Between 1972 and 1975, Alfa Romeo produced just 402 Zagato Coachbuilt examples of the 1600 Junior Z. Of those, just 121 cars are known to exist in the Zagato Register, 12 of which are known to be in the United States. Zagato based the new coupe on an Alfa Spider chassis rather than a GT chassis to utilize its lightweight and short wheelbase, along with the shorter front and rear overhands. It was given a low-drag aerodynamic fastback coupe with a very low frontal area, low roofline, and fastback profile. Zagato gave the car a lightweight aluminum hood, ultra-lightweight bumpers, unique lightweight Zagato seats and a special lightweight dashboard devoid of a glove box door.
The 1600 high-performance 'S' engine was given double twin-choke Weber carburetors and a unique Zagato 'Ram Air' induction system fed by eight openings in the front clear headlight cover. Other bespoke Zagato features included an electrically elevating rear hatch for low drag flow through ventilation and construction taking place at both Alfa Romeo and the Zagato coachworks.
The high-performance mechanical specifications and lightweight construction prohibited Alfa Romeo from originally offering the car in the United States. The Junior Z was expensive to produce resulting in just 402 examples produced.
This 1600 Junior Z has just 56,450 km on its odometer. It has its original high-performance 1600 'S' Ram Air engine, original seats, door panels, and interior trim, and even its original muffler and undercoating. In June 2015, it was comprehensively serviced.
The car is powered by a 1570cc dual overhead cam aluminum four-cylinder engine fitted with dual Weber 40DCOE 2-Barrel carburetors and offering 123 horsepower. There is a five-speed manual transmission and four-wheel disc brakes.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2015
