Description of 1973 Alfa Romeo Spider

Series 2 Alfa Spider with desirable performance and appearance of stainless steel bumpers. These car are considered as collectable with values appreciating. Runs and drives well. Engine is very strong with Euro cam (10548) installed on intake. Maintained and serviced by long time Alfisti (has owned Alfas since 1978). Need to drop from 3 Alfas to 2! SPICA fuel injection properly maintained with regular oil filter changes. Marvel Mystery Oil added to fuel with each fill up as recommended by Wes Ingram. Recent gas mileage, mostly highway, was 24-25 mpg. Body and paint are in good condition for a driver. Top new in 2005 and in very good condition. Interior generally in good condition with new dash cap. However seat upholstery needs to be redone and door panels are fair. BWA Sport Star Wheels in need of refinishing with some curb damage on left rear. Tires have tread but are dry rotting and will need to be replaced. General restoration was done in 2005 with 75K miles on odometer (not clear if this is original mileage) to yield a reliable driver, not a show car. Restoration included: - Rust repairs with all new metal in rocker and quarter panels, local rust repairs in floor pans and other areas. - All new suspension bushings front and rear including tie rods, lower and upper control arms, rear trailing arms, sway bar links, etc. Rear T bushings were in good condition and were not replaced.
