This 1979 Alfetta GTS was taken off the road in 1987 and stored in a garage with the mileage reading 57,000 miles. A very original car with dealer rear window sticker still in place.
The restoration started in July 2015 and was completed by September 2016. It was a long process, with plenty of hurdles along the way, but the finished results were worth every second. Where possible, all original parts were repaired and where new parts were needed, a great deal of care was taken to source parts which were in keeping with the original spec.

THE RESTORATION
ABOUT
The Alfa Romeo Alfetta GTS was a limited edition for Alfa Romeo Great Britain and was manufactured between 1978 and 1979. The exact number manufactured unfortunately is unknown and there is a possibility that very few remain.
The Alfetta combined classic Italian styling with high speed and advanced technology to create a car that, in the word's of Alfa Romeo themselves, was...
"Efficient – yet so beautiful."
​
Alfa Romeo were well ahead of the game in terms of creating what we know as a modern motor car. They used their years of experience designing racing cars, to create a car that had good road holding at a high speed yet was safe, luxurious and practical.
