VIEWING BY APPOINTMENT ONLY PLEASE
- This Giulia Spider joined our Black & White Collection in March 2008 and was sadly sold in November 2012 due to the purchase of our 1957 Giulietta Sprint "Giulie".
- Built on April 9th 1963 in white with a red interior, and sold new on May 15th 1963 in Busto Arsizio, just north west of Milano.
- Built as a Spider Normale model but later converted to Veloce specification.
- Prepared for racing in 1983 by Corrado Cupellini in Italy.
- Raced throughout the 1980's in many European championships at such legendary racing circuits as The Nurburgring, Spa Francorchamps, Monza, Imola, Mugello, Varano, Monthlery and Brands Hatch.
- Competed in the 1988 Coppa d'Italia winning first place on one stage.
- The car competed in the 1990 Carrera Panamericana in Mexico with the Scuderia del Portello, driven by Franco Meiners and Corrado Cupellini.
- FIA competition papers granted and issued in March 1999 and then FIA HTP (Historic Technical Passport) papers were granted and issued in September 2009.
- In 1999 the car competed in the Coppa Intereuropa.
- Imported into England in February 2001 after being sold by a car dealer in Paris, France, and then registered in the UK for road use in August 2006.
- Rolling road tested in July 2008 by Mech Motorsport in Cheltenham when the car produced 125 Bhp at 6,500rpm at the wheels and 108 lb ft torque at 5,300 rpm.
- Engine fully re-built and new 10.9mm Columbo and Bariani cam shafts fitted in January 2009.
- This special car is in fantastic condition and can be used in many different road rally and race track events throughout the world. It is ready to perform for a new owner and will be very missed by ourselves when sold.
