Giulietta Sprint Speciale 10120*00681, 00120*01310. RM Sotheby’s is auctioning this car at the Duemila Ruote sale next month. It’s not very often that I am faced with a car where I honestly can’t decide if it’s totally original, or was very well restored at some point in it’s life. Maybe it’s the lack of wax and polish one usually expects a car about to be auctioned to have, maybe it’s the very even patina. My gut tells me this is an original car that has maybe seen some restoration work over the years, but mostly wears an understated glow of careful care.
Major props to the restorer if this is a restored car. I love the tiny little marker lights the cars around this VIN had. Stance and door shut lines look great – and even the drivers side windshield wiper arm is in a totally reasonable position.
