The Alfa Romeo 2600 was introduced to the public at the 1962 Geneva Motor Show and served as a replacement for the 2000-series cars. Body styles included the Berlina Sedan, the Sprint Coupe, and the drop-top spider.
The 2600 Spider featured a hand-built body by Carrozzeria Touring and intended for long-distance touring. They had ample luggage space, a luxurious cabin, and a five-speed manual transmission. Power was from a dual overhead-cam six-cylinder engine offering 145 horsepower, which could carry the Alfa Spider to 124 mph. Sadly, this would be the last of Alfa Romeo's dual overhead camshaft inline six-cylinder engines.
This Spider was built in late 1965 and sold new in April of 1966 to George Bobello, a U.S. serviceman stationed in Germany. It came equipped with front and rear disc brakes, a rare improvement that was one made near the end of the production run. This 2600 Spider was then imported to the United States. After being stored for more than 30 years, and with only two owners for the majority of its life, it has recently undergone extensive restoration work wherever needed.
The restoration work included a full repaint in dark blue over red leather and a new top, carpets, chrome, shocks, brake and fuel soft lines, clutch master cylinder, and spark plugs. The original Solex carburetors, disc brakes, and wiper motor have been rebuilt, and the original wheels now wear correct, new Michelin tires.By Daniel Vaughan | Jan 2014
