1989 Alfa Romeo Spider Description
Have owned this Spider for roughly 15 years, 2nd owner. Car was originally purchased new in Pittsburgh.
Vehicle has many new parts and runs and looks good and very fun to drive. Haven't driven the car in about 2 years, currently stored in my warehouse collecting dust. I Have no time to drive it and the reason why it is for sale.
Here is a list of some recent updates;
- New clutch - less than 1 mile on it since performed (2015)
- New Top - 2015
- tires all 4
- air induction hose
- carrier bearings, u-joints
- motor mounts
- oil pan guard
- exhaust header
- radio speakers - bluetooth, hands free phone
- Battery
- All fuel pumps (tank, and in-line under car)
- oil pressure sensor
- clutch master cylinder / clutch slave cylinder
- Radiator re-coiled
- water pump
- brake master cylinder
Problems/ issues;
- Car has AC there is no fan belt on the compressor, not sure if it would work.
- mileage is off, the car shows 44,xxx, it probably has close to 45,500 miles since the odometer does not work properly. Trip meter works. The car has only been driven about 200 miles in the past 5 years, very little use over the 15 years I have owned it.
- There is a small exhaust leak in the center of the car, I think it is coming from the converter area, have tried to patch it.
- The original hubcaps came loose and I lost them, and I installed older Alfa center caps so the wheels look descent. I think it adds a sportier look than the plastic hubcaps.
- Passenger side mirror, snapped off and I used epoxy and a radiator hose clamp to secure it.
- Rear axle leak where driveshaft connects to rear main pumpkin drips a few drops.
- Dash has cracks
- Has had some body work due to rust in the trunk, front spoiler, 60-70% of the car has been repainted
What works good;Lights, heat, radio, steering, brakes, windshield wipers, windows crank up and down, engine starts right up, idles good.
What's included in the sale other than the car; blue car cover, original tool kit, cover for convertible top, owners manual, 2 sets of keys (everything that is in the pictures).
Again this car is not perfect and is not advertised as such. The car runs and goes good, very fun to drive.
