  • New steering rack
  • Braking system rebuilt; new discs, rebuilt calipers, braided flex-lines, new master cylinder
  • Complete strip and repaint in AR501 Red. Side markers removed. Car is RUST FREE.
  • Bumpers uprated with Shankle fiberglass items. Over 100lbs. weight reduction.
  • Much more. More details for the asking.

Car comes with lots of spares, complete Euro/custom exhaust, water pump, rear wheel bearings, rubber trim and seals, poly suspension bushings, prop-shaft couplings, steel trim pieces, and others. A tub's worth of receipts are included. Located in Stockton, CA but can be seen in Bay Area.

This is an AlfettaGT lover's speedy dream. It is lowered and stiffened and not a terribly comfortable ride around town. It is very tight and fun on open roads and is quicker than a stock GTV6. There may be no others in the US in this kind of comprehensively restored and upgraded condition.

Not perfect; front seat leather needs renewing; horn buttons broken; a torn CV boot in rear, 3 paint blemishes, other small miscellaneous warts.
