The Alfa Romeo Spider, a Pininfarina masterpiece, first graced roads in 1966, an elegant successor to the Giulietta and Giulia Spiders. Its initial "Duetto" boat-tail design became an instant icon, evolving through three distinct series over nearly three decades. The Series 3, introduced in 1982, brought a more modern aesthetic with integrated rubber bumpers, a black rear spoiler, and updated interior appointments, while retaining the spirited character that defined Alfa Romeo. Beneath its captivating lines lay a robust twin-cam engine and a wonderfully engaging manual transmission, making it a favorite among enthusiasts for its accessible performance and undeniable Italian flair. This 1986 Series 3 Spider, with 273,427 miles on the odometer, embodies the enduring spirit of Alfa Romeo. Powering this convertible is the venerable 2.0L twin-cam inline-four engine, paired with a manual transmission that has recently received a comprehensive rebuild by Stewart Sandeman at APC, ensuring the notorious second-gear syncro issue is a thing of the past. Throughout the car, numerous steel components have been meticulously powder-coated in Galaxy Gray, a thoughtful detail that speaks to a commitment to both aesthetics and longevity. This Spider is ready to deliver the unfiltered driving experience only a classic Alfa Romeo can provide. Seize the chance to own a piece of automotive history, a true driver's car with a fresh lease on life.
