Yes, GTA Jr.'s were aluminum riveted together like the GTA. Only difference was the discplacement and some trim.
Alfa Romeo built GTA's on the production line with the other Alfa's in their line up. Autodelta got ahold of some cars and prepared them to different levels based on what customers wanted. They built cars both their own team and select private teams.
GTA SA's only came in 1600.
Wide bodies were options for GTA Jr.'s and GTAm's in the late 60's and early 70's. You will see some 1600 GTA's with wide fenders fitted on them.

Why do you refer to Anthony's and Andrew's ex-Bartlett car as Autodelta cars?. Is this because they prepared them for racing at some stage?.
I thought ALL GTA's were assembled by Autodelta? ... am I wrong.
Thus my understanding is that we have the following:
- 1300 GTA (is this what you refer to as the GTA Jr? ... I assume so  , der I should save myself the embarrassment and remove the question above as brain has just started to work ...  ).
- 1600 GTA.
These cars were all produced as Stradale versions and then Autodelta turned a few into Corse (or race) cars and made some weird models, ie. 1300 GTAsa and GTA wide bodies, etc.
