I just finalize a deal for a real barn find in a farm in NJ and will pick it up next week with my trailer from Boston Ma. It is a 59 Guilietta veloce spider built in 1958 number matching everything is there except the carbs. The car is a 1959 build late 1958,VIN # is AR1495*04644* Engine # is 1315-31682. The odometer shows 42,900 miles. The color is Gray with red interior. Car was last registered in NY State, 1968, The last registration sticker is still on the windscreen. I found the car in a barn in N.J it has been there since 1970. It does need restoring but otherwise is complete. Body numbers AR 1495.04644 and engine numbers AR 1315.31682 correspond to a Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce color Graphite gray (AR 716), build 17 septembre 1958 and sold 17 octobre 1958 to Hoffman Motor Car Co. di New York, U.S.A. The car is mostly completed except for the carbs,grille,half of the front bumper, and maybe a few odds and end.
