The Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV was designed to be fast. In fact, the “V” in the GTV name is for the word “veloce” which is the Italian word for fast. If you are relatively new to the vintage car market, the Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV is a wonderful project car. If you are on the fence about this classic 1960s model is ideal for your garage, there are some useful websites that can help you make up your mind if this Italian beauty is right for you.

One of the most useful websites is a blog called 1969 Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV MK 1. This blog is about one man’s journey to restore his 1969 Alfa Romeo. The helpful blog includes updates on the project including pictures of the process. The blogger includes sources and references so you can find the parts you need at the best prices. Along with the plenty of learning you will do while reading this blog, you will also be able to interact with the blogger who welcomes feedback and ideas.
