AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

IN RISALTO
*New in Italy
*Engine rebuilt, with only about 3,000 km driven
*Unified 1.6 Spider Veloce Duetto version
*Original factory engine and colors
*Alfa Romeo origin certificate and registered ASI
*Series 115.35, produced in only 600 units

HISTORY / OVERVIEW
Presented in 1969 at the Turin Auto Show, the second series of the Duetto is characterized by the famous “tail cut,” designed to reduce aerodynamic drag and improve performance. The example offered at auction is a 1981 model belonging to the second series, in its latest configuration. From 1980, some new interior features were introduced, including a steering lock, ashtray, and several switches. The car belongs to the 1,600 cc version delivered in Italy, is also part of the 115.35 series, produced in only 600 units, and retains the original engine and colors as per the Alfa Romeo certificate.

EXTERIOR
The bodywork is finished in Black, code 817, and was professionally restored in the past. Today the paintwork is in generally good condition, with only minimal signs from normal use. A recent polishing and detailing treatment has enhanced the overall appearance of the car.
The bodywork is solid and a thickness gauge check showed no traces of accidents.
The underbody is generally solid, ready for use and compliant with the technical inspection without accident traces.

INTERIOR
The interiors are trimmed in original Alfa Romeo Vipla and are in excellent overall condition, original and with only minor signs of use and time. The dashboard instrumentation is original and complete to the rare Unified series. A full sanitization has just been performed. The hood is original and in good condition; the outer fabric shows some wear but keeps water out and is usable.

MECHANICS
The engine is original as indicated by the registration document, type 526/A-S, displacement 1,600 cc, and as an original birth certificate from the Alfa Romeo museum. The engine has been completely professionally rebuilt about 3,000 km ago, as documented by photographs and invoices available. It starts easily and runs well. The brakes work correctly and the gearbox is functional, as are the suspensions with red springs, a new exhaust, new tires and alloy wheels.
The last technical inspection has been passed and is valid until February 2027, and the car has just completed a test of over 100 km without issues.
The Alfa Romeo Spider 1.6 Coda Tronca of the 115.35 series represents an interesting example of the second series of the famous Duetto, particularly characterized by its 1,600 cc configuration, the Origin Certificate, color matching and the completely rebuilt original engine with about 3,000 km driven, contributing to make this car an interesting collectible piece.

Disclaimer

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
