM
This 1970 Series 2 1750 GTV project car has been patiently waiting for its time to be returned to its former glory. However, with a stepnose restoration also underway I've decided it needs to go to a loving Alfista who can continue its restoration.

The Certificato d'Origine confirms this 1750 GTV with chassis number AR1454917 was built 4 June 1970 and shipped to Australia on 18 June 1970, originally with a biancospino exterior and skai nero interior. The Australian compliance plate is stamped 10-1970.

The car retains the correct specification 00548 engine with number AR00548*50869 and according to the Fusi production logs, this engine number is in the correct engine number range for engines fitted to 1750 GTV production in 1970, making this 1750 GTV a matching chassis / engine series car. Unfortunately Alfa Romeo did not record the specific engine number fitted to individual cars until the 2000 GTV, hence I cannot confirm if this is the original engine fitted but equally it cannot be ruled out.

Though the car requires full restoration it is 95% complete with only some readily available interior trims, mechanical parts and headlights missing. It comes with its original 1750 dash and the virtually unobtainable NOS condition upper centre console (1968 production date). It also comes with a lower centre console (the piece between the seats) that can be readily refurbished.

I sourced from Italy excellent condition front and rear bumpers, stainless steel door sill plates, rare 1750 dash trims and badge, bootlid 1750 badge and QV C-pillar badges. Also included with the car are two spare doors in very good condition, all window glass, two Weber 40DCOE carburettors, correct specification airbox, front seats with runners plus rear bench seat that provide a good basis for restoration and Carello rear lights.

I would prefer to see this go to an AROCA club member and will intially list the car here exclusively. Please contact me on 0408 408 259 with any questions, photos or viewing requests.

Asking price $24,000 ONO

Hi, I would take it to an Alfa specialist to run a dianostic test. There could be a number of causes, however, once it is scanned, the fault code reader should be able to give you a better idea.

Buy/Swap/Sell [Announce ONLY] / 1985 GTV 2000 for sale in Pert...
Last post by 85GTV2000 - March 04, 2024, 04:24:07 PM
The car was garaged sitting on blocks for a couple of years, but remains registered in Perth.

Recently went to run it and found the clutch pedal went to the floor so attempted to bleed the hydraulics without success.  Decided to remove the master and slave cylinders for reconditioning - to no avail, I can't get them out. The vehicle is mechanically sound except for the clutch issue and has some minor rust. 

I have other projects to complete so the 1985 GTV 2000 has to be sold. Open to offers, let me know what photo's you want to see.

South Australia / EyeCandy Detailing ADL - highl...

Thought I'd recommend EyeCandy detailing in Adelaide after my experience for any local Alfa people thinking of getting their cars ceramic coated or PPF wrapped. Just had the GTA detailed, ceramic coated and got the b-pillars vinyl wrapped as the stickers were missing when I bought it. I also had the side skirts PPF'd as these get hit hard with rock chips. They did excellent work at what I thought was a pretty reasonable price. I've put up some links to their work. They've done quite a few Giulia's going back through the history.

"The stealer of hearts in first year uni"

Got it before i got my licence in 1980 for $990 ! it was a 1 owner 1966 model .. touched it up a bit here & there...
it was the best car i ever had... drove it in to RMIT a few times a week during my stint there.

Mates were amazed and what it could handle, did some club days with it etc. never missed a beat. Sold it to fund the
purchase of my 74' GTV 2L ! it holds a special place in my heart to this day 40+ years later. Still have a rusty sedan sitting in the driveway
to restore one day but it won't be the same (as they say) 'as my first'!

Ah those were the days...
