1964 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint Speciale

This beautiful Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint Speciale is heading to auction through Gooding & Company next month at Amelia Island for a estimate price of $125,000.

Great color scheme

The Sprint Speciale is unlike any other production sports car. Designed by Franco Scaglione, Italian automobile coachwork designer, who also had penned the Alfa Romeo BAT (3 cars were built: the BAT 5 in 1953, the BAT 7 in 1954, and the BAT 9 in 1955).

The Sprint Speciale remained essentially unchanged throughout production (only 1,366 coachbuilt sprint speciales), with later-series cars benefiting from the larger 1600 engine, front disc brakes, and suspension improvements.
