Alfa Romeo Sprint GT 1964 (Typo 105.02), Biancospino

After the success of the Giulietta’s lines, the 105-Series Giulia Sprint GT was announced in 1963, and was immediately acclaimed as a suitable successor to the 101-Serie cars. The basic body shape shared by all models was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro for Bertone. It was one of his first major projects for Bertone. It was revealed at a press event held at the then newly opened Arese plant on 9 September 1963, and displayed later the same month at the Frankfurt Motor Show. In its original form the Bertone body is known as scalino (step) or "step front", because of the leading edge of the engine compartment lid which sat 1 cm (0.4 in) above the nose of the car.

We're looking at a sports car! with 50 years of hindsight, every stylistic detail of the Sprint GT is a real invitation to nostalgia. It is difficult to remain marbled facing that enchanting yet so pure design. Under the hood, we find all the strength of Alfa Romeo: its engine. Faithful to a long tradition as an engine manufacturer, Alfa Romeo has built a 1.6-litre engine that presents an astonishing modernity for the time. This in-line four-cylinder engine had alloy cylinder head and block.

In total 21,902 Giulia Sprint GT were produced from 1963 to 1965, when the model was superseded by the Giulia Sprint GT Veloce.

According to the Centro Documentazione Alfa Romeo, our car, chassis AR 615733, wich is still equipped with its original AR00502 engine block, was produced on July 21th 1965 and delivered to the French market in Paris.

We are in presence of a third hand car, totally restored in its original configuration and original Biancospino body color. 2 years nut and bolt restoration including great care to keep all the factory spot welds in the correct place, including the sills, dip rail and wheel arches. All the light unit, as well as the chrome and stainless steel finishers are original and in excellent condition. We offered a full mechanical overhaul, highly documented and pictured (Engine, gearbox, diff…).

This is a chance to own a very significant model in Alfa Romeo illustrious manufacturing history.
