1970 Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV - LHD £ 69,950

This 1750 GTV was supplied new to an owner in the Charente district of France in April 1970 – we know from Alfa Romeo factory records that it was originally Hawthorn White with a Black Skai interior. The car remained with owners in this area of France, although we know that it had become unroadworthy by 1994.

In 2014, it was acquired by its current owner – a Jersey resident motoring enthusiast – who commissioned a full, bespoke, restoration with a London-based marque specialist, which included the fitment of a period-correct replacement engine; full repaint in its current metallic blue colour scheme and re-upholstery throughout in tan leather. The restoration was completed in 2016 and the GTV re-registered in Jersey in November of that year (with 45,800 kms recorded). Having been kept in excellent condition subsequently, with regular servicing through ourselves and only lightly used, the car now shows 57,900 kms.

A number of mechanical and performance improvements have been made to the Alfa which include - fitment of a limited slip differential; sports exhaust; electronic ignition; Alfaholics aluminium fuel tank; Alfaholics fast road suspension setup; uprated front brakes and EZ electric power steering. The car runs and drives very well.

Structurally the Alfa is very sound with the striking metallic blue finish remaining in very good condition. The GTA style wheels and exterior brightwork are also in excellent condition. A very smart looking car.

The full interior re-trim has been very well executed with the tan leather seats and doorcards in fine condition. The dashboard is complete and very smart with the addition of a Nardi wood-rimmed steering wheel. A period Becker radio unit updated with modern electronics has been fitted.

This is a particularly attractive and smart example of a very desirable and usable Alfa Romeo coupe in in excellent condition throughout and running very well.
