Bought as a demo in Atlanta and driven only on weekends for 47 years, this 1978 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce in British Green maintains a distinctive Italian profile. The full repaint shows quality workmanship while preserving the car's original character. The tan cloth convertible top provides perfect contrast against the verdant exterior. Rolling on era-correct 14" Cromodora Campanatura alloy wheels with P185/70R14 radial tires, this Spider cuts a classic silhouette on any road.
Inside, the tan vinyl interior remains remarkably preserved after four decades. Original bucket seats stay protected under wool seat covers, showing minimal wear throughout. The uncracked dash houses factory instrumentation including the oversized tachometer that dominates the driver's view. An AM/FM cassette player provides entertainment while cruising with the top down. The wood grain steering wheel offers direct connection to the road while the console-mounted shifter falls naturally to hand during gear changes.
Mechanically sound, the 2.0L inline 4-cylinder engine provides spirited performance typical of Italian sports cars. The 5-speed manual transmission allows full control over the rev range. Manual steering gives feedback directly from the road surface to the driver's hands. Four-wheel power disc brakes bring everything to a controlled stop when needed. The dual-to-single exhaust system produces the signature sound that's unmistakably Alfa. Fuel injection ensures consistent performance in all driving conditions.
