This auction is for my 1989 Alfa Romeo Spider Graduate with 44,900 actual miles. It is red with a black leather interior. It has had only a couple of previous owners before me and has obviously been stored inside and well cared for. There are quite a few Alfa Spiders out there but if you are looking for an original, unmolested, unrusted and unrepaired example, this deserves a close look. When I purchased the car it was in phenomenal condition. I researched the car online and found some pictures and articles where the car had been shown at car shows, with trophies that it had won. The paint is shiny and clean with only the smallest bit of road rash on the nose. See the pictures, you have to look close to see it. The bumpers are original and show little or no sign of any impact damage. I jacked the car up and crawled around underneath it and was amazed at the absence of rust or damage on the undercarriage. I had the interior out and the trunk as well, finding no rust anywhere, or previous repair. The exterior paint is all original as far as I can tell. The sills are original and as solid as new, as well as the door bottoms. To protect this very rare unrusted example I rustproofed the entire car with Waxoyl, a very effective rustproofing treatment from the UK. The wheel wells have been cleaned and rustproofed as well. The insulation under the carpet is as solid and original as the day the car was manufactured. The carpet was faded and a horrible shade of brown. The seats were just about perfect but were the original tan and vinyl as this was standard in the Graduate model. The replacements are original pattern black Italian leather from International Auto. The dash is solid and original, no cracks or damage. I spent the next year going through it to bring everything up to as close to new condition as possible. I replaced the following items:New tires" wheels" shocks front and back" brakes including rotors and pads front and back and calipers in front." front wheel bearings and seals" sparkplugs, filters and engine oil" changed transmission and rear differential fluid, replaced with Redline synthetic" new Interstate batteryThe interior was actually in very good condition other than the carpet. The dash and gauges are perfect, no cracks or damage. The floors under the carpet were dry and clean, no sign of rust or repair ever! I did not however care for the tan vinyl seat upholstery, even though it had no tears or rips (I still have them) so in the interior I replaced:New Italian leather seat upholstery as well as bottom seat foam." carpet set front and trunk" door seals and door panels" Nardi wooden steering wheel and shift knob" leather brake boot and shift bootOverall, a very nice example of an icon in the Sports car world. Oh yes, the top is the original I believe and in mint condition. The back window is clear all of the glass is original Alfa Romeo glass installed at the factory. The doors shut perfectly including the hood and trunk and all gaps are as from the factory.The car starts and drives perfectly, clutch feels strong, steering is tight.
