are universally considered to be one of the best looking Alfas
ever. This fine example had been in a Southern California
collection for several years and was already in very nice condition
when it underwent a very thorough and thoughtful restoration. The
results are quite impressive - a very handsome car with timeless
design, well-sorted mechanicals, and excellent driving traits. The
looks of the GTV are even more charming today than they were at the
car's introduction some 40+ years ago, while the performance is
still highly engaging and extremely enthralling.This stunning coupe
is a very usable and reliable example. It fires, idles, and climbs
through the revs without hesitation, and the car handles as an Alfa
should -- tight and quick. The engine and mechanical rebuild were
professional and comprehensive. The brightwork trim retains a
highly polished finish, and the lighting equipment is fully
functional, clear, and undamaged. The charming, but hunkered down
front-engine/rear drive coupe offered seating for four adults and
spirited performance. The new monocoque platform was very
innovative for the time, and lightweight. Live rear axle, disc
brakes in all corners, dual overhead cam, and 5-speed gearbox, all
resulted in a very effective combination and an exhilarating
driving experience.Designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro while at Bertone,
the GTV was a welcome favorite from its introduction, and remaining
so through successful iterations through 1975. With its stunning
Bertone-designed body, tidy greenhouse, and low but roomy profile,
these perfectly proportioned cars received only minor exterior
changes as they evolved. The biggest change occurred in 1969 with
the elimination of the early "stepped" hood and the change of the
nomenclature to GTV. Under the hood was another story altogether.
Over the years, the engine displacement grew which altered the
GTV's character. The innovative high-revving, carbureted 1570 cc
DOHC four (1600) was succeeded by a 1779 cc four (1750) with a
SPICA mechanical fuel injection system in the GTV of 1969, and
finally the displacement increase to 1962cc (2000) via an increase
in bore in 1971.For more information on this fabulous 1973 Alfa
