This Classic Alfa Romeo Spider and sexy sports car is a blast to drive with its 2.0L Dual Overhead Cam engine and 5-speed manual transmission. I know you will enjoy it as much as I have! She has been upgraded with Carello headlight covers, Robbins black cloth convertible top with boot cover, roll bar, AM/FM stereo with front and rear speakers, Panasport FS 14x6 wheels, Pirelli P600 195/65 tires with excellent tread life remaining, 5/8” rear sway bar, Koni shocks, HP front and rear suspension springs, chassis stiffener to improve frame rigidness, reduce cowl shake and improve handling, polyurethane bushings, adjustable upper control arms, dual Weber carburetors, headers, Anza free-flow twin-tip exhaust and an engine cooler. 2.0L Engine is from a later, fuel-injected, model replaced last summer. Fuel injection was replaced with the Weber dual-carburetors from the original motor. I am not a mechanic but would have a knowledgeable mechanic power tune the carburetors; they need to be adjusted better for smoother operation. (*I still have the original, running motor, was knocking when I parked it, not sure of the problem but had lost power the last 5 miles before I parked and replaced it.) Primarily maintained in a carport under a cover the last 6 years and a garage before that. The interior is in very good shape with no rips or tears of the burgundy seats and door panels. The dash is cracked but does have a solid dash cover. The exterior has minor blemishes and does need some minimal paint work on the front nose. I have had a lot of fun driving this sporty convertible and will miss it. I am selling her due to some health issues and pending rehabilitation. Some extra parts are also included. Recent parts and service as of Summer 2010 with engine replacement include, but are not limited to: New oil filter, antifreeze, Castrol GTX20/50 oil, water pump, upper and lower radiator hoses, bypass hose, throw out bearing, Weber 40/45 carburetor kit, manifold gaskets, oil cooler hose, shift boot, thermostat, fuel filter, ignition point set, throttle cable, spark plugs, Interstate battery and cable, valve cover gasket, fuel tank removal and clean, heater hose, water pump, radiator clean and rod out, and repair side mounting straps.
