1971 Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior

This Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior is an attractive Italian classic, with a sensible engine upgrade. It is now powered by Alfa’s 1.6-litre twin-cam engine, rather than the original 1.3-litre unit, which sends power to the rear wheels via a five-speed manual gearbox. The odometer currently displays 65,620 miles, however this is not warranted. This right-hand-drive GT 1300 Junior passed Australian compliance in June 1971. Build year: 1971 The car is finished in white over a black vinyl-trimmed interior with black rubber floor mats, and accented by handsome light wood veneer inlays on the dashboard. It rides on the correct set of 14-inch painted steel wheels with chrome hubcaps featuring Alfa Romeo script, which are fitted with Michelin and Bridgestone tyres. The specification includes a ‘Bakelite’ three-spoke steering wheel, opening quarter lights, embossed metal sill tread plates, basic heating and ventilation controls, the original chrome bumpers, and now a Pioneer radio CD player head unit. The seller notes that there is one original ignition key included in the sale. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. The seller notes that the right-hand window winder mechanism requires replacement and the ignition switch needs attention. It is also noted to have benefitted from a repaint around 12 years ago. The latest service was carried out in 2024 at an indicated 65,200 miles. The work comprised of an engine oil and filter change service. The seller notes the two prior services were performed by il Bolido Rosso, Northcote. This Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior is a sought-after right-hand-drive example, which has been enhanced with a 1.6-litre inline-four and has benefitted from a repaint in its attractive white hue. A lively and engaging road car with glorious Giugiaro-penned styling, this GT Junior will make a stylish addition to any collection of classics, and will no doubt delight its next owner every time its raspy twin-cam engine is fired into life.
