  • si ma...metterla a posto non si finisce mai!!!è completamente marcia in modo passante,i lamierati sono da sostituire,sperando poi nella sanita' della meccanica,altrimenti si passa troppe volte il valore finale...

  • FUCK! did u shoot on that car ?????????

  • un vero peccato!!Mi piange il cuore....

  • se l'avete comprata per rimetterla apposto ok, se ce l'avevate già così  ... mi fate proprio schifo

  • Sell the others when your finished to repair the race-car. There are fewer, and its a legend. I'd rather see the racer running, especially since its an Alfa.

  • i love these cars... i first saw one of these cars at one of those track days when i was 13 i have been saving up 1 1/2 years and i have now saved 13.7k to spend

  • nooooooooooooooooooo :'''''''''''(

  • I love also in this poor condition!!!!

  • Russian steel in exchange for car factory supplied by fiat (Lada).

    The steel rusted before a coat of paint was applied, a real shame..

    Nissan/ Ford/ Mercedes whats your excuse??

  • Yes this is an Alfa, I live in Denmark, an 10 years on the road, and they got big rust problems. When the Alfa 156 arrived back in 1997, everybody said this car is the first car from alfa with no rust problems, they were wrong. When this is said, I also will point out, that i love Alfas, I think its the best car to drive if you can afford it.....

  • Shame, take a dedicated person to restore this alfa to its former glory, and heaps

    of cash, more than the car is worth in mint condition.

  • @Pinin500 Its that way with a lot of cars. But trying to restore an original hemi car is just as hard, if not harder. A lot of people would gladly take an Alfa to do body work on. If the body man knows its an original hemi car, they usually run away screaming (since if they do a mediocre job, everyone knows it and no one ever sends their cars there ever again). It takes balls 2 tackle one of them, but it can be worth it. But I think restoring an Alfa racer would be a more prestigious job though.

  • pure honest esthetics. This is a dream car. I'm sorry the I have to miss the smell of it...

    Love it.

  • heel kunstwerk

  • AUGURI SEMBRA UN IMPRESA IMPOSSIBILE!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is a ghost car. her destiny is give parts for other car like Giulia

  • How in the hell does a alfa get that bad i know they were prone to rust but im gobsmacked by the amount of rust in this gt wow if you look at my vids ive got a gtv 105 and i havent done anything to the body and mines barly got any rust on the bloody thing. I wish you the best of luck with this car mate id be interested to see how you got on..

  • Vettura recuperabile con molta passione e competenza,altrimenti se devi ricorrere a officine varie sei fottuto

  • That is far from gone. It can't be restored. It would be as if building another new car. You're better off buying another one in decent condition.

  • poor alfa romeo, one of the most beautiful cars created, i love this car! Could you say me the title of the song please?

  • This car is a very bad candidate for a restoration. I love GT's, but this car definitely isn't worth the money needed, unless you do the restoration by yourself.

    No less than 15-20k euros needed to do it.

  • AR...built in the historyc Alfa Romeo plant in Arese, near Milan. Now it is closed since many years, the production of actual Alfa Romeo's models take place in Fiat plants all over Italy, with technologies shared with the most of others manufacturers.

  • THE BEST CAR IN THE WORLD!keep going

  • Work, work, work,work,work... and work!

  • OMG that is sad :(

  • damn the prev owner who let that happen to the car is a asshole ...

  • that car is way to far gone to fix

  • oh my god you did pay anything for that?? let us know what happened in the meantime. I have a 1300gt junior from 71 I bought it 9 years ago in perfect conditions. in italy you can find them for little money. how much did you pay for that car??

  • this is absolut shit my friend, by all love to alfa romeo take of what you need, take out the motor and surch a better basic and built a car becose if not you will pay only rent for the place of that rest of metal what you have there, sorry

  • buona fortuna......la macchina è un mito, ma hai comprato un rudere di prima categoria!stucco a tonnellate..

  • that is a legend race car...

  • Nice rust! Where is the car?

  • it looks savable

  • r u fukd?

  • alfas cant die they just have weak livers!

  • you already have restored something at the car?

  • to bad, if you try to drive it it will fall apart after 10 meters, looks great from distance, but up close its a horror

  • ...devi essere un carrozziere eccezionale se sei capace di riaparare quella macchina, ti auguro tutta la sorte del mondo!

