Description:

Winning bidder was unable to complete auction. Car is up for sale with a Buy it now which is $450 less than what the auction ended at and was my reserve.
This auction is for a 1986 Alfa Romeo Spider Quadrifoglio. I purchased this car because I always wanted a Quad and I was able to purchase with a newer interior for a good price. The car badly needed a paint job and some body work so I sent her off to a body shop I have used in the past. In the 3 months that the shop has had the Alfa preparing the body and painting it with a beautiful 2-stage red paint I happened upon my dream car; a 1974 BMW 2002 TII. It needs restoration and now that the Quad is beautiful again, I feel good letting her go to someone for a very fair price. My reserve is very low and this is a good opportunity to own an Alfa Romeo Quad for a very good price. The car has not been driven in quite some time and does need to be driven to get back to good running condition.
Here is the good-New 2-stage paintSeats were reupholstered; door panels are in nice condition and so is carpet.Dash only has 2 very minor cracks; very unusual as most of these cars either have many cracks or a dash coverCar runs; I just spent $1000 for a tune up, new fuel pump, new crankcase sensor, new rear shocks, new windshield wipers and to have the car gone through .Power windows work; slow like always, but work. Passenger side just started not going down all the way; just needs adjustmentHas A/C; compressor turns on but no cold airRust free, I could not find any rust and this is a California car so it doesn't surprise meComes with Original Alfa Quad Keys; very rare.Has spare phone dial wheelsChrome is good on car and comes with extra trim pieces
Here is what you should know-I purchased with a California Salvage title or Rebuilt. Car had already been repaired a while ago from a previous owner. Appears like it was repaired professionally.Phone dial wheels are showing signs of ageTop is in good shape; there are a few small holes that were patched and rear window is in nice conditionDoes not come with hardtopTires are Pirelli but they might be a little old as the car had been sitting for a little while when I purchased.Bumpers have some nicks in them; mostly rear and if they are aluminum they need to be polished up a littleDoes not have stereo but does have front and rear speakers installedPlastic trim piece that holds gas and trunk latch is brokenNo sun visors
Car will come with a box of parts that include a variety of spare parts. Car is on a Non-Operational Certificate in California and I only have a duplicate title as the previous owner lost the title. I have all the correct forms from California DMV filled out for proper transfer. If car is sold in California, price does not include providing a California Smog certificate.
Car is sold AS-IS, Where IS. This is a nearly a 30 year old car and while it has a new paint job and interior it is still a 30 year old original condition car with 127, 000 miles. I have done my best to describe the car and brought in to a shop that works on Alfas to look at. Since it is not registered they were NOT able to perform a complete road test. They did say the car needs to be driven (like any Italian car) and go through a complete tank of 91 octane gas. I will do my best to be available for the car transport you arrange. The car will not be released until full payment is made.
