About this Alfa Romeo 1750 Spider Veloce

Alfa Romeo’s pretty little Duetto (Boat-Tail) Spider first appeared at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1966 and was simply launched with the name 'Spider 1600'. It was based on the highly successful 105-series chassis which it shared with the Giulia coupe and saloon. Italian's routinely call the long-running Alfa Romeo Spider (made in four series between 1966 and 1993) 'Duetto' (Duet) despite this word never appearing anywhere on either the car or the related promotional material.

As successor to the Giulia Spider, the Spider remained in production for almost three decades and the first three Series were assembled by Pininfarina in Grugliasco and the fourth Series in San Giorgio Canavese. The last Spider of that series was manufactured in April 1993 — the last rear wheel drive Alfa Romeo before the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione of 2007.

The new Duetto was the last project that the company’s founder Battista Pininfarina had a personal hand in, and he was rightfully very proud of the results. The beautiful design is characterised by the distinctly sculptured body sides and the signature tapered tail treatment. To many enthusiasts, the Duetto is the purest expression of the Spider range and the most desirable variant from the 27 year production run.
