Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA poster from Italy.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A premium automotive technical poster dedicated to the 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA — the lightweight, competition-focused evolution of the Giulia Sprint GT and one of the most celebrated sporting Alfa Romeos of the 1960s.
This artwork presents the Giulia Sprint GTA in a clean factory technical-document style, combining precise front, side, rear and overhead views with dimensional references, mechanical specifications and a detailed representation of the engine installation.
Gran Turismo Alleggerita
The GTA designation stands for “Gran Turismo Alleggerita,” reflecting Alfa Romeo’s extensive effort to reduce the weight of the standard Giulia Sprint GT.
Developed together with Autodelta for competition, the Sprint GTA used lightweight body panels and numerous weight-saving components. The result was a remarkably light and responsive sports coupé that became highly successful in touring-car racing.
The 1965 Giulia Sprint GTA
Introduced in 1965, the original GTA retained the elegant proportions created for the Giulia Sprint GT while incorporating extensive mechanical and structural modifications.
Its combination of compact dimensions, low weight, high-revving twin-cam engine and rear-wheel-drive chassis created one of Alfa Romeo’s defining performance cars.
1.6-Litre Twin-Cam Engine
The GTA is powered by a 1570 cc inline four-cylinder engine featuring Alfa Romeo’s famous DOHC Twin-Cam architecture.
A special Twin Spark cylinder head and twin Weber carburetors distinguish the GTA power unit from the conventional road-going Giulia engine.
In road specification, output was approximately 77 kW / 105 PS at 6,000 rpm, with competition versions capable of substantially greater performance.
Lightweight Construction
Weight reduction was fundamental to the GTA concept.
The extensive use of lightweight materials and simplified components reduced dry weight to approximately 745 kg, giving the relatively modest 1.6-litre engine significantly less mass to move.
This exceptionally low weight became one of the defining characteristics of the GTA.
Five-Speed Manual Transmission
Power is transmitted through a five-speed manual gearbox to the rear wheels.
The combination of a lightweight body, manual transmission and naturally aspirated twin-cam engine gives the GTA the direct mechanical character associated with classic Alfa Romeo competition cars.
Technical Dimensions
Wheelbase: 2350 mm
Front track: 1310 mm
Rear track: 1270 mm
Overall length: 4080 mm
Overall width: 1580 mm
Overall height: 1315 mm
The compact dimensions emphasize the remarkably small footprint of the Giulia Sprint GTA compared with modern performance cars.
Performance
In road specification, the 1.6-litre GTA produces approximately 105 PS and is capable of a top speed of around 185 km/h.
Its performance is defined not simply by outright power, but by the combination of extremely low mass, responsive engine characteristics and a carefully developed rear-wheel-drive chassis.
Detailed Technical Composition
The artwork includes front, rear and true side elevations, a large overhead technical view, engine-bay detailing, dimensional measurements, engine specifications, transmission and weight information, performance data and a period-inspired Alfa Romeo Autodelta technical inspection stamp.
The warm ivory background, restrained black technical linework and structured typography recreate the appearance of an archival factory engineering document while keeping the distinctive proportions of the Giulia Sprint GTA as the visual focus.
