General description and historical certifications

This outstanding Alfa Romeo 1750 Spider Veloce (type 105.57) represents one of the most authentic and desirable examples of Alfa Romeo’s classic spider production.

The car is accompanied by an ASI (Automotoclub Storico Italiano) Certificate of Historical Relevance and an official certification from the Alfa Romeo Documentation Center, both of which confirm the vehicle’s originality, provenance, and historical accuracy.

According to the Alfa Romeo Historical Documentation Center, this rare “long tail” (codalunga) 1750 Spider was produced on June 4th, 1969 and sold in Milan on June 26th, 1969, confirming its fully Italian origin—an extremely desirable feature among collectors.

An additional key historical feature is the recovery of the original black Milan license plate from first registration, made possible thanks to the complete and detailed history of the vehicle and updated ASI regulations. This significantly enhances its collectible value.

History, preservation, and provenance

Over the years, the car has had several owners, resulting in changes of province and license plates. However, thanks to a complete and detailed documentation, its full history has been accurately reconstructed.

The car has always been well preserved and has undergone careful conservation work, avoiding invasive restorations and maintaining as much originality as possible—an approach highly valued in today’s collector market.

In recent years, it belonged to several collectors before becoming part of an important private collection owned by a well-known historic Alfa Romeo dealer in the Milan area.

Today, the car presents itself in excellent cosmetic and mechanical condition, ready for use or display.

Technical specifications of the 1750 Spider Veloce

The 1750 Spider Veloce represents a significant evolution over earlier Alfa Romeo Spider models.

It is powered by a 1.8-liter (1,779 cc) inline four-cylinder twin-cam engine in light alloy, equipped with carburetors (as specified for this example), producing حوالي 118 hp (83.90 kW).

Key technical features include:

  • Twin overhead camshaft (DOHC)
  • Carburetor fuel system
  • 5-speed manual gearbox
  • Disc brakes on all four wheels
  • Rear-wheel drive
  • Excellent weight distribution

The Tipo 105 chassis, combined with advanced suspension for its time, provides precise, sporty handling while remaining comfortable for touring.

Equipment and configuration

This example features a highly elegant and desirable color combination:

  • White exterior
  • Red vinyl interior
  • Black soft top

A classic and period-correct specification, highly appreciated in the collector world.

The presence of the original carburetor setup further enhances authenticity and appeal.

Why the 1750 is more desirable than the 1300 and 1600

The 1750 Spider Veloce is widely regarded as the sweet spot in the Alfa Romeo Spider range.

Compared to the 1300:

  • Significantly better performance
  • More torque and drivability
  • Better suited for long-distance driving

Compared to the 1600:

  • More powerful and flexible engine
  • Improved chassis and braking system
  • More refined and better equipped overall

The 1750 offers a perfect balance between classic design purity and enhanced performance, combining the beauty of early “long tail” models with more advanced engineering.

Rarity and collector value

Production numbers of the 1750 Spider Veloce were relatively limited, and even rarer are examples that feature:

  • Certified Italian origin
  • Complete documentation
  • Matching numbers (chassis and engine)
  • Well-preserved, non-invasively restored condition
  • Recovered original license plate

This car encompasses all these attributes, making it a highly desirable collector’s item and investment-grade classic.
