1971 Alfa Romeo 1750 Spider Veloce Is An Attractive Italian Roadster

Alfa Romeo’s Spider is one of the brand’s better-known models, with four different generations produced from 1966 to 1993. Each of them is a front-engine, rear-drive roadster with distinctively Alfa exterior design language, and this 1971 Alfa Romeo 1750 Spider Veloce is an attractive example of the 2^nd-generation Spider.

The Barn Miami, a Miami, Florida-located online auto boutique, offers this Alfa Romeo for sale. One owner took care of this Spider for 42 years, and there is service history dating back to the 1970s.

The outside of this vehicle is in fantastic shape, with the exterior recently receiving a paintjob, and no rust issues present at all. The respray looks excellent, with the red paint shining very luminously. Last but not least, the top is in fantastic shape, with no damage of any kind visible.

It is easy to imagine that this uncomplicated cabin will be enjoyable to spend time in: while the cockpit of this convertible is simple, it is definitely classy. Most of the interior is black, which helps make the woodgrain steering wheel and shift knob stand out. The black vinyl upholstered seats are free of rips and tears, and the dashboard material is also uncracked.

Under the hood, you’ll find a 1750cc variation of Alfa Romeo’s twin-cam inline 4-cylinder engine. After 1971, Alfa stopped using this engine, making this an extremely desirable 2^nd-generation model. Additionally, this engine features a dual carburetor setup, but the seller provides the original fuel injection system with the vehicle’s sale. The 4-cylinder engine pairs to a 5-speed manual transmission to drive the rear wheels, and the drivetrain has covered 73,306 miles during the roadster’s nearly 50 year lifetime.

The Barn Miami is asking $19,900 for this 1750 Spider Veloce. Would you consider this desirable Alfa, or would you rather cruise in another generation of the Spider?
