1986 Alfa Romeo Spider, 2 Owner, No Rust, Straight Body, Needs Some TLC
Description
Red over light charcoal leather black canvas top . Owned and driven by an adult since new. Only 2 actual owners our client bought this Alfa like 25 yrs ago from the owner of a company he worked for many years. We do not think its ever been hit and there is no rust in the body or undercarriage and no repairs of rust or accidents we can see. Straight nice body interior all good not perfect but nice. Look well at the pictures we have shown all faded spots for you. There are some nicks scratches in the paint and some faded spots also around the doors hood etc However polished up from 20 feet away she looks like a show car, but this was a driver on Saturdays for 25 yrs never intended to be a garage queen or show car. It needs a back window in the top its very foggy but top is very nice. Runs well drives well and with the exception of a few minor issues like sticky door hinges, a rattle or 2, truck release handle is very loose as normal with these cars they do have inherent issues but nothing big with this car mostly just irritating small stuff. The Odometer does not work and has not worked for approx 5 years. It needs a speedo generator and they are hard to find. The previous owner says the 104.000 is very close to the real miles because the car has been stored at his daughters house for 5 years or so. Title from 1997 shows 91,807 miles marked ACTUAL. The gentleman traded in his toys cars, jeep motorcycle boat because he was having hip surgery so the Alfa had to go also. We have driven the car approx 20--30 miles from his daughters house to our office along with his other toys. It ran well strong actually, smooth shifting tight running 60-70mph, a small rattle or 2 we think exhaust related, but overall you will love this little Alfa for the money you spend. We have a low very realistic reserve on the car to give you room for some of the repairs you will want to do. We feel drive it anywhere you like just as it is but it will need back window and miscellaneous repairs down the road to be a real nice car again. The previous owner has given us books spare parts etc and also told us its fine to give out his name and phone to the new owner just so you can have all history on the car. I think he would enjoy knowing where it goes and who is the new owner. Do not let the price scare you we are just being realistic on the car.
