1964 ALFA ROMEO GIULIA SPIDER, RHD, HUGE HISTORY FILE, CONCOURS? For Sale

One of just 404 right hand drive examples of the Alfa Romeo Giulia Spider (101. 19 version).

According to the Alfa Romeo Museum archives (email on file), this particular example was manufactured on October 25th 1963 (with optional front disc brakes) and sold to its’ first owner via Chipstead Motors, Holland Park, London on 21st September 1964.

The original service book for the car, which is included within the substantial history file, indicates it was first sold to a Mrs A Poyser of Marks Tey, in Essex followed by a Mr W. D. Partridge of Aldenham. Hertfordshire, shortly thereafter.

The service book shows that First County Motors of Southall, Middlesex serviced the vehicle on October 22nd 1965 when the speedometer recorded 7, 091 miles, presumably just prior to the sale to the second owner. There are several entries in the book indicating regular attention by Round Bush Garage near to Mr Partridges’ home in Hertfordshire. Mr Partridge gave regular care to the vehicle for more than ten years with the mileage recorded in the service book as a modest 27154 in April 1976.

By 1987, the vehicle had become the property of Alfa Romeo enthusiasts Lynne Doyle and Nick Smith who owned a successful restoration business in Essex and who were at the time restoring another classic Alfa Romeo. They were apparently to retain ownership of GHK 99B until March 2005 when it finally passed to Simon Brewer of Fulham, London. Again, the vehicle had much care bestowed upon it, as evidenced by the numerous bills and receipts within the history portfolio. Alfa Romeo specialists DTR European Sports Cars were entrusted with a lot of the work and in August 2010 they were able to acquire the vehicle from the owner.

Whilst in the care of DTR, the vehicle underwent a total restoration with the work including a full strip down, respray, rewire, a total engine and carburettor rebuild (new pistons, liners, bearings, crankshaft rebalance, cylinder head with new valves and conversion to unleaded) with the work undertaken recorded within an invoice of significant value within the history file.

In March 2011 DTR Sports Cars sold the Spider to Paul Jarrold in Bridport, Dorset with 85800 recorded miles which, with evidence from the history file, is believed to be correct. Further maintenance followed, including replacement of the soft top, a new stainless steel exhaust and a gearbox refresh. During three-and-a-half years of ownership, 8700 further miles were covered, including a trip to Northern Italy with a UK based Alfa Romeo club, with no reported problems. GHK 99B was also awarded with The Peoples’ Choice Award at the Simply Alfa Romeo gathering at the Beaulieu Motor Museum in June 2013, further confirming its’ outstanding condition.

Mr Jarrold finally decided to have a change of Alfa Romeo and, via an owner in between, it was sold by Southwood, a well-respected Alfa Romeo specialist, to the present owner in late 2017. During the current period of ownership, tasks undertaken include refurbishment of the wheels, a further gearbox/ seal refresh and improvement to the gear linkage, a brake refresh and adjustment to the steering geometry.

So, in conclusion, a superb example of a very rare car (reportedly less than 50 RHD examples remain) with what is believed to be its’ original engine and with the benefit of a super paper portfolio allowing for a totally researchable ownership history. The current owner has undertaken all of the above tasks to ensure that the vehicle now wants for nothing and is ready to be enjoyed by its’ next custodian. I have just undertaken a thirty mile journey with no issues to report. Please note that the hubcaps are present but have not yet been fitted due to the paint not yet being fully hardened following the recent refinish.

PLEASE CALL the details below or the details below AT ANY TIME TO ARRANGE A VIEWING – EVENINGS AND WEEKENDS ALWAYS A PLEASURE.

Located in South Norfolk – collection from Diss railway station never a problem. Nationwide delivery available at modest extra cost.

Many thanks for looking!
