Vehicle Description
1962 Alfa Romeo Giulia 1600 Spider LHD
According to the Alfa Romeo Museum archives this Giulia Spider was
manufactured on September 13th 1962 and invoiced by the factory on
September 29th 1962 to The Hoffman Motor Car Company in New York,
USA.� Its original factory colours were Farina Red with a Black
interior, just as it is now.
This charming example is believed to have been imported from
Florida in 1989 and was first registered in the UK the following
year. It was carefully driven by its Surrey based owner for a few
years before being stored in 1993 pending renovation work, which
failed to materialise. The Alfa was eventually acquired by its most
recent owner in 2012 who commenced a nut-and-bolt restoration, with
the body being completed in 2016 when the car was taken to Alfa
Romeo Giulia specialists for re-assembly.� Work included rebuilding
the correct 112 series engine and 5-speed gearbox, fitting a new
interior, new seat frames and foams, new stainless-steel bumpers
and re-chromed or replaced bright-work, a new exhaust system,
overhauling the braking system with many new cylinders and shoes,
overhauling the starter motor and dynamo, a new windscreen, a new
stainless steel fuel tank, a new air box arrangement, and
overhauling the wiper linkage. Further finishing works have
recently been completed by JD Classics and the car is supplied with
a history file containing a large quantity of invoices relating to
the importation, registration, and restoration of the car. This
delightful Italian sports car is now ready to enjoy. Please contact
