1971 Alfa Romeo GTV / GTAm-R

Project Car #1: 1971 Alfa Romeo GTAm-R
<<>>

The Alfa Romeo project was born as a collaborative effort between JP Saleeby & Al Leake of Boulder Creek, CA. To take a 1971 Alfa Romeo GTV and configure into a GTAm. Replace all suspension, transmission & motor with updated components. A minimalistic approach, with a no frills interior, an utmost regard for driver & passenger safety and keeping costs affordable.

The "shell" of the GTV stripped down to bare metal to have wide fender flairs (GTAm) added.



A refreshed Twin Spark motor out of a mid 1980's model 75 was used as an upgrade
