much more valuable in the US - experienced shipper

The Alfa Romeo Montreal was introduced as a concept car in 1967 at the Expo 67. held in Montreal. Canada.  The first production car was shown at the 1970 Geneva Motorshow using a 2593 cc dry sump lubricated V8 engine with Spica fuel injection that produced around 235 bhp. coupled to a five-speed ZF manual gearbox and a limited slip differential. This engine was derived from the 2-litre V8 used in the 33 Stradale and in theTipo 33 sports prototype racer. The chassis and running gear of the production Montreal were taken from the Giulia GTV coupé and had double wishbone suspension with coil springs and dampers at the front.

Up for sale is a very rare. well preserved Montreal. which was converted to a Targa by its last owner. who was an engineer. The work on this one of a kind Montreal has been done professionally. with reinforcements in the interior (under console and above rockers). The underbody is untouched in good original condition. (which is unusual for these mainly in Europe and Canada sold cars). Therefor the reinforcements are relatively easy removable. if you wanted to put the car back in its original condition. This car comes out of an estate. We have documentation & history from the previous owner. such as design sketches. photos and invoices. The original alloy wheels and air cleaner are not installed. but come with the car.

Interior: seats are upholstered in black leather and look almost like new.  One missing switch in the dashboard. which was also covered with leather. Door panels due to work on the e-windows removed but will be installed before a new owner gets the car. Generally the interior is in very good condition.

Paint: excellent except for a few small marks and scratches. I would give it a strong 8 out of 10. Original color was metallic brown and the Alfa was sanded down to bare metal before the green respray.

Body: near perfect condition. seemingly without any former accidents and no rust repairs. A small tiny rust spot in front of the rear wheel. otherwise no rust. Correct gaps. no. or minimal dents. The Targa roof can be stowed in the trunk. The underbody is very good. original and rustfree.

Mechanical: it all seems to work fine apart from windscreen wipers. The electric windows are a bit slow. The engine runs good. transmission shifts well.   The car hasn't been driven for some time. so the brakes could be overhauled. But don´t get me wrong. generally the mechanics are in very good condition. This Alfa drives very nice.

Other: Chrome and stainless steel bumpers are good. could be partially polished. The tires have a lot of profile. 90% of the rubber seals are excellent.  

Legal: who bids agrees to the following: Our regular sales and withdrawal conditions for our new items are excluded for this article. since it is a used. 37-year-old vehicle. in which defects may be present.

We reserve the right to end the auction anytime.  since the vehicle might be offered in other media.  Deposit US$ 600 with PayPal for foreign buyers within 48 hours. balance: bank wire or cash.

We have good feedback as a classic car dealer and Mustang shop in Germany. See  http://www. classicdriver. com/en/article/cars/carmania-hamburgs-mustang-specialist  or  www. carmania. de

Conclusion: the previous owner was certainly an enthusiast who has realized his dream of a Montreal on an excellent base vehicle to start with. Looking at the near perfect body and underbody. the 63. 03 km (39. oo miles) might even be original. This is a true Italian sports car with a nice revving 2. 5 L V8 engine. inherited from an Alfa race car. The rarest and fastest Alfa Romeo production car of the 70`s. More worth and greater investment than the Giulias and GTV´s. In March Gooding & Co sold a Montreal for USD 176K  !! It gets harder to find a Monti in good condition for the price I am asking.  For more detailed information please call +49-40-6424272 or cell +49-172-411 1891.

Good luck bidding
