1974 Alfa Romeo GTV Turbo , Almost flawless

1974 GTV The car has been my wife's car for over 20 years. The car drives better than new. It idles perfect in traffic and is very fast with no fussiness. Perfect shifting transmission. The car receives a lot of attention in public - we're constantly answering questions about it in parking lots! Thousands of hours have been spent over the years to make this a very special car for my wife. Recently however (over the past year). the car has been sitting in the garage as my wife prefers to drive our Land Rover - it sits higher and she is able to see better. So the decision has been made to part with it. Complete body stripped to bare metal 8 years ago - all rust repaired and painted. All undercoating is original - look at the pictures of the wheel wells and you'll see original paint and undercoating. Always a California car. Complete front suspension rebuilt 12 years ago - sport front springs. sport sway bar and Koni Shocks. The engine is a 1750 Milano EVO factory turbocharged engine that I imported from England. It was rebuilt 7 years ago with forged CP pistons. with 7. 5 compression. ceramic coating on the head. valves and pistons. complete balance and blueprinting. programmable fuel injection and crankfire ignition. wideband 02 sensor system . custom brass radiator and silicone hoses. Transmission completely rebuilt 4 years ago - syncros. bearings. seals. Custom Kevlar clutch replaced 4 years ago and all new clutch hydraulics. Driveshaft rebuilt and balanced 4 years ago. All rear suspension bushings replaced 12 years ago. Complete brake system rebuilt 6 years ago - calipers rebuilt and cad plated . steel braided brake hoses installed. new rotors. Porterfield R4S pads. complete new high pressure hydraulic brake booster system installed (similar to what is used on the 993 Porsche). giving it an unbelievable brake feel. Best stopping GTV ever. The car has been completely rewired with an ISIS canbuss system - just like a new BMW no high current goes thru the switches just a ground signal so headlights. fan switches. etc. never get overloaded and wear out. And. the system saved 30 lbs in wire weight. Also. it is self diagnosing and the outputs can be programed for just about any action. Another feature is that the battery will shut down automatically prior to it getting too low to start the car. Check it out at ISIS INTELLEGENT MULTIPLEX SYSTEM on the internet. High output alternator. Maserati air horns. AC /heater system completely rebuilt/upgraded 4 years ago - new heater core. new hi efficiency condenser with 2 electric fans and new Sandon compressor with all new/custom mounts. pulleys. hoses. dryer. converted to 134 Freon. New custom stainless exhaust system. New legal HID headlight system made by Sylvania (no China parts). Osram ballast and High / Low beam. New windshield and front / rear rubber. Power door locks. Ferrari 348 leather seats in near perfect condition. Ferrari steering wheel. Leather covered dash and console with carbon fiber inserts. All gauges. switches. warning lights and controls are in working condition with the exception of the heated rear window defroster (the wiring in the rear window is bad). Stereo is a Kenwood with iPod connection. 2 door speakers. 2 tweeters in the dash vents and 2 parcel shelf speakers. Bluetooth connects your cellular phone to the stereo system. Auto-electric antenna. Power port for charging your phone. New carpet and headliner. In lieu of the rear seat there is a custom carpeted covered compartment that houses the battery. The carpet covered compartment is a great place for the dog or stuff you don't want in the trunk. New coated fuel tank. high volume fuel pump. gas gauge sender unit. Trunk and engine bay paint is as nice as the outside of the car. We drove the car to Las Vegas last spring and got 29 MPG at an average speed of 80+ MPH! Buyer to arrange pick-up and delivery.
