Alfa Romeo Milano Verde (1988)
for sale
Price: US $200.00
Price: US $200.00
I purchased this Verde about a year ago from Florida. While it has a 180K on the odometer but the engine was rebuilt only 21k miles ago (by RML in Daytona Beach, Florida). That was done 7 years ago. I have all service records since I purchased the vehicle (all work performed by DiFatta Brothers).
The highlights:
- Excellent cosmetically both in and out (no rips in seats, headliner hangs properly) - Very Cold A/C
- Sunroof works
- Newish Bilstein shocks
- Brand new tires
- Brand New timing belt
- Awesome, very responsive clutch
- Garaged as far back as I know
- Handles and runs great
- Absolute blast to drive
- Engine (and entire car) very clean
- All work since purchase at DiFatta Brothers in Baltimore - over $5k in last year, which includes:
New timing beltNew water pumpNew battery (prior owner had put new but incorrect one so it was dying after short times)Clean and adjust window regulatorSunroof parts (guides, lifts, tracks, springs)Coil and coil moduleMult relayReplacement of upper and lower ball jointsReplacement of outer tie rod endsOuter Back BootNew Door Lock electric motorReplacement of passengers window mechFour new tiresRecent oil and filter changeThe less good:
- No service records from before I purchased last year (although Ric Loveccio at RML vouched for the engine rebuild and partial restoration)
- No catalytic converter (it passes VA inspection and emissions but different states have different rules)
- Trip clock not functioning (odometer does function though) and gas gauge has tolerance band (though generally functions)
- The blower motor, though now functional, may be living on borrowed time (based on sound)
- Small rust hole in far left side of spare tire well in trunk, and small, barely visible amount of latent rust above right wheel well - otherwise rust free
While it is not a garage queen, it's not far off. I have spent over $5k optimizing this car since purchase this time last year. I wish I could keep it but I have room for only two cars so this beautiful Verde a needs a good home.
