Vehicle Description:1962 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider series 101 03, VIN Number: AR171830

SCCA Chassis # 82-010 with the original Central Division SCCA log book dated 4-14-71 (10th car in CenDiv to get a log book!) Great History!!

HISTORY: Raced since 60s, probably since new by the first owner, "Fast Eddy" Wachs who had the car prepared by Horst Kwech and Ron Neal at AUSCA, "Fast Eddy" had good success with the car. He sold the car in 1965 to Dick Jenkins , among his many successes this was his Runoffs car at Riverside in 1968 and Daytona in 1969, where he had the pole position the race and led all but the last lap. At the June Sprints, at Road America, his was pole car at least twice. The car was also maintained for him by AUSCA. He successfully raced the car in the Central Division SCCA, until it was sold to Trevor and Tom Bailey in 1971, who subsequently sold it to Don Smith in 1973 who sold it to Jim Arthurs in 1974. Jim credits all of the updated (at the time) beautiful fabrication including the roll cage, custom headers, motor mounts, fuel cell mounts and MSD console to Ron Rizor his friend in Ann Arbor who is obviously a true craftsman. The fender flares came from Dave Rugh. Jim raced the car through 1991, when it was purchased by Curtis Woods who put the car into storage. The car has a total of 5 log books, 3 SCCA Log Books, dating back to 1971 when that Region first started requiring them, and one log book each originating from the Midwest Counsel, and WHRRI . I have the original Illinois title which has been signed over three times since it was originally registered, and the other transfers made in the back of the SCCA log books.

Chassis:
The chassis while rust free, and square was raced for a lot of years. Last raced in 1991 and properly stored, this car sat for 15 years in an attached home garage. This was a seriously prepared F and E Production National level car when parked, and is still beautiful. I have stripped and refinished the car's underside & refurbished the suspension and driveline. The cage is gorgeous and safe for vintage, but no longer SCCA legal, although it would not take a lot to make it so. Very nicely fabricated, pro quality welded, and gusseted cage with under dash loop. Some of the cars equipment is listed below:

Chassis:Light weight Rugh fiberglass Front & Rear fenders. A lot, if not all of the original steel fender has been removed under the flares.Full front removable air dam, Competition molded windscreen, Lightened hood & trunk lid, Vintage 8000 rpm Veloce tach and oil pressure gauges, SW mechanical Oil & Water temp gauges. Master cut-off switch, Ignition & Fuel pump switches in a fabricated panel, 8 gallon Fuel Cell with properly fabricated can & support, with new foam, and Aeroquip lines to pump & engine.
