Today we bring you a show car -- this 1969 Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV.
This car was imported from Germany 40 years ago and has had a glass-out repaint recently.
Other recent work includes new weather stripping, new carpets, Eibach springs, Bilstein shocks, new trailing arms, new carbs, and new tires. The seller says everything works as it should and the dash and headliner are in good shape.
It's located in Vancouver but the seller says importing it won't be hard or expensive. The ask is $75,000 USD.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

- 28-Cars-Later Suggestion for future QOTD: Given the fact US road infrastructure is crumbling around us why must all new cars have 20+ inch wheels with tires an inch or two thick in sidewall which literally become bent over time bc of potholes? I know initially in the 90s wheels got bigger to accommodate larger disc brakes but its gone a little too far given the road infrastructure don't ya think?

- SCE to AUX I can't warm up to the new look. Still prefer my 22 SF.
- SCE to AUX I guess the direct sales stores weren't polled. Unless dealers are going out of business, I don't feel one bit sorry for them. They should most fear the mfrs who are eager to get rid of them, reducing costs and increasing customer satisfaction.

I love older european cars. An off brand (non MB BMW) shows your taste and polish.
Didn't Horst Kwech, The Mad Alfa Drive, race a version of that back in the day?
