Derived from the Giulietta Sprint Veloce, the Sprint Speciale received the 1.3L twin-cam four-cylinder engine aspirated by two twin-barrel carburetors, and its bodywork designed by Franco Scaglione, for Bertone, which had an extremely low Cd, giving the car a top speed close to 200 km/h, a remarkable performance given its displacement. The production of the Giulietta SS was limited to 1,366 units.
This stunning automobile entered the collection of our businessman in 2017. Always eager to own automobiles in excellent condition and ready to run on the departmental roads around his Normandie property, he decided to send it for comprehensive restoration to Auto Normandie in Trouville. The car was completely dismantled there, piece by piece, for a comprehensive repair of the bodywork and the paint. The chassis was treated and repainted there, the mechanicals were redone, as were the engine and gearbox. It is painted in a very beautiful petrol blue, the interior covered in ecru fabric with body color piping, as well as the carpet, all completely redone superbly. This SS performed well when tested on the drives of the seller's huge property.
