Description
History of the Alfa Romeo GT Bertone 1963 was an important year in automotive history. At the IAA in Frankfurt, a whole series of automotive icons were presented, including the Porsche 901, the first Pagode and the new Alfa coupé. The new cars had to be sober, rigorous, harmonious and functional. The Alfa Romeo Bertone Junior was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro of Bertone, and was one of the company's most timeless and beautiful creations. Under the bonnet is Alfa Romeo's famous double-cocker, which made its debut in 1953 on the Giulietta and, ten years later, was still one of the best four-cylinder engines in the world: a light-alloy block and cylinder head, two overhead camshafts and a solid duplex chain to drive the camshafts, as well as, in the case of the coupé, two twin carburettors, all combined with a sophisticated chassis and four disc brakes as standard, made the heart of any ambitious and sporty driver beat faster. The 1300 or 1600 GTA racing versions ran circles around the competition, and even Alfa's failed facelift in the early 1970s, with its smoothed-out front end, didn't dent its commercial success. On the racetrack, the Bertone GT collected cups, even after it ceased production! More than 200, 000 units left the Arese factory in Italy. Corrosion and damage due to poorly repaired accidents unfortunately took their toll on the coupes in the years that followed.
