Alfa Romeo Montreal – 1974

Alfa Romeo Montreal, year 1974.

Colour green metallic (verde medio AR223) combined with a beige leather interior and cognac brown carpet.
This magnificent Alfa Romeo Montreal comes from a discerning collector and the car is in an excellent condition! In the period 2017-2020 the car was improved to a high standard.
The engine was fully overhauled and rebuilt, the SPICA fuel injection system was overhauled by the world’s best specialist in the USA, and the suspension was uprated with a Montreal handling kit developed by ex-Autodelta driver and suspension specialist Harvey-Bailey.
Furthermore, the drive line and brakes were rebuilt, the Bosch fuel pumps were exchanged for Walbro pumps, and the exhaust was renewed.
The body was restored in places and given a wonderful new paint system, the seats were newly upholstered with beige leather and the dashboard instruments were overhauled.
The costs for all these improvements added up to about € 50.000.
It is easy to understand that this alfa Romeo Montreal drives, handles, shifts and steers perfectly!
The V8 sounds impressive, the 5-speed ZF gearbox shifts snappy and precise, and the driving experience is wonderfully balanced between sport and comfort.
Oh, we love these cars!
The Montreal was designed by Bertone as a concept car for the future (based on the alfa Romeo Tipo 33 racing car) and exhibited on the Canadian World Show in Montreal in 1967.
In 1970 the concept materialized as the Alfa Romeo Montreal with a 200 bhp version of the Tipo 33 engine fitted in front.
The Alfa Romeo Montreal is a superb Gran Turismo which is capable to drive long distances with high speeds, with ample comfort for the passengers, and enough space for their luggage.
The Montreal accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 7,1 seconds and reaches a top speed of 220 km/h: super car performance for a GT in the 1970s!
The Alfa Romeo Montreal is a superb driver car and good examples are highly sought after today.
A rare car of which only 3925 examples were built.
The presented Montreal is an excellent specimen for the serious Alfa Romeo enthusiast.
