1987 Alpha Romeo
Spider Veloce
This car has been
garaged its whole life and for the past 15 +/- years seen very little driving.
I just had the car
completely gone over and replaced most of the old rubber components and
anything else it needed to make it perfect. To that end, we gave it a tune up
and replaced:
·
Upper and
Lower Radiator Hoses
·
Thermostat
and Housing
·
Fan Belts
·
Set of
four brand new tires (less than 100 miles on them)
·
New
windshield (the old one was showing it’s age and had a small crack in it)
·
New wiper
blades to go with the new windshield.
·
New
convertible top ($1000 including installation) installed by professional auto
interior shop. (It is the top of the
line made from stayfast material with zip out rear window)
·
New drive
shaft carrier bearing (The old bearing was fine but the rubber that surrounds
it was shot)
·
New
driver’s side window regulator (cable on the old one was done, apparently a common problem).
After all mechanicals
were checked out I had the vehicle professionally detailed and took 100’s of
pics afterward. So if your looking for a pic of something you don’t see in the
auction do not hesitate to ask for it.
Now the car is 100%
other than the digital clock is INOP. I did not even price a new one as I don’t
really think it is necessary.
Car is completely
rust free. The interior is stunning. The original paint is not perfect but is
in extraornary condition considering it is 30 years old. There are very small
chips here and there from 30 years of driving. From 10 feet away, the paint
appears to be flawless. I just had the car professionally detailed and took 100’s
of pics of it paying particular attention to any defects. The one thing I
noticed that I never noticed prior to taking the pics is the back of the driver’s
side mirror has virtually no paint left on it (see photo). Not a big deal and
as I said before it is so nice I had never noticed it. In any event I can have
it repainted for winning bidder if you want it done. I will not mess with it
until then as some prefer to leave the paint completely original.
Car runs and drives
like new. I would not hesitate to hop in and drive across the country. It has
very low mileage that will be slightly higher at end of sale as I am driving it
every sunny day.
Inspections are not only welcome but
encouraged. I am in the self-storage business and have stores in Montague NJ
07827, Matamoras PA 18336, Middletown NY 10940 and Port Jervis NY 12771. So if
you cant make it to my home in Hawthorne NJ 07506, I’d be more than happy to
drive it to one of these locations for your inspection (I have access to a lift
at all locations so bring your mechanic with you and have him/her go through
it. Nothing to hide.
I am selling this vehicle along with
dozens more from my collection as I have a wonderfull business opportunity and
need to raise the cash ASAP. To make sure I sell them all I am doing each
auction the same way. $1 starts the bidding and there will be no reserve on any
of them. So make sure you have the funds available, any permissions you need
from spouse parents, significant other, etc, completed any inspections and had
all questions answered prior to bidding as you are bidding to win.
Good luck and happy
bidding.
