1977 Alfa Spider

Description for Alfa Romeo Spider 1977

Alfa Romeo Spider mountain performance modified. For sale as parts or repair. Ran when parked. I am selling this car for the estate of a friend of mine who no longer can drive it. I offered to move the car to my front yard for his family so they can close on the estate in October. My friend bought the car in 1997 and drove it for 30,000mi., during that time he modified the engine with carburetors/manifold and performance headers replaced the crank shaft, pistons, oil pump, lower/upper timing chains/gears, water pump, various gaskets, valve cover, clutch plate. He drove it during Summer and covered or garaged it for the rest of the year. He parked it to replace the brake master/reservoir and replace a bolt for the rear muffler hanger. The car was turned over but not started a few weeks ago and no issues, that's what I was told by his brother. To start this car it is suggested to service the brake issue, prime the cylinders, drain/replace or top-up radiator fluid, flush the gas tank with some fresh gas( or feed some fresh gas into the carbs.), the engine oil is clear and clean, attach a battery( I have a small one that might work), turn over the engine without spark plugs---then attempt a full start. The top needs a rear plastic window, there's a fresh minor ding on the passenger side, driver side floor board hole repaired, some minor runner rust, no trim parts missing, all locks/windows work, windshield has a line crack, two sets of keys. All the removed factory parts for the modification are included. This car would make a good daily driver you don't have to worry about. If you want to ask more questions, ask eBay for my phone number. My typing is slow. I do not own this car and have limited knowledge about it, my friend did take good care of it. Sold 'as is', no returns, refunds, warranties. Ask questions before purchasing, if I can answer them I will. The car is for sale locally at a slightly reduced price and this listing will be deleted if sold locally. I do not have any kind of I-device, cell phone, laptop, I-pad to use eBay Motors app. I don't have any kind of texting device and cannot use eBay Motors app. I only have a desk top computer and a telephone land line. A normal phone call is best for detailed conversation. The Spider is covered with a waterproof car cover.
