Hello Everyone
I'm looking for an illusive Giulia SS. I live in London but am willing to import (from Europe or the USA) the 'right' car. Anyone out there know of one for sale?
I'm looking for an original rust free car. Restored or otherwise. Needless to say that the bodywork is the most important factor.

Thanks

Hello,

I know 2 places where you can find one,
one is in the netherlands: www.thegallerybrummen.nl,
and the other is in Italy on www.portalclassic.com.
I hope to help you by this, by the way : if you buy one
of these I expect an invitation for a drive.

Greetings from Belgium,

Helsen Marino.

Thank you very much Helsenm. I have been searching for a very long time for the right car. However, I don't seem to be able to access the links you have provided. Can you please please give me other contact details ( Phone numbers).
Are you sure these cars and web sites are still current?
You are more than welcome to drive the car when and if I find one..
I went to a place in Holland called Automusa to look at one about 18 months ago but it was in very poor shape.

Looking forward to your reply.

Kind regards

berj

Sorry Helsenm
I did track those cars down... the links had extra dots and didn't work. Thanks anyway. One is a Giulietta and the other a Giulia 'Major' restoration project. Not sure if these are going to work out as I wanted a clean original or a restored car.
Ill ask prices and keep you posted. Thank you so much for your help. Please keep me in mind if you find anything else.

Regards

Berj,

The latest Classic Car mag flopped onto my doormat yesterday. The ad inside the back page for Paradise Garage shows a 1965 Guilia SS LHD. In white with beige/blue interior. Priced at £22,500. The good news is Paradsie Garage is near you at Sloane Avenue Mansions, Sloane Avenue, Kensington SW3 3JF Phone 0207 584 0660. It's also on their website at http://www.paradisegarage.co.uk/

Good luck, and if you get it, bring it up to Essex for a run out.

Talking about Classic Car mag, I just bought the April issue from the newstand today. You guys in London probably got the May issue already, is that correct?

Sigh...
I always buy the AutoCar like 20 days late. (compare to the date on the cover)

Hello again Berj,

I'm afraid you didn't search very good, because
on www.thegallerybrummen.nl you find a Guilia SS
from '58 color red in a superbe condition.
Price: only 25.000 euro's, what is much cheaper than
the one nearby your home and in alfa-red !!!!!!

Hopr to help you by this!

Marino.

Dave (djone 101) Thank you very much.... The mag must have flopped on my door step marginally before yours.... I went to see the car on Wednesday. Its a major restoration project though the car is original and 95% complete. It needs considerable investment to bring it up to scratch. I may be nieve but I was hoping to find a complete, driveable, honest basis for light restoration for around £16,000.... Is this mad? Thank your for taking the time to write....
With all the eyes out there, I feel more optimistic in finding one.

Helsenm - I can assure you that its a Giulietta SS. The giulia SS didn't come into production untill 1963... I don't think. The pictures are also clearly those of a Giulietta. The interior is slightly different. It has wrongly been advertised as a Giulia SS ( unless it has a 1600 engine which doesn't belong in there). Badges also say Giulietta SS.
Thank you once again for looking and I will check again to make sure I'm not going mad and that there aren't two cars on the same site.

I appreciate all your help.

Alfa Chan - yes the May edition is just out over here. We do get good classic car magazines in the UK.
