1973 alfa romeo gtv 2000 - rowlett, txenthusiast motorcars of texasrowlett, tx 75088ph: 2146959878web: www. Enthusiastmotorcars. Comoptions:description:reluctantly selling this italian masterpiece of an automobile; the 1973 alfa romeo gtv 2000. This is a documented one owner car with 76,500 original miles. Finished in rosso amaranto (maroon) and cuoio naturale (beige). Just looking at this little car can turn machismo into marshmallow. It epitomizes the concept of simple elegance. The provenance of this car is simple, one owner. It was purchased by a medical student while interning in a chicago hospital. As he prospered the car was used less and less. In 2007 it underwent an extensive mechanical restoration and respray in the original color. Starting with a solid, no accident rust free car, the original transmission, clutch, brakes and suspension were completely overhauled using original parts where possible and new where necessary. The original motor received a top end refresh and the original spica (societã pompe iniezione cassani & affini) mechanical fuel injection was professionally rebuilt. Since then the car has seen less than 2000 miles added. Still in its unmodified mostly base trim this car has all original sheet metal, glass and steel wheels. The only options being limited slip differential and radio delete. The unusual plum color is striking, but upon the most critical inspection shows some checking here and there. The original seats were dyed, they have great support but much of the pleats have lost their thread. The door panels and carpet have been replaced. The steering wheel, headliner, dash and the rest of the interior is original. The dash does have a few cracks. The only issue with this car is the passenger door stay is broken. The business side of things in hand and under foot seem, well italian. The 2. 0 liter aluminum twin cam 4 cylinder pulls strong and makes nice sounds. The gear box and clutch shift smoothly with no 2nd gear issues. The car rolls perfectly straight down the road without drama at 80mph. Brakes modulate well without fade. The driving dynamics of this car is amazing. It's not about finesse or brute force. It's about the car inviting the driver to complete the connection between its 130hp aria and 2200 pounds of balletic curb weight. It truly delivers that visceral sensation, the nirvana car guys talk about but seldom experience. Just writing about this car, searching for the words, i notice my breaths are short and my blood feels hotter; my mind races between the thought of driving it and the thought of just looking at it. My god, it feels like i'm cheating on my wife! It goes without saying that these cars are becom.
