The Alfa Romeo Spider was Alfa Romeos follow-up to the Giulia Spider, which in itself was a variation of the two-door Giulietta with more powerful engines and updated exteriors. The Spider was further redesigned and produced in four generations from 1966 to 1994. Series 1 ran from 1966 to 1969 with the Series 2 taking over from 1970 to 1982/83. The Series 2 changed the exterior styling and over time using a variety of engines ranging from a 1.3L Twin Cam I4 to a 2.0L Twin Cam I4, all backed by a 5-speed manual transmission. The engine displacement also gave each Spider a corresponding designation, with the 1,290cc-equipped Spiders being known as the Spider 1300, 1,570cc ones as the Spider 1600, and 1,779cc ones as the 1750 Spider Veloce.
1971 saw the introduction of the most powerful engine on offer, a 1,962cc unit that replaced the 1,779cc unit and thus changed the cars designation from 1750 Spider Veloce to 2000 Spider Veloce. Between 1974 and 1976, Alfa Romeo equipped US models with large black rubber bumpers to meet the stringent North American crash requirements. Series 3 was introduced in 1982 and replaced the SPICA mechanical injection of earlier models with a Bosch electronic fuel injection. The styling wasnt revised until 1983, making 1982 models one-year-only cars with Series 2 bodies but Series 3 drivetrains. 22,059 examples of the US-spec Spider Veloce 2000 were produced.

This particular example, Chassis # ZARBA5411C1015150, is a one-owner 1982 model that was always garage-kept and maintained until the owner passed away in December of 2021 and the title was switched into the estates name. The car is finished in aqua metallic over a brown leather interior with matching deep pile carpeting and shows just 7,265 miles on the odometer. It was delivered via Port Newark to Century Motors Inc. in Cincinnati, Ohio with air conditioning and metallic paint being the only options installed. It came equipped with the fuel-injected 2.0L I4, limited slip differential, four-wheel power disc brakes, power windows, intermittent windshield wipers, and Campagnolo five-star alloy wheels.

This Alfa still has all of its original factory equipment, including the Panasonic AM/FM cassette radio, woodgrain steering wheel, and electronic digital clock. It was regularly maintained by its owner throughout its 39 years of ownership at numerous shops with service records dating back to 1984. Some of the craftsmen that helped keep this beauty on the road include the dealer it was bought from, International Auto Sport in Merriam, Kansas, as well as Carriage & Motorworks in Kansas City, Kansas. Its last oil and filter change, including coolant, gear oil, and a new battery, was performed in December of 2020. In September of 2021, it received a new cap and rotor, a new fuel line, and a new injector filter from Royal Autowerks in Overland Park, Kansas to remedy the stalling it was experiencing. It returned to that shop in October of 2021 for a new fuel filter, pump, and fuel pressure regulator.

In June of 2022, we gave the car another refresh at CR Cars Inc. of Philadelphia, PA that included new tank and inline fuel pumps, a fuel tank sending unit, flushed fuel lines, drained the fuel tank, new left door strap and mount, brand new tires, and detailing of all four wheels. Thanks to its careful ownership over the years as well as its recent refreshing, this Alfa Spider is currently in excellent mechanical condition and is ready to be thoroughly enjoyed by a new owner.

This Spider presents an exceedingly rare opportunity to own a classic Alfa Romeo in nearly factory-fresh condition and unbelievably low miles. With some minor tinkering, this Pininfarina-designed work of art will provide its future owner many years of gallivanting about on PCH curves or to the nearest Concours event. Upon purchase, the new owner will receive the original window sticker, original owners books, and all of the service records on file.
