Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior £ 37,950

Supplied new in Bergamo, Italy as a home market, right-hand drive model and first registered in April 1969. In addition to the right-hand drive option, it was delivered with cloth and vinyl seating, unlike the full vinyl seats more commonly found. The first owner had the vehicle for just a few years, before it passed into the ownership of the Bellini family, who held onto the car for almost 50 years. For much of this time the vehicle has had very little use, being kept in storage, but it was subject to both a mechanical and bodywork ‘refresh’ in 2016.

In 2021, the Bellini family sold the Alfa to ‘Classics & Cabriolets Collection’ of Essex, who imported the car and re-registered it (with an age-related plate) in the UK. The GT 1300 was purchased by its current owner in late 2022.

Very much a driver’s car, this example runs and drives well and good use can be made of the high-revving, twin Weber-fed engine, five-speed transmission and four-wheel disc brakes. The car was last serviced in 2023 and is currently UK taxed (until the end of 2025).

The refurbishment work carried out in 2016 was clearly comprehensive – the body of the car is solid and the underside and engine bay are exceptionally clean and tidy. The original Pino Verde paintwork has been nicely refreshed and the car’s brightwork is all present and in very good condition.

The interior has also clearly been well-refurbished - the rare-finish seating appears to have been re-upholstered in original style material; the rubber floor matting and vinyl transmission tunnel cover are in very good condition, as is the roof lining. It’s a pleasure to sit inside this car.

This is a very smart example of the earlier ‘step nose’ style Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior, in a very good condition throughout. We have an Alfa Romeo archive certificate for the car, together with some Italian ownership documentation.

Although UK registered, the GT Junior is currently in Jersey with viewing by appointment.
