1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta TI

Available for auction is this 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Berlina.

Car is quick and peppy and a blast to drive. The manual transmission keeps the sporty soul of this Alfa Romeo alive and well. The car gets a lot of attention and interest everywhere you drive it. A lot of fun to drive indeed.

This vehicle is defined by its excellent power to weight ratio, free revving engine and a surprisingly spacious interior.

The T.I. had revised engines and new exhaust systems; output rose to 73 brake horsepower. With this new engine the car could reach a speed of almost 160 km/h (99 mph).

At the front of the car square mesh side grilles were now pieced together with the center shield, and at the rear there were larger tail lights. Inside the T.I. had individual seats, instead of bench seats.

The Alfa Romeo Giulietta used unibody construction and a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout. Front suspension was by control arms, with coaxial coil springs and hydraulic dampers. At the rear there was a solid axle on coil springs and hydraulic dampers.

The axle was located by a longitudinal link on each side, and by a wishbone-shaped arm linking the top of the aluminium differential housing to the chassis. All Giuliettas (save for the last SZ examples) had hydraulic drum brakes on all four corners

The Giulietta used an Alfa Romeo Twin Cam straight-four of 1290 cc, with an aluminium alloy engine block and cast iron inserted sleeves.

The aluminium alloy cylinder head was of a crossflow design and featured hemispherical combustion chambers. The double overhead camshafts were driven by two timing chains, and acted on two valves per cylinder.

The sportier TI version offered uprated performance on a budget. It included floor shift, dual-throat carburetor, and more instruments.

Undercarriage photos are available upon request.
