Classic Alfa Romeo Spider.Alfa continued producing the spider from the 60s right through into the 1980s. Here is an example of a late-ish kamm-tailed Spider with the bodykit that Alfa decided would improve the styling. I think the jury is still out regarding the bodykit - but in the 1980s the 2 seater convertible market was a very niche place to be and Alfa saw little need to invest in a major re-work of the Spider model. That was til the MX5 came along and wakened up the 2 seater sports car market for the masses.
Spider on display at Tatton Park, Cheshire.If you have any more info or restoration stories about this particular Spider, or Spiders in general, I'd really like to feature it on oldclassiccar.
I took all these photos at the classic & vintage show held at Tatton Park, in June 2005. The Alfa Romeo shown above was one of several hundred vehicles held in the grounds of this National Trust property. |

Some vehicles appear at a number of local shows throughout the season, so I've picked my favourite 95 photos from this particular old-car gathering. The other 94 pictures can be found on the main Tatton Park car show page. If I missed your car out, then I apologise! If the Spider featured here is yours then I hope you're pleased to see it featured here. If there were other Alfa Romeos at the show which I've included in this image gallery, the links will be further down this page.
