Original Alfa Spider by Chris Rees Pdf
Immortalized as Dustin Hoffman's transport in The Graduate, the Alfa Romeo Spider enjoyed an extraordinarily long production span of 27 years. Launched as the 1600cc Duetto with Pininfarina's simply-styled round-tailed body, it got a 1750cc engine and a boxed off tail in 1969, grew into a 2000cc in 1970 and was saddled with rubber bumpers in the 1980s, but mercifully lost them in 1990. Chris Rees has assembled a comprehensive production history of the car that was offered in literally dozens of different versions with a bewildering multiplicity of minor changes and variants. This task has never been properly attempted before, and the result is sure to be eagerly seized upon by the thousands of Spider enthusiasts hungry for a definitive volume.
