Buying a 1961 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider

1961 Alfa Romeo 2000 SpiderThe 1961 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider represents the last year of production for the popular 2000 Touring Spider. First shown at the 1957 Turin Motor Show, the Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider would see approximately 3,443 examples produced throughout manufacturing. Fairly expensive for their day, the Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider offered 115hp via an enlarged version of the Alfa Romeo 1900 engine with a cast-iron block, aluminum head and two Solex sidedraft carburetors. While Alfa Romeo itself would manufacture the Berlina Sedan variant, the Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider Convertible would be designed and manufactured by the Touring (a popular Italian design house of the era) and the Sprint Coupe by the Bertone company. The Spider models would represent the majority of production, followed by the Berlina and then the Sprint. When buying a 1961 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider, it is important to have a qualified Alfa Romeo mechanic help you inspect and understand the overall condition of your potential purchase. Often times, spending a bit more up front can save you thousands of dollars in restoration costs and repairs.

1961 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider Buyers Guide

Mechanically, there are a few areas of importance to consider when buying a 1961 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider. First, while these early Alfa Romeo classics are fairly sturdy mechanically, it is important to have a good understanding of what youll be taking on. It is normal for a Spider to leak some oil, for example, yet it should not be leaking anything else like coolant or brake fluid. You should also look for signs of a leaking head gasket. One sign is if the filler neck of the radiator is filled with goop. While this may not disqualify a car for purchase, these items are directly correlated with value. Similarly, you should always check for collision damage and whether or not the body shop did a good job on the repair. In many instances, it is best to ask the seller for any documentation they have regarding ownership, restoration or maintenance, as this can give you great insight as to how the car has been treated over the years. These are just a few of the many, many Buyers Tips for the 1961 Alfa Romeo 2000 Spider that The Beverly Hills Car Club team has learned over the years.
