This truly is as close to an new Alfa Romeo GTV as you'll get! It got first place at the Malibu Alfa Romeo Concourse a few months ago.
I started with a rust free, original, California car and did a nut and bolt restoration. Every item on the car has been restored or replaced. The engine was totally rebuilt to European spec along with the transmission, brakes, suspension and steering. The car was stripped to bare metal and then resprayed. The interior was pulled out and retrimmed in leather instead of vinyl. The exact same seat pattern was used to keep it as true and original as possible. The dash wood was ordered from Europe and replaced and the dash its self was redone not capped. All the bumpers were polished and the other chrome work on the car is news....

The Alfa Romeo Alfetta until was an executive saloon car and fastback coupé produced from 19721984 by Alfa Romeo. It was popular due to its combination of a modest design with powerful engines, selling over 400,000 units until the end of its production run, but in the final years its sales were down due to Alfa Romeo's reliability problems that plagued the company through the late 1970s and early 1980s.
The Alfetta was the base for the GTV, a fastback coupé version of the saloon, introduced in 1974 as Alfetta GT, initially available only with the 1.8 litre (1779cc) version of the Alfa DOHC four. For 1976, with the final phasing out of the earlier 105 Series 1.3 and 1.6 litre coupes (GT 1300 Junior and GT 1600 Junior) and the 2.0 litre 105 series 2000 GTV, the Alfetta GT became a range, also available with the 1.6 litre (1570cc) and 2.0 litre (1962cc) versions of the same engine as the Alfetta GT 1.6, Alfetta GT 1.8 and Alfetta GTV 2000. The GTV designation was initially reserved for the 2.0 litre top version.
