1986 Alfa Romeo Sipider Quadrifoglio You Don't Want Any Later, Last Good Year on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
|
You don't want an Alfa Spider beyond 1986 because they started to get messy, starting with the bigger fuse box that your left foot would hit every time you pushed in the clutch unless you were really careful. I had the front clip painted with PPG original Alfa red, code 5 something, can't remember at the moment and I have the rest of the Gallon. Very expensive paint. I even have a gallon of the same code paint from another manufacturer. Koni's on the front and I have new ones for rear in the box. I have quite a few parts for this car, some are even nos oem that you can't even get repros of. It runs strong, good trans, brakes, etc. I took out the A/C when I did the radiator and just kept the electric fan hooked up to A/C switch. Not that I have ever even in the remotest needed to turn it on. Warms up fast and stays cool in all weather. I have all the A/C parts. No cut hoses!! Speedo works but Odometer does not. I have all the missing parts that are not shown in the pics. Original Radio pouch, extra soft top frame, NOS OEM in original box ash tray, smaller wooden Nardi type steering wheel, which is a blessing for us taller guys. Great battery, starts up first time every time, no matter how long it has been sitting. This is a good one, you can tell by how it feels going down the road. No major wreaks ever!! All fuel lines were replaced two years ago. Driveshaft was attended to as well. All 5 Quad wheels. No hard top. It has been on non-op for the past year, but I start it up all the time when I go to my Mom's house and drive it up and back the driveway. Tires were new 4 or 5 years ago and have very little miles on them. Listed mileage is approximate. I will update later. It is in the Los Angeles Craigslist at the moment. I am motivated to sell, but anything under $4800 does not get the parts. |

Next-gen Mazda MX-5 Miata mule spied 'Ring testing
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Fans of simple, lightweight motoring, rejoice - we now have images of the next-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata undergoing testing at der Nürburgring Nordschleife. Now, to be fair, this isn't some lightly camouflaged example that will give us a great peak of what the next Miata, which will also become the next Alfa Romeo Spider, will look like. This is a mule, with the new bits hidden under a current Miata's body. That doesn't mean there aren't a few scraps of valuable information here, though.
According to our flock of camera-toting spies at the Nürburgring, the next Miata is likely to grow a bit, as new models are wont to do. In particular, it will be longer and wider, and the wheelbase is likely going to be stretched, based on the shape of the wheel wells and doors. Both of those factors will add more space in the cabin.
Those are the big indications provided by these photos, but while the MX-5 might be growing, it's a safe bet based on these images that it, and the (likely pricier) Alfa, will retain the classic, long-hood, short-deck styling that so typifies rear-drive roadsters.
