--White with Black interior, black folding soft top, black top
boot, 1.6 Liter 4-cylinder engine, 5 speed gearbox. Late
in 1962, Alfa Romeo debuted the Giulietta's ostensible replacement
- the Giulia. The power unit was the 1.6-liter, 109bhp version of
Alfa Romeo's classic double-overhead-camshaft four as installed in
the Giulia Sprint GTV. Performance fully matched the Duetto's
stunning looks, with 60mph reachable in around 11 seconds and a top
speed of 116mph. A new Spider was launched in 1966.
Designed by Pininfarina and penned by the founder himself, Battista
"Pinin" Farina, it featured a rounded tail and emulated the famous
1952-53 "Disco Volante" race cars. At launch it had no specific
name, but a company contest soon selected the name "Duetto."
Pininfarina also manufactured the monocoque body, which was powered
by the 1570 Giulia engine. The model gained its greatest fame by
being cast in the 1967 Dustin Hoffman film The Graduate. So
faithful was its following that Alfa appended this name to the
Series II North American version. As per Alfa Romeo
Storica official this Classic Alfa Romeo Duetto was manufactured on
10th April 1967 and sold new to Newark, NJ with original colors of
White body and Black skai interior. Documented ownership in
California, Washington State and most recently, for the past 12
years, this Duetto has been enjoyed by its enthusiast Alfa owner in
New England. This Spider presents nicely throughout and
has been well maintained for repeated enjoyment, a nice example of
a good driver quality Spider regularly exercised by its
owner. This Alfa Duetto comes with an Alfa Romeo
instruction book, large history/receipt file, tool kit, jack and
spare wheel/tire. As the Alfa brand revitalizes itself in the U.S.,
here is well documented example of the car that helped create its
following.
