Hello
I have a 1974 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce that I am trying to sell because Winter is about to hit, and my girlfriend would prefer to be able to store her car in the garage (We don't have room for both, and unfortunately an Alfa isn't a family car). It currently has 76k miles, runs extremely well, starts great, and has had a ton of work done on it. I purchased it on 06/18/13 from North Carolina, and drove it back home to Indiana (it ran great the entire time). I originally paid $8,200 after haggling for awhile, before taxes. The VIN is AR3045828 if that helps anyone look up information about it. The dealer I purchased it from had just performed quite a bit of work. This is what they told me:
"Bright silver aluminum cam covers are a traditional Alfa look, and the new Weber side-draft carburetor has instant throttle response (don't worry, the original parts are included). Upgraded ignition parts, a new head gasket, and a fresh water pump mean it's ready to enjoy immediately. The 5-speed manual gearbox snicks through the gears and the suspension has a great combination of control and supple body movements, so the car is all-day comfortable. Four-wheel discs live behind stylish Ronal alloys carrying 185/70/14 Michelin radials."

On top of that, once I got it home, I wanted to fix the small issues I noticed (such as turning signals, mild oil leak, gauges, etc). And had the following done to it:
-Check Oil Leaks, replace upper oil pan gasket, rear main oil seal, had oil changed, new oil filter, new fan blade
-Check gas gauge, replaced fuel sending unit, replaced elctric fuel pump
-Check lights, rewired for updated flashers, turn signal flasher
-Repair oil pressure gauge, fixed
As well as some other work, for a total of $2,822.65. It runs great, I drive it occasionally when the weather is nice, otherwise it is kept pampered in the garage. It is legitimately extremely hard for me to sell it, as I adore the car, it really stands out from anything else on the road. I have not parked a single time at any store without having someone compliment me on it, (or even at stop lights!!). I originally bought it for my girlfriend, however considering the back seats are pretty small for kids (and only the front have seats belts) we really just don't get the time to drive it. (Well I do, but it's kind of selfish for me to keep it just for that
).
Here are some pictures and videos of it that I took today:

Thank you so much for looking, I will miss this car horribly

P.S. If anyone wants me to upload a video or has any questions, let me know. It also has a brand new starter, so it starts extremely easily, and shifts great. It's also a pretty fast car
If you want to contact me, the fastest way would probably be at

Thanks again.
