According to Automobilismo Storico Alfa Romeo, the chassis number AR 1369869 originally corresponds to an Alfa Romeo 1750 GT Veloce (105.44), manufactured on the 24th July 1969 and sold on the 25th July 1969 to Alfa Romeo Germany, Frankfurt. The original body colour is metallic light grey, with a brown leather interior. We purchased this 1750 GTV in 2013 from a long-time owner in Calgary, Alberta, in Canada. It had been painted a bronze/gold colour and still had much of its original interior. The car was running and driving, but deserved to be brought back to "as new" condition.
We began to work on the car ourselves, sourcing a correct European interior, in black, and began disassembling the car. Fast forward three years and not a lot of work later, we decided to turn the restoration over to Coachwerks Restorations who embarked upon a four year, no-expenses spared nut and bolt restoration. Restoration receipts total a staggering $230,000 CAD ($170,000 USD). We documented the process from the beginning to the end and have a large file of photos and receipts on hand. This is truly one of, if not the best example of a 1969 1750 GT Veloce with the highly desirable Weber carb set-up in the even more desirable European delivery configuration with single headrest. If you wanted one of these new in 1969, but couldn't make it happen back then, then here is your second chance. Nothing was missed mechanically or cosmetically. This GTV is jewelry.
