Vehicle Detail
During the past week we have seen two very different and extreme end of the market for these lovely vehicles. At one end, we saw the 1955 with lots of missing and incorrect parts with lots of rust and body damage. At the other end, we are seeing the very nice 1957 Sprint from Switzerland. That said, this particular Sprint is very well priced at the lower end of the price spectrum. This auction is for a rare 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint 750 1st Series Model. The vehicle is relatively complete with all the period correct trim and interior pieces. The vehicle engine serial number is 1315*04982 that is it is fitted with all correct components as depicted on photos located on AISLLC.smugmug.com Although the engine is complete and turns free, it is a non running car and will required a complete mechanical sort throughout. The most important part of this vehicle is that it is remarkable complete with a very good virtually rust free, with excellent panels, doors, hood and trunk fit nicely. Complete vehicles as this one are very hard to come by. There are no signs of major collision damage or rust repairs on the vehicle; however it has had some bondo repairs on the nose area. We replaced the driver lower seat pan section where there appeared to be to rust damage on the vehicle. Trunk looks solid as well as the undercarriage and jack point supports.
