White sheet: 1968 Alfa Romeo GT Junior

This first-series Gt Junior features the distinctive “stepnose” bonnet and comes with matching numbers engine and body, for your pleasure.

Under the hood lies the original twin-cam 1290 cm³ 4-cylinder engine, producing 103 hp (SAE). Paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox and equipped with 4 ATE disc brakes, the mechanical components—including the engine, Weber carburetors, gearbox, and axle—are said to be in working order. This provides a solid foundation for restoration or performance enhancement, with the potential to boost output up to 165 hp at 8,400 rpm (with the help of lot of enhancements and money)

Having clocked nearly 100,000 km, the car has been sandblasted and coated with anti-rust epoxy primer. The seller says that while the bodywork and underbody are generally sound, they require attention: replacing side skirts, refurbishing the floors, addressing the rear window surround, and removing dents from the front and door panels. The interior is almost complete, featuring original upholstery, dashboard, instruments, and accessories—all ready for restoration. The chrome and bumpers are said to be in good condition, though the brakes, clutch, and suspension will need servicing. The bad: still a lot of budget needed. The good: no surprises at all about this project. Find it for sale at €13,900 (today $15,500) here in Boissets, France.
