The seller offers for sale a 1963 Alfa Romeo 2600 Spider, a classic Italian cabriolet powered by a 2.6-litre inline-six engine mated to a manual transmission. According to the seller, the car underwent a technical restoration in 2015.
The vehicle’s condition is generally solid. Mechanically, it is described as good.
The paintwork is noted as largely smooth and tidy, but with some minor imperfections around the body. The finish shows signs of use and age-appropriate wear. The vehicle has had earlier body damage which was repaired, though the quality of the chassis work varies.
These cosmetic aspects may require attention for a collector-standard presentation.
Inside, the interior is described as clean and well-maintained, with minimal wear and only minor potential needs for repair or part replacement.
The Alfa Romeo 2600 Spider was the last Alfa to use a straight-six engine, representing a significant point in the brand’s development. Produced between 1962 and 1968, the 2600 was available in three primary body styles—Berlina, Sprint, and Spider—with the Spider designed by Carrozzeria Touring. The Spider combined classic Italian elegance with open-air motoring, offering a refined and spacious alternative to smaller sports cars of the era. Its 2.6L twin-cam engine produced 145 horsepower, delivering smooth performance and effortless cruising, especially by 1960s standards.
While not as agile as its four-cylinder siblings, the 2600 Spider was a comfortable and stylish grand tourer, equipped with twin carburettors and 5-speed transmission as standard. Fewer than 2,300 examples of the Touring-bodied Spider were built, making it a rare and desirable classic among Alfa enthusiasts today. The model was also known for its participation in international rallies and road tours, further cementing its reputation for reliability and long-distance capability.
This particular example offers a usable and largely preserved version of the 2600 Spider, with some past repairs noted but otherwise technically solid and ready for enjoyment.
