Description
History of the Alfa Romeo Giulia
The Alfa Romeo Giulia was first introduced to the market as a saloon in 1962. The Giulia is one of the most beautiful Alfas of all time, angular yet elegant, fast and wonderfully Italian. An icon of its time which, thanks to Bertone's masterful design tricks, offers outstanding spaciousness and clarity with an exemplary Cw value of 0. 34. A sporty notchback saloon for the whole family, with a wonderfully large boot. This vehicle was practically unrivalled in its time.
And not just because of its illustrious name. But above all because it combined the characteristics of a sports car and a family-friendly touring saloon. With an all-aluminium twin-camshaft engine, four disc brakes and a five-speed gearbox, the Giulia was unrivalled at the time. This even applied to police cars. While Inspector Wanninger, Bavaria's police inspector of the 1960s, was still travelling in a BMW Barockengel and Inspector Haferkamp drove a VW Beetle to the crime scene, Italy's carabinieri were chasing crooks in blue and white Alfa Romeo Giulias. Equipped with flashing blue lights, they not only pursued bad guys, but also chased through the dreams of honest Romeos on both sides of the Alps. What made the Giulia so attractive back then still counts today: light car, powerful engine - the recipe for success for all everyday sports cars. In contrast to its emerging sporty competitors, the Alfa clearly stands out with its family-friendly four doors.
Production of the Giulia (105/ 115) ended in 1978 after 572, 646 units.
Description of the Alfa Romeo Giulia 1. 3/ 2. 0 - SSC592 offered here
This Giulia Super 1. 3 offered here has undergone a unique restoration by the Alfa Classic Centre (ACC) in Dortmund on behalf of an Alfa collector. The basic model was a Giulia Super 1. 3 , unwelded and in its original paintwork. What followed can hardly be described in words and causes the author of these lines to gasp when looking at the associated invoices and investments.
Bodywork: Complete bodywork overhauled to concours standard. The client attached great importance to perfect edges, lines, gaps and the opening and closing of the doors and bonnets. Installation of the bumpers from the first series - newly chrome-plated, two headlights (instead of four), installation of the smaller tail lights from the first series. Almost all windows replaced (except rear window) in colour green.
Chassis: Front axle with adjustable upper wishbones (GTA), front and rear axle with Bilstein dampers and Eibach springs in ACC set-up, rear axle differential 10/ 41 (2. 0L) locked with reinforced half shafts (Montreal design). Rear axle suspension and guide with reinforced bushes. Front brakes: internally ventilated discs with Brembo aluminium brake callipers - original rear brakes
Engine & gearbox: Rebuild and modification of a 2. 0 litre engine. In addition to the improved performance (145 hp), the focus was on an early onset of high torque (177 NM at 2800 rpm). Customised exhaust system with fan manifold and larger pipe diameter of the remaining system. Gearbox rebuild with renewal of all bearings and synchroniser rings.
Interior: Complete, modern rebuild of the soundproofing and insulation of the entire passenger compartment and boot, leather upholstery, new upholstery cores, new headlining, carpet (black) in loop fabric. Carpet lining in the boot.
Further on: All instruments were overhauled and refurbished. Speedometer ratio was adapted to the 2. 0 litre axle. Oil temperature display retrofitted in a matching look, for this purpose the original console (for two instruments) was replaced by a customised version for 3 instruments. Original Blaupunkt radio completely overhauled, with discreet windscreen aerial and JBL loudspeakers in the dashboard. Additional hifi system in the rear, invisible from the outside (Bluetooth receiver, 2-channel power amplifier and 2 JBL speakers in the rear shelf), custom-made 7 x 15 steel rims with series 1 hubcaps - on request we can exchange this wheel set for an original 5. 5 x 14
The restoration was completed in 2023. The total investment including the purchase of the base vehicle amounts to over € 220, 000.
The condition of this Giulia is simply unique and the asking price is disproportionate to the investment made.
Note: The entire collection of this Alfa enthusiast is in a comparable condition and will also be offered by us over time. This Giulia currently has Italian registration papers.
