This 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint spent several decades in storage during a reported 46-year period of prior ownership, and it was acquired by the seller in 2023. This Alfa was completed restored with every nut and bolt at which time the color was changed from its original blue to red. The engine is a fully rebuilt original 1.3-liter with a four-speed manual transmission. The prior owner claims the engine is original to the car and the engine SN# date code is late 1959 which is consistent with a factory engine for a 1960 model. Additional equipment includes 15 TZ-style steel wheels, drum brakes, headlight grilles, Veglia instrumentation, a wooden shift knob, a heater, and red lap belts. This Giulietta Sprint is now offered with the removed air cleaner housing, refurbishment photos, and a clean Illinois title. The five-digit odometer shows 37k miles, with only approximately 1000 miles added since its full restoration. A matching spare wheel with a Dunlop tire is stored in the trunk.

Body was completely restored down to metal with a rotisserie. All flaws were repaired with metal repairs only, however, the car retains all its original body panels. All chrome was re-chromed with some pieces new. The interior was completely restored and everything is as new with the finest of materials. The Veglia gauges were refurbished and all work. The 1.3-liter was professionally rebuilt by an experienced and retired Alfa Romeo mechanic. The rebuild consisted of resurfacing the cylinder head, polishing the crankshaft, refurbishing the radiator and water pump, and fitting new pistons, cylinder sleeves, rod bearings, valves, and valve springs. An electric fuel pump has been installed. Additional work during the refurbishment included replacement of the following: Timing chain, Carburetor, Ignition components, Radiator hoses, Heater core, Muffler, the brakes were reportedly overhauled during the refurbishment with a rebuilt master cylinder and wheel cylinders as well as replacement front brake shoes and lines. The shocks, anti-sway bar bushings, and ball joint boots were also replaced and all other mechanical components to as new specs. The Rear differential was resealed and the rear axle bearings and rear center support bearings were replaced. The tachometer and speedometer cables were replaced during the refurbishment along with the ignition switch. The bumpers were re-chromed and the trunk lock, taillight assemblies, side mirrors, headlight bulbs, and license plate lights were all replaced.
