Offered for sale is this 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale (SS), a beautifully styled and historically significant Italian coupe born from Alfa Romeo’s racing heritage. Designed by Franco Scaglione at Bertone, the Sprint Speciale took inspiration from the radical Berlina Aerodinamica Tecnica (B.A.T.) concept cars, with a streamlined, wind-cheating body shaped for maximum aerodynamic efficiency. Produced in limited numbers, the SS featured a lightweight unibody, alloy panels in early examples, and the venerable 1.3-liter twin-cam engine, making it both an engineering and visual masterpiece. Built during the golden era of postwar Italian design, the Giulietta Sprint Speciale is widely celebrated for its fluid form and rarity, and it remains one of the most collectible Alfas of its generation.
This particular 1960 example presents with a history of thoughtful preservation and restoration, backed by extensive documentation. The car underwent major bodywork and paintwork, both of which are supported by a large volume of photo documentation included with the sale. These photos offer a clear, detailed look at the work performed and the car’s condition throughout its restoration process—an invaluable resource for collectors. In 2009, the engine received major mechanical work, ensuring continued performance from its characterful 1.3-liter inline-four. Importantly, this Sprint Speciale also comes with comprehensive documentation of its work history, detailing service and restoration efforts over the years. That level of transparency and historical continuity makes this a particularly appealing example for discerning enthusiasts. With its sculptural Bertone design, period-correct presentation, and robust documentation, this Giulietta SS is a standout opportunity to acquire one of Alfa Romeo’s most iconic and desirable models—ready to show, enjoy, and preserve for the next generation.
