This is a Rarely Seen Alfa Romeo Spider Gran Tourers discovered in Storage From 38 Years of California Ownership
One of Only 3,443 produced between 1958 and 1962
Offered With Exceptionally Rare Hard Top
A Very Solid & Complete Example for Straightforward Restoration
The 2000 Spider was designed for luxurious long-distance touring and received an uprated Sprint engine with 8.5:1 compression and dual carburetors. Compared to smaller Alfa Romeos of the era, enthusiasts have remarked at how solidly constructed the Touring body feels. A full 10 inches of additional wheelbase opens up the cabin experience to one that resembles that of a Ferrari 250 Cabriolet or Maserati 3500 Spyder with equally impressive couch built construction, at a fraction of the cost.
