UPDATE: BRING-A-TRAILER 4/13/2017

This 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce was recently restored and has been verified as a factory Veloce by Alfa Romeo’s Centro Documentazione. Powered by a 1570cc twin cam inline-four and 5-speed manual from a 1968 donor car, this example was imported to Greece from Switzerland in 1965, resurfaced in 1986, and had been repainted red at some point. It was sold in 1989 to a collector who campaigned it in an Italian Alfa rally and the Historic Acropolis Rally. Subsequently garaged and driven occasionally, the car was sold to the previous owner in 2014. The seller commissioned a restoration in April 2015 that included a repaint in the original color, interior refurbishment, new wiring, refresh of the fuel and cooling systems, suspension overhaul, rebuilt steering, new shocks, and upgraded brakes. He is now offering this Giulietta Sprint Veloce with a customs-cleared shipping rate of $2000 USD to East Coast ports. This Alfa is located in Athens, Greece and is sold with the original drivetrain and drum brakes, a letter of authenticity, a reprint of the factory service manual, correct Veloce tach, optional rear package shelf, and a clean Greek title.
The restoration was just finished in January 2017 and included a bare metal repaint in the original Gardenia White. The original glass was reinstalled with new seals all around, and the seller notes one chip in the windshield. Fergat disc wheels have been refinished in silver, and some light pitting can be seen on the center caps and front bumper. Tires are 185 SR15 Vredstein Sprint Classics.
The interior was removed during the repaint, and new carpet and upholstery were installed over Dynamat insulation. Original Veglia gauges were rebuilt, though the tachometer is a replacement from a later car. A correct 8,000 rpm tach is included. A new wiring loom was sourced from AFRA in Italy, and all switches were overhauled and bulbs replaced. The heater box and controls were also rebuilt, and a USB charger is hidden in the cigarette lighter. 13,571 kilometers (8,432 miles) are indicated, but true mileage is unknown.
A 1570cc twin cam inline-four from a 1968 donor car was installed by the previous owner, with the airbox and Dellorto side-draft carburetors from the original motor installed. An NOS radiator was fitted, and the fuel tank was cleaned and pressurized. The carburetors were rebuilt and a new fuel pump and water pump, installed. In preparation for the sale, the carbs were tuned and all fluids changed, with new oil and air filters installed. The included 1290cc engine requires a rebuild but is original per the Greek registration document included in the car. It is accompanied by the original 5-speed transmission and rear differential.
The car was restored on a rotisserie, and new floor pans and a trunk floor were sourced from Wolf Steel in Canada. The suspension was rebuilt with new shocks and the steering box was overhauled. Detailed pictures of the suspension and underside can be seen in the gallery. The brakes were upgraded to Lockheed servo-assisted components with Aeroquip lines, but the original set of drums are included.
Alfa Romeo archivist Marco Fazio has confirmed that the chassis number was assigned to a 1961 Giulietta Sprint Veloce originally sold in Switzerland.

UPDATE: APRIL 2023 BRING-A-TRAILER

This 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce was first delivered to Switzerland and later imported to Greece, where it was acquired by the current owner in 2014. The car was subsequently refurbished with work involving a repaint in white, an interior refresh, a four-wheel disc-brake conversion, and steering and suspension work. Power is provided by a replacement 1.6L twin-cam inline-four paired with a five-speed manual transmission. Additional equipment includes Fergat-style 15″ wheels, Veglia instrumentation, and an Imasaf exhaust system. The car was previously listed on BaT in April 2017, and service performed since is said to have included adjusting the carburetors, installing a brake booster, and replacing the flange gaskets along with the tachometer. This Giulietta Sprint Veloce is now offered in Athens, Greece, by the seller on behalf of the owner with an owner’s manual, a tool kit, Centro Documentazione Alfa Romeo correspondence, refurbishment photos, and Greek registration.

The body was finished from the factory in Gardenia White, changed to red under previous ownership, and repainted in its current shade of white as part of the aforementioned refurbishment. Further exterior details include a replacement scudetto center grille and Sprint Veloce-badging as well as Alfa Romeo-branded side mirrors, chrome bumpers, polished trim, and an aftermarket front license plate holder. Chips are visible in the windshield as well as the driver-side window. The seller states that a ceramic coating has been applied to the body.

Fergat-style 15″ wheels wear Alfa Romeo-branded hubcaps and are mounted with Vredestein Sprint Classic tires. A spare wheel with a Firestone tire is housed in the trunk compartment. Bilstein shocks are said to have been installed along with aftermarket springs. Four-wheel disc brakes along with a brake booster were installed under current ownership.

The low-back front bucket seats and rear bench were reupholstered in blue vinyl with gray cloth inserts and are accompanied by color-coordinated door and side panels. Dynamat sound deadening material was applied to the floors, and additional appointments include a heater, a dash-mounted rearview mirror, pop-out rear windows, Carrozeria Bertone-branded door sills, and Alfa Romeo-branded foot pedals. A USB charging outlet is installed below the dash, according to the seller.

The two-spoke steering wheel features a polished horn ring and a gold-finished Giulietta Sprint horn button. Veglia instrumentation consists of a 220-km/h speedometer and a combination gauge as well as a replacement tachometer with an inset oil pressure readout. The five-digit odometer shows 14k kilometers (~9k miles). The gauges are said to have been rebuilt, and total mileage is unknown.

The replacement 1.6L twin-cam inline-four is said to have been sourced from a later model Giulia and installed under previous ownership. The engine features a Giulietta airbox, a replacement radiator, and twin Dellorto side-draft carburetors. Service performed in 2022 is said to have included adjusting the carburetors, replacing the flange gaskets, and performing an oil change.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a replacement five-speed manual transmission. The driveshaft was replaced under current ownership, according to the seller. The car features an Imasaf exhaust system.

Email correspondence from Centro Documentazione Alfa Romeo indicates a build date of June 12, 1961, along with initial delivery to Switzerland and the original paint color.
