GTV or GTV6?

I've had both. I'd go for a Bertone GTV; with the availability of go-faster stuff from Alfaholics the difference in performance between the two can be shrunk. But the GTV-6 is a great bargain, dollar wise.

Listen to this video and wait for the FIA Group A Totip GTV6 to go around. The 2.5 motor howls like no Giulia ever did!! There is another dark gray GTV6 that must have straight exhaust and hot cams that sounds almost as good.

OP gone...? i have had both cars in past. I still have the 69gtv and im thinking of selling after 25 years of ownership. I simply dont have the time to drive it anymore.

its warmed up a little with head work done by myself. 160ish hp on the magnaflow alfabb dyno day but stock spica looking street car still. kinda like a sleeper. tons of spare parts also in storage. besic cheater uprights, pair of sliding blocks, new rebuilt gearboxes, norman trap doors sump, Ebaich Coil over kit, spare TS motor, NOS TS head. WAY too much to list and im probably forget half of it... its stuff ive collected over the last 30yrs which i have no use for since i dont feel safe in tracking a 105 anymore without a cage. i must be getting long in the years

cheers

 

I have a GTAm clone that I'm selling. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to attach photographs. If you're interested, contact me.

 

I purchased this 1971 GTV 1750 in Arizona around 1992 and it stayed in Arizona, where I used it as a stock street car, until 1997. In 1998, I moved to the NYC area where it was garaged and rarely used, but was still well maintained and kept rust free. I won't go into details on the work that was done on the car during this period because, from 2007 - 2009, it underwent a complete rebuild by Ryan Pilla, a SCCA pro-driver who runs and operates the Car Doctor and Turnkey Drive. Ryan prepares and maintains customers' race cars and provides a fleet of race cars for rental during his private track days.

Together, Ryan and I planned and Ryan executed a total rebuild of my car with the intention of creating a car that would be exciting to drive on the street (neither a garage queen nor a daily driver) and still be able to be driven to the track for a track day or the occasional vintage race. This two-year project involved, among other things, the following:

Installation of rivet mounted fender flares and total paint job.

Interior re-work with removal of rear seats and installation of new carpets, headliner, roll bar, carbon-fiber leather seats from Ferrari 348 Speciale, racing harnesses on both sides, removable racing steering wheel and custom aluminum dash with racing gauges.

Polished, ported and balanced custom race engine with all of the goodies, i.e., valves, guides, stems and springs, 11 mm cams, high compression pistons, aluminum flywheel, 45 Webers with stacks and custom air intake, electronic ignition, clutch, alternator, etc. It was dyno'ed at slightly over 200 horsepower. While it may sound hairy, it's really very nice to even putter around town, other than the occasional backfire.

On the exhaust end, there is a custom manifold and side exit pipes. The entire drive train was upgraded and a heavy duty rear axle with limited slip differential was installed. Aluminum axle extenders were added front and rear, as well as a racing gas tank, cross-drilled brakes and 15X7 Panasports.

A new adjustable suspension was installed with camber adjustable arms and bushings, drop links, heavy duty shocks, springs and sway bars, etc. The car is lowered but still streetable. It can be lowered further for the track. Needless to say, even at its present height, it handles like a slot car.

The project was a labor of love and no expense was spared. After completion, I managed to bring the car to one track day and had the time of my life. Shortly afterwards, I was forced to stop track days due to medical issues. For the last several years, I have only driven the car on local streets and back roads accumulating about 3,000 miles since the rebuild. Verification of details can be obtained from Ryan Pilla and Vincenzo Latino of Auto Elite, who just installed a starter, alternator and battery, refurbished both the top and bottom end of the engine, performed a tune-up and detailing. A clutch was installed last year.
