1979 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce

1979 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce The 1300 and 2000 cars were modified in 1974 and 1975 respectively to include two small seats behind the front seats, becoming a 'two-plus-two' four seater. The 1300 model was discontinued in 1977. Also, between 1974 and 1976, the early-style stainless-steel bumpers were discontinued and replaced with black, rubber-clad units to meet increasingly stringent North American crash requirements.
The 1979 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce had a base price of $11,195 and was powered by a dual overhead cam four-cylinder aluminum engine offering 111 horsepower. The engine was mated to a five-speed manual gearbox and disc brakes were installed at all four corners.

The price of the Spider Veloce rose by $2,000 over the prior year. This was perhaps the biggest change for 1979. Standard equipment included an electronic tachometer, trip odometer, lighter, two-speed heater, hydraulic clutch, chrome exhaust, windshield washer, hand throttle, tilt steering wheel, and reclining bucket seats.

Engine sizes shrink and....
