AR751301roadItaly

The 1963 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT is the first of the Tipo 105 sporting models, styled by a then-22-year-old Giorgetto Giugiaro and distinguished by its characteristic stepped bonnet, Bertone badging, and aluminium twin-cam engine with twin Weber carburettors. This particular example underwent a thorough bare-metal restoration between 2011 and 2013, incorporating a number of GTA-derived mechanical upgrades, and is presented with extensive documented parts history totalling over £20,000 in components alone.

This car's public record is built from its auction and competition history. Register your ownership and privately add your own records to make it a verified Legacy Metrics passport — provenance that backs your car's value at sale and gives your insurer evidence to price against. Roy reviews and verifies every registration personally.

Each chassis record is compiled from public auction archives and links to its source material. Ownership, competition and maintenance entries are extracted from those catalogue listings by an LLM, which can make mistakes — please contact us with any corrections. The summary is Legacy Metrics’ own writing; we do not reproduce catalogue text.

“Full” and “partial” documentation labels indicate how well each entry is corroborated in the underlying sources, not an audit of the car’s physical paperwork. Names of recent or living owners are withheld for privacy.