  • Dude good luck with it...! A lot of work to do (time+moneys). Btw good cars keep class even if in bad conditions. Bad cars not even if brand new.

    Cheers from Italy.

  • I believe I saw a nut somewhere on the left that was still usable

  • Ormai è andata, dispiace dirlo, per uno splendido esemplare... ma per riparare questa si spenderebbe il doppio del suo valore di mercato....

    Too Late buddy... :(((

  • mi dispiace che sta in questo modo fatela ripartire e bellissima

  • Wow that car barely represents the coolnes it had a long time ago but still one of my favorite cars. Good luck @ the restauration ;)

  • datela a me....vorrei sapere chi è stato questo mostro a lasciar perdere questa meraviglia....

  • Agli inizi degli anni 80 ricordo benissimo che i disfacimenti erano pieni di GT ancora in ottime condizioni, rottamati perchè avevano il difetto di consumare troppa benzina; io avevo 10 anni e soffrivo perchè li volevo prendere tutti e salvarli dalla distruzione. Ricordo come adesso un Giulia Sprint GT Veloce, rosso, con il pomello del cambio di legno e plastica trasparente con dentro lo stemma Alfa, stava poggiato in terra senza le ruote.

    Quest'auto ha un'aria non meno tenera del maggiolino.

  • this car must be repaired I love alfa romeu  and mainly the alfa romeu 164 e 2300 TI

  • ma è completamente distrutta!!

  • Comment removed

  • u are mad! =| gd luck but!!! Do a video response of the finishing result so i can see! =D

  • Look like there is a bit of chassis in the rust

  • The music is absolutely gorgeous!!!

  • it's a 1300 junior scalino?

  • ive recently just bought one myself to strip for spares.. the reason for this is the previous owner cut the fuckin roof of and replaced the nose with one off of the 2000 gtv. fuckin idiots

  • I love the car! What's the name of the song playing throughout the video?

  • This car has given it's life so that others may survive. The wheels have been restored and are in use on my '69 GTV, the engine has been rebuilt and lives in my Giulia Super, all of the trim and accesories are in storage waiting to be installed on a new step nose which is at the body shop. The 'B' pillars were used to restore a GTA and other bits of the body have been used for other cars.

    I hope to put together a video of the other cars as soon as the step nose is completed.

  • What a pity!! There was too much rust on this car, probably the restoration was impossible. Honor at this glorious car, died giving life at other Alfa Romeo; thanks to the transplant of a few components it will live in other beautiful cars (forgive me for my English not very well, I'm Italian).

  • your girl or wife has not killed you???

  • Comment removed

  • Too bad this is a parts car, restoration of the body is completely impossible w/o a new body.

  • OMG! Worst case of rust I´ve seen... Needs a new body! But it deserve one! Beautiful cars!

  • how proceed the intense activities?

  • Save it!!! It's not a car, it's a dream running on 4 wheels!!!

  • yes!!

  • good luck really really good luck the rust is one of the most famous problems of the old cars

  • Beauty in decay...

    Even when they die, they die in pure beauty...

  • a piece of our history (i am italian)

  • I hope you can do it, good luck and post a video of your work...

  • It'll buff out.

  • la mia era un relitto prima di essere restaurata....ma questa la batte

  • If you restore that car with a bunch of body filler you will be my hero. Sweet car no doubt but pretty screwed.

  • the multiple sunroofs are a great idea

  • Nice stainless steel.

  • still looks good

  • that's a goner

  • dead avto

  • mi viene da piangere a vedere un simile gioiello ridotto così... ma la promessa che ha fatto di salvarla mi fa stare meglio. Buon lavoro e complimenti per l'aquisto, non poteva fare di meglio!

  • the whole roof and the iron parts close to the glasses are gone... I don't know if it's posible to repair them... but I think you'd better keep the engine, rims and glasses and search for one that has less rust.

  • x rimetterla ci vorrebbero intorno i 10.000euro comunque l'auto merita di essere rimessa a nuovo

  • Questa macchina e piu che andata... si spendi tanti soldi la poi salvare... ma veramente TANTI soldi..

  • Added 2007....where have you gone? :(

  • The very best of luck to you. I thought I had rust on my Alfa but its absolutely nothing compared to this. Keep posting new footage as it develops.

  • any news?

