Deposit of $1K through Paypal at end of auction and the balance through direct wire transfer or cash within 5 business days. No exceptions. Cashier's checks will be accepted but they must clear my bank first before I release the vehicle.

There are only 140 known examples of the S/S left in the world. If you have been actively searching for a clean one requiring little extra work I suggest you come see this car.

Most of these Alfas have been restored and salted away in prestigious collections. As of late, basket cases with mismatched parts have sold for $20K.

This one is all original, running well and ready to occupy your spare time. There is no doubt this is one of the sexiest cars ever made and is not cheap.

Please, serious bidders and inquiries only. I am an experienced exporter and can ship to any foreign location. This is an as is sale.
