Vehicle Description
Produced between 1963 and 1976, Alfa's lovely Giulia GTV Coupe was
one of the most widely adored versions of the popular and versatile
Giulia line. Based on a shortened Berlina platform, the coupe
featured unique styling designed by the brilliant Giorgetto
Giugiaro for Carrozzeria Bertone. The coupe shared its mechanical
makeup with the Berlina and Spider, including coil-sprung
suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and five-speed gearbox. Alfa's
iconic twin-cam inline-four was offered in various displacements
ranging from 1300 cc to 2000 cc with twin carbs or Spica mechanical
fuel injection. Equally at home cruising the interstate as it is
tearing up back roads, the GTV's combination of practicality and
performance makes it the ideal all-round classic for driving
enthusiasts. This crisp and attractive 1971 Alfa Romeo GTV is a
wonderful example of the long-running Giulia coupe line. This
US-spec GTV 1750 features the 1750 cc version of Alfa's brilliant
twin-cam engine, equipped from new with Spica mechanical fuel
injection and a 5-speed gearbox. The beautiful Bertone designed
body is in excellent order, with sharp lines and very good quality
silver paintwork. Lenses and bright exterior trim are in good
condition, with straight bumpers, alloy window surrounds, and
four-headlight grille. Correct steel wheels are fitted with
original hubcaps and Pirelli (of course!) tires and an Abarth
exhaust has been fitted to give the sporting Twin-cam Alfa just the
right sound. The four-place cabin is comfortable, airy, and a
marvelous place to spend a day of spirited motoring. The black
vinyl trim is in excellent condition having been recently restored
with new upholstery throughout. The dash features original Jaeger
gauges, a period Blaupunkt AM/FM radio, correct original steering
wheel, and lovely wood dash inserts. The console houses the classic
angled-shifter for the 5-speed 'box, which is topped with a
factory-correct shift knob. The engine is eager and revs freely,
and paired with a gearbox that is positive and smooth in its
operation, the car exudes confidence during spirited driving. With
punchy performance, balanced handling, excellent brakes, and
sophisticated styling by the masters at Carrozzeria Bertone there's
no wonder the Alfa GTV is one of the most beloved driver's cars of
the era, and this exceptionally well-sorted example is perfect for
carving up your favorite ribbons of tarmac. Offers welcome and