  • Alfas are so beautiful but they rust sooo badly! Funny how you filmed the interior through the hole in the roof! Good luck and I hope you have alot of time, experience, or money!

  • show me a 35 yrold car with no rust

  • Good Luck.

  • Wow,

    This is FAR gone. Sure you want to invest money and time in this? bodywork must be all handmade. Or find a "donor" car?

    IMHO, its better to use this one as a donor for one less far gone.

    (and I can judge since I am working on a Giulietta Sprint in a state far gone, but not as far as this.....)

    Good luck!

  • Poor auntie Giulia...:(

    wish you all the best restoring this beauty

    just be patient!

  • Yhe agony I cat watch it hurts. Good luck and all kidding asside good for you.

  • anyone knows the song's title?

  • Sì dai..sistemala..fa male al cuore vederla così..

  • Salvala!!E' una delle più importanti auto sportive italiane di sempre!Il canto del cigno dell'Alfa Romeo.

    Save it!!This is one of the most important italian sports cars of ever.

  • You are a brave man! Hope you will be able to restore this magnificent car to very high standards! Greetings from Greece!

  • Brave guy. I guess you'll put it back on the road just to show ....

  • hey man i will provide you any information about this car i have just restored such a car.i am an classic alfa romeo speciallist.just ask what you need and i will help you

  • Nessuno e' morto finche' non e' sepolto...

  • dude... you have a lot of work to do... hope you can save it!!!

  • facciamola rinascere!

  • che senso ha metterla a posto? togli la meccanica, i vetri, la strimentazione e il resto in pressa. Spendi molti meno soldi nel trovarne una a posto. é compromessa questa.

  • Iworked on this car about fourteen years ago when it belong to a Dangerous Dan. It was very fast but the dunlop brakes could not stop the car.

  • I am glad to hear about the car. Is there any chance you have any photos or other information about this cars past? Who is Dangerous Dan?

  • I will look in my shop for photos.The owner prior to Dan used the Alfa for autocrossig.He took out the original 1600 motor and installed a 2000 motor.

  • The 2 liter was still in the car. It also had a custom fabricated aluminum dash and MG Midget seats. Also had a wooden deck in place of the rear seats.

    The rust is so bad that the fuel tank was completely rusted out on top, and yet was full of water. A slight nudge and the whole tank fell to the ground!

  • my friend the cost to repair the body and the interior will easily exceed the value of the car. Taking on a project always starts with a good base.

    Is it true that the car as been sitting at Longs cycles?

  • hey man i will provide you any information about this car i have just restored such a car.i am an classic alfa romeo speciallist.just ask what you need and i will help you

  • andf you know this car is a rare one its called gt junior and in italian they call it scalino because of the step in the front.its much more expensive than the gt veloce.

  • this is not a gt junior. for two reasons;been a usa model there was no juniors produced for usa and there were no juniors produced in 1964. I know this car very well as it was in my shop when it actually ran.

  • I would be interested in learning what you know about this car. I had one person claim that the car was previously raced by "

    Dangerous Dan", but no further information has come to light.

  • I just realized you are the same poster that knows some history of this car.  Do you have any contact information for others that may have more historical information?

  • @jthraen did you get rid of the body? i had one in similar condition before but decided to fiberglass it completely. it was a lot of work but in my opinion better than destroying it.

    let me know if you still have body parts.

  • good luck, my brave friend!! and I certainly hope you didn't pay too much for it! :-))

  • my heart hurts when I see a Alfa like this.

    But anyway the wheels looked good :)))

  • Good luck my friend!!!

    You are a true alfista

  • What are those screwholes in the rearwindow?

    I knew italian cars rust but didn't know on top of the roof! Good luck any way!

  • Devi sperare che lo chassis non abbia ruggine.

    Il resto è sostituibile,sono disponibili le repliche di tutti i lamierati.

  • I've parted out and scrapped better Alfas. It is possible to resurrect almost anything, it's just a question of value...

  • I've dismantled and scrapped better Alfas. Anything is possible, but this is folly.

  • SCALINO FOR EVER THE CAR IS GREAT

  • GOOD LUCK

  • This is making me sick

  • This will be a hard work, the car is in a really bad shape, so GOOD LUCK!! When you've finished the restoration it will be a pleasure to drive that car!

  • This boy has courage that, evaluated conservatively, should be considered legendary. A biblical resurrection.
