Alfa Romeo's Spider was introduced in 1966; the Spider's initial design was the one of the last works overseen by Pininfarina founder Batista 'Pinin' Farina beautiful shape with a tapering tail to balance its sloping nose with covered headlights.

The original Alfa Romeo Spider did everything well, andling: suspension setup used coil springs and telescoping shock absorbers; unequal length A-arms at the front and a well located rear axle. With four wheel disc brakes, 5-speed transmission and a decidedly up-market Alfa twin cam four of cast aluminum.

An aluminum valve cover crowned the head, overing twin, hain-driven camshafts beneath it. Those camshafts actuated valves within hemispherical combustion chambers, ith a spark plug properly located between the valves and cast iron wet liners to provide durability

The Alfa Duetto was one of the curved-tail Spiders, nd it used a 1,570cc version of the Alfa twin cam. Succeeding the Duetto in the U.S. market was the Spider Veloce of 1969 - which used a 1,779cc engine and the advanced SPICA mechanical fuel injection system. In 1971 the Spider Veloce continued with the 1,779cc engine but the curved-tail styling disappeared, eplaced by a then revolutionary Kamm-tail treatment (cut-off-tail.)

All American market Alfa Spiders from 1972 used a 1,962cc version of the all-alloy engine. For 1975, he U.S. cars included larger bumpers to meet new USA standards.

Achieving worldwide acclaimed celebrity to the 'Spider', he 1967 film 'The Graduate' which starred Dustin Hoffman, rought unbelievable attention to the Alfa Romeo line.
