This Alfa Rometo GTAm recreation is a superb competition tribute crafted from a 1750 GT Veloce, which has been fully restored and upgraded to mimic the 1970s racing icon. It is powered by an uprated 2.0-litre twin-cam engine, which sends power to the rear wheels via a crisp five-speed manual transmission. The odometer indicates just 86,501 miles from new, and the vendor reports that the car has been used sparingly since the rebuild. Restoration and upgrade work has been completed using a selection of Alfaholics and Classic Alfa parts, and has touched all aspects of the car, including the mechanical components, the bodywork, paint, and the interior. This Alfa Romeo started life as an original right-hand drive 1750 GT Veloce, which was built in 1969 and first registered in 1970. Fuelled by Weber 45 carburettors, its 2.0-litre engine has been fully rebuilt and now features larger valves, shot-peened pistons, a ported and flowed head, and improved connecting rods, among various other upgrades which allow the unit to produce in the region of 200hp. The car features replica GTAm extractors and an exhaust system by Classic Alfa. In terms of the structure and bodywork, the chassis was stripped down inside and out, and any compromised metal was removed before the car was re-sprayed in the classic hue of Alfa Rosso. Lightweight fibreglass front fenders have also been installed. The interior has been restored and replaced where necessary. The dash was restored and fitted with new wood trim, the window seals and rubbers were replaced, and the rubber mats, seats, door panels, roof lining, and door handles were all replaced with new items from the Classic Alfa and Alfaholics parts catalogues. The exterior has been fitted with new rear lights, front lights and indicators. The car now rides on authentic set of 13-inch lightweight cold-pressed alloy GTAm wheels. Further mechanical work includes the fitment of a new brake system, refurbished brake boosters, and new Koni yellow shocks and springs. The car has also been fitted with a custom wiring harness with an electrical fuel pump kill switch and a total kill switch. The car is accompanied by a folder of invoices documenting the restoration spend, as well as four keys. There is no impact damage present on the bodywork. Having been recently resprayed to a very high standard, the Alfa Rosso paintwork is in excellent condition, and the car has only been driven sparingly since being refinished. Inside, the cabin is similarly smart, and the only noticeable blemish is a small cigarette burn on the base of the driver’s-side rear seat. There are no known faults with the car, and no warning lights are showing on the dashboard. This Alfa Romeo 1750 GT Veloce is a thoughtful tribute to the iconic GTAm cars of the 1970s. Lovingly restored and upgraded using a selection of the highest quality parts, it is reported to be in fine mechanical fettle, and has covered very few miles since the rebuild. As a result, this classic Alfa Romeo is now ready to put a smile on its next owner’s face, whether as a head-turning entrant into any number of car shows, or simply as an exciting companion for weekend drives on winding country lanes.
