1972 ALFA ROMEO MONTREAL--Rare “Grigio Escoli” truly White in appearance with only a hint of Grey with Black cloths seats and Grey carpeting, -speed manual, 9,000 Original Kilometers (37,000 Original miles) from new, nly two owners from 1973 to 2013. VIN: 1426759Alfa Romeo contracted Bertone to design an innovative new sports car in 1967 to reveal to the world at the Expo 67 World's Fair in Montreal. Penned by Marcello Gandini, ho created the iconic Miura just one year before, he concept featured innovative side gills and retractable slotted headlight shades on a classic, lowing shape. This sleek, nnamed coupe was met with much acclaim and began to be colloquially referred to as the Alfa Romeo Montreal.Three years later, lfa debuted the Alfa Romeo Montreal as a production model at the 1970 Geneva Auto Salon. While strikingly similar stylistically to the Expo 67 concept, he production model abandoned the Giulia's four-cylinder for a high-revving quad-cam V8 based on the 2.0 liter Tipo 33 Stradale engine. This 90° dry-sump V8 redlined at 7,000 rpm and brought this stylish coupe to 60 mph from a standstill in 7.1 seconds, nd on to a top speed of nearly 140 mph. While the Montreal offers blistering performance and stunning Marcello Gandini good looks, t also features four seats and a trunk, aking it quite a practical and usable sports car.This Montreal is a superb example having limited and enthusiast-collector ownership from new.

It is a superb car to drive, ith great sound, ower and handling to match. The Alfa Montreal is great automobile for both around town and cross-country or cross-continental touring pleasure.
