Alfa Romeo's Alfetta name is synonymous with the post war
158/159 Grand Prix racing cars that became known as the 'invincible
Alfetta' after winning every race entered in 1952. 30 years later. br/>in 1972. Alfa Romeo re-introduced the Alfetta name with the
introduction an all new saloon (Berlina); named such as the
new car shared the transaxle and de Dion suspension design of the
earlier race cars. The front suspension was all new thinking with a
complex progressive rate set up which used torsion bars in place of
the familiar coil springs of the earlier Giulias and Giuliettas. In
1974 a GT version was offered; designed by the stylist Giorgetto
Giugiaro. the new Alfetta GT left little doubt as to the car's
ancestry. With the gearbox at the rear coupled with the de Dion
design and new front suspension. the Alfetta offered 50/50 weight
distribution over both axles giving the GT extraordinary stability
at speed. In 1976. the GT. initially offered with a capacity of
1570cc (1. 6 litre) was replaced by the 1779cc (1. 8 litre) with the
fuel filler-cap now visible as well as the Alfa Romeo badging
written above the number plate.

The example presented today represents one of the first series
with the narrow metal bumpers and an 1800cc engine developing
118hp. Both the interior and the engine compartment are original
with the engine overhauled in 2007; since then. it has only covered
approximately 7. 00km. It has also been painted externally during
which time it was reported to have no corrosion issues. Also
retained are the plates and documents of origin and in 2008. it
received the highly honoured ASI (Automotoclub Storico Italiano)
Gold Plate; confirming the car's provenance and condition. With its
twin overhead cam engine. five speed gearbox and disc brakes all
round. the Alfetta GT is a true Grand Tourer in every sense and
highly collectable today. particularly in its rarer 1. 8 litre
form.
