For Sale: 1963 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider in Saint Louis, Missouri for sale in Saint Louis, MO
Vehicle Description When it arrived on the scene in 1954, Alfa Romeo's delightful Giulietta series quickly became a best seller for the Milanese marque, and it went on to become one of the most widely beloved sporting cars of all time.
Central to the Giulietta was its twin-cam 1300 cc inline-four and brilliant chassis, each brimming with that ineffable balance and character that defined Italian cars of the period.
The versatile unibody platform was cleverly designed to accommodate various bodies and could be stretched or shortened with relative ease.
While it was intended for mass-production, each variant highlighted the work of a different coachbuilder, and many enthusiasts credit the mass-market Giulietta for igniting the renaissance of Italian coachbuilding in the late 1950s.
The factory-produced four-door Berlina was the biggest seller, which also formed the basis of a handful of estate versions built by Carrozzeria Colli.
Second to the Berlina was the elegant Bertone-built Sprint coupe, followed by the gorgeous Pininfarina-built spider.
Bertone also produced the limited-run Sprint Speciale, while Zagato was entrusted to clothe the slippery and lightweight competition versions.
Effortlessly pretty without relying on heavy jewelry or exaggerated lines, Pininfarina's superb Giulietta Spider was practically an instant icon and a symbol of carefree Italian motoring in the era of La Dolce Vita.
