The Timeless Charm of the Alfa Romeo GT Junior
The iconic Alfa Romeo Bertone coupés from the “105-Series” have become a firm favorite on the international classic car market, and it’s easy to see why.
Cars just aren’t allowed to look this good anymore, as none of these Alfa’s delightful curves were traced with safety and aerodynamics in mind. The Giulia GT was introduced in 1963 and was an instant hit for the Milanese firm, which had just inaugurated its new Arese production facility on the outskirts of Milan.
the Giulia GT wasn’t for everyone, and that’s why the GT Junior came into play
The new model was based on the newly-launched Giulia saloon but with a 16 cm shorter wheelbase. Its lines were penned by a talented twenty-something by the name of Giorgetto Giugiaro, who produced a masterful reinterpretation of the original styling theme he previously introduced on the 1960 2000 Sprint. No matter how hard you try, you won’t find a bad angle in it: the Alfa Romeo Giulia GT is a true design masterpiece.
