Alfa Romeo Junior 1600
The Alfa Romeo GT 1600 Junior was introduced in 1972 to bridge the gap between the GT 1300 Junior and the larger-engined 2000 GTV. The GT 1300 Junior was discontinued in the British right-hand drive market, but in many other countries, the two models were available as a series. The engine was largely the same as that of the Giulia Sprint GTV, which had been discontinued four years earlier, and shared the same engine type number. The final drive ratio was once again a standard 9/41 on all 105-series coupes with the 1290 cc and 1570 cc engines. From 1974, the GT 1300 Junior and GT 1600 Junior were rationalized into a common model range with the 2000 GTV and were renamed 1.3 GT Junior and 1.6 GT Junior, sharing most interior and exterior features with the larger-engined car. The only external differences were the absence of bumper-over-riders, the absence of green snake badges on the C-pillar, small taillight clusters like those of the pre-'74 Juniors, and the GT 1300 Junior or GT 1600 Junior emblem on the trunk.

Apart from engine displacement, the only mechanical differences were smaller front brakes, as the Juniors had not adopted the larger units fitted to the 1750 GTV and 2000 GTV from 1968.
The Alfa Romeo presented here is a perfect version of the 1.6 Junior. It is in the color Faggio, which is a red-brown color and is complemented with a cognac artificial leather interior. The interior still looks perfect. Furthermore, the 14" alloy 6-spoke wheels are mounted underneath. It is an original car that has only been maintained by good companies. There are many invoices for this in the file. A beautiful GT from Alfa for the enthusiast of the GT or GTV model.
