The Alfa Romeo Spider was produced from 1966 to 1993 and is widely regarded as a design classic. It remained in production for almost three decades with only minor aesthetic and mechanical changes. During 1970, the Giulia 105 Series Spider was updated in numerous areas. Gone was its round-tail look and, in its place, was the aerodynamically more efficient, Wunibald Kamm design. Other changes were not so easily spotted. The windscreen was more raked, leading to additional modifications. Adorning the front was a new heart-shaped grille and revised bumpers. The 1300 and 2000 cars were modified in 1974 and 1975 respectively, to include two small seats behind the front seats, becoming a 2+2. Several other detail changes were made before production changed to the Series III model in 1982.

Purchased by our vendor in 2008, as a car he would enjoy on pleasure trips in the summer countryside near his estate, and being someone with a small collection of cars, he drove the car very sparingly. Originally finished in Alfa Romeo Bianco White, the Spider had benefitted from a past refurbishment. However, the seller wanted the car brought up to his standards so had it further fettled and repainted Rosso Alfa. It's been maintained over the years by Terry J. Harris Automotive Engineers, in business over 35 years. Works carried out during restoration involved floor pan replacement, anti-rust prevention, sound-proofing, work to the engine (gaskets and seals), replacement exhaust mountings, a brake overhaul, wheel alignment, the tyres replaced, a heater motor, clutch assembly, gearbox and axle oils, plus other work, with invoices on file. According to the vendor, 'it drives well' and was running for photography and with the roof down, which was in excellent condition. It is supplied with the current V5C Registration Document and invoices and photographs of the restoration.
