Chassis AR 776142 is a 1973 Alfa Romeo 1300 GTA Junior, completed in Biancospino white on 23 November 1973 and delivered to AutoBecker in Germany. After remaining unsold for several years it passed to a second German dealer, was then privately purchased and imported to Japan in 1983, and remained there for approximately 35 years. Acquired by its most recent owner in 2018, the car was restored to factory Stradale specification; the odometer reading of 52,000 km is believed to reflect original mileage.
