Buying a 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale

The Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale was released in 1957 as a luxurious, but exclusive, new body style within the popular Giulietta lineup. Released at the same time as the Sprint Zagato, both models added sleek, aerodynamic bodies to an already impressive lineup of Giulietta models. Highly prized today, the Sprint Speciale is known for its terrific style and curvature, while the Sprint Zagato is praised for its racing pedigree. The 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale (and other model-years) used an Alfa Romeo 1,290cc twin cam four-cylinder engine with a light alloy cylinder block and an alloy cylinder head. The Sprint Speciale and Sprint Zagato variants would also boast twin Weber carburetors to reach 100hp and a top speed of 112mph. In total, only 1,366 examples of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale would be built prior to its retirement in 1962. Today, classic car collectors and Alfa Romeo enthusiasts jump for the opportunity to own a piece of this illustrious history.

1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale Buyers Guide

When buying a 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale, it is important to verify that you are indeed looking at an original. This can be achieved in several ways, yet matching the engine and chassis numbers to official Alfa Romeo records is perhaps the best. Similarly, youll want to find the best condition and most complete example you can within your price range. Restoration of a Giulietta Sprint Speciale can often outweigh the actual value of the classic in todays market; therefore, it is imperative that you take into account the overall condition of the example and what specifically will need to be done to restore it. On the other hand, if youre looking for a model that is completely restored or in mint-condition, be sure to ask sellers for any documentation they may have to support the cars history. Ownership history, maintenance and repair, and restoration documents are the most helpful in understanding the history of the car.
