1962 Alfa Romeo 106-Series 2600

This 1962 Alfa Romeo 2600 Spider is said to have remained with its previous owner for over 40 years before being purchased by its current owner four years ago. Finished in red over black leather upholstery, the car is powered by a 2.6-liter DOHC inline-six that breathes through triple Solex carburetors and is mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Additional features include servo-assisted brakes with front discs, coil-spring suspension, silver-painted steel wheels, and a body-color hardtop. This Tipo 106 Spider is now offered in Arizona by the seller on behalf of its owner with model-related literature and a clean Montana title in the name of the owner’s LLC listing it as a 1964 model. The 2600 platform was introduced as Alfa Romeo’s flagship range in 1962 and was offered as a sedan, coupe, or convertible, the latter of which wore coachwork from Touring of Milan. Finished in red, this example is said to have received a repaint under previous ownership and is equipped with a color-matched hardtop with a wraparound rear window. Additional features include integrated driving lights flanking horizontal grille openings, a low-profile hood scoop, a driver-side mirror, and stepped taillights. A chip in the finish is present over the right driving light. Silver-painted steel wheels wear bright hubcaps and are wrapped in 165R400 Michelin X tires, as is a spare housed in the trunk. Vacuum-assisted brakes incorporate discs up front and finned aluminum drums at the rear. The cabin is trimmed in black leather over low-backed front bucket seats and a rear bench, with color-matched upholstery over the door panels and dash. Additional features include color-keyed carpeting covered by black and silver Coco Mats up front as well as front lap belts, roll-up windows, a dash-mounted rearview mirror, and a lockable glovebox. The three-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of Veglia instrumentation including a 150-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and gauges monitoring coolant temperature, oil temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 93k miles, approximately 300 of which have been added under current ownership. The 2.6-liter inline-six incorporates an aluminum block and cylinder head, seven main bearings, dual overhead camshafts, a finned sump, and triple dual-throat Solex carburetors. Service under current ownership approximately 200 miles ago reportedly included an upper-end overhaul and rebuilds of the carburetors. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an all-synchromesh five-speed manual transmission, and the clutch is said to have been replaced under current ownership approximately 200 miles ago. Independent front suspension incorporates unequal-length A-arms and an anti-roll bar, while the solid-axle rear features triangular thrust rods and radius rods. Coil springs and telescopic shock absorbers are utilized all around. Corrosion is visible on the exahust components and various underside surfaces.
