“Osso di Seppia” (cuttlefish bone) is the nickname given in Italy to the heir of the Giulietta Spider, shown to the public for the first time in 1966, then called “Duetto”. In reality, the name “Duetto” was later removed due to the civil lawsuit filed against Alfa Romeo by an Italian food company that produced… Read More Osso Di Seppia: 1969 Alfa Romeo Spider 1300
We were amazed to see a Duetto in silver: it was a factory color code (AR728), however it is rare to find one that was born in this color. And in fact, this specimen, according to the seller, was born in white. The seller also says the car has been repainted by the previous owner… Read More Silver streak: 1969 Alfa Romeo Duetto
Let’s stay in France also today as we found a very interesting car, both in terms of model and price. The Duetto 1750, in fact, with the type 541 engine, was the latest evolution of that iconic car made famous by the film “The Graduate”, starring Dustin Hoffman: in the case of the film it… Read More Think green: 1969 Alfa Romeo Duetto 1750
We know more or less everything about this Duetto: the seller was clear about his conditions, but there is one thing – not a detail – that we have not understood. What is not clear (perhaps because it escaped us both in the auction and in the video published by the seller) is the engine… Read More Graduate from the 80’s: 1967 Alfa Romeo Duetto
Someone would say that this is the right car in the right place: every Alfa Romeo enthusiast knows the film “The Graduate” where a young Dustin Hoffman used to drive a car like this, painted with the same color, received as bachelor gift by his parents. This one, given its conditions, can’t ever be used… Read More Spider inside: 1966 Alfa Romeo Duetto 1600
The Duetto 1750 is the rarest among the Duetto (a.k.a. “Graduate”) model produced by Alfa: actually we didn’t event thought that this could be a 1750. And that’s because the asking price – for a real 1750 – is more than good, especially if the conditions of the car are as good as they seem;… Read More Red and clean: 1969 Alfa Romeo Duetto 1750
The seller of this rare Duetto 1750 to be “re-composed” says that this car is not available for international buyers, that’s maybe because it is sold with a Georgia bill of sale only. On the other sidehe says that the Georgia bill of sale is enough to obtain a title even in California, so for… Read More U.S.A. only: 1969 Alfa Romeo Spider Duetto 1750
This Duetto 1750 is actually a rare car as not many of these have been built with this displacement which is, according to many, the best road engine of the sixties. I personally had a GT 1750 Velce and that’s actually an extraordinary unit, plenty of power and with a revvy character, so no doubt… Read More Mauled: 1969 Alfa Romeo Duetto 1750
This 1969 Alfa Romeo Spider (aka “boattail” or “Osso di Seppia”) is the former project of a restoration shop but the owner of the shop says that they have so much work to do with other clients’ cars and there is no time left for this car. The seller says that some work has been… Read More Waiting for the sun: 1969 Alfa Romeo 1750 Spider
