SUMMARY
Regarded as Giorgetto Giugiaro's finest commercial design, the 105-Series Coupés were amongst the best looking Alfas ever, and the GT 1600 Junior is the rarest of the series.
DESCRIPTION
- The new Coupé utilised the 105-Series Giulia TI saloon's 5-speed manual gearbox, independent front suspension, coil-sprung live rear axle and all round disc brakes
- When new, it was powered by a quick-revving twin-cam four-cylinder producing 110bhp and offering 115mph
- This UK-supplied, right-hand drive car (105.22) has been owned by our private collector for an incredible 45 years with just one previous lady owner from 1972 until 1979
- Originally fitted with the 1.6 twin-cam but, as many were, later converted to the 132bhp 2-litre power unit
- Fitted with Recaro front seats but the originals will be supplied with the car
- Good history file including old MOTs and invoices for works completed
- Running and driving well, this two-owner, mainly original car is sure to generate good interest
