Alfa Romeo Giulietta (1977)

The Alfa Romeo 'Nuova' Giulietta was introduced in 1977 as successor of the Giulia, which at that time was fifteen years in production.

Technically, the Giulietta was based on the larger Alfetta : the wheelbase remained the same at a shorter body length . The engines - four cylinders in line - were available in 1300, 1600, 1800 and 2000 cc and also a 2.0 turbo diesel from VM . The line of cars was sharper and bolder than the Alfetta and according to the design trend of those days with an arrow shape: a low nose with large over-fitting hood and escalating rear, short rear door with spoiler edge and large dark shield bumpers instead of chromium . In the first series the bumpers were made ​​of steel, later became plastic with an integrated lower front spoiler. Because this time modern design features the Giulietta is less so than other Alfa's timeless and classic, and therefore it is not a wanted car - which promotes rarity. The Giulietta is the predecessor of the Alfa Romeo 75 . The dimensions of chassis, underbody and various body parts such as doors, correspond.
