This 1974 Alfa Romeo GTV 2000 has undergone a complete nut and bolt restoration, bringing one of Alfa’s most iconic coupes back to its original glory. Finished in Giallo Modena, Ferrari’s famous Fly Yellow, over a black interior, this car embodies the spirit of Italian design and precision engineering.

In September 2015, the car was discovered in a storage unit in Katy, Texas, where it had been sitting untouched for twenty-five years. The engine had failed, and the previous owner had intended to repair it but never did. When the current owner found it, a full restoration began from the ground up.

The car was completely disassembled so that every part could be inspected, refinished, or replaced. The body was stripped to bare metal, all corrosion was removed, and fresh metal was welded wherever needed. Repairs were carefully done on the doors, fenders, trunk, windshield frame, and floorboards. Once the metalwork was complete, the chassis was placed on a rotisserie, sealed, undercoated, and painted inside and out in bright Giallo Modena.

The suspension and braking systems were fully rebuilt. All steel components were powder coated, aluminum parts were replaced, and new Koni shocks were installed. Every bolt and bushing underneath the car was renewed. The brake calipers, rotors, and hardware were rebuilt with new seals and pads to ensure confident stopping power.

The two-liter twin-cam engine was fully rebuilt with new pistons, liners, bearings, rings, and valve components. The cylinder head was checked, the valves and guides replaced, and clearances were set precisely. Original camshafts were upgraded to 105.48 units, offering a lively, responsive performance without compromising drivability. The crankshaft was verified to be true and showed no wear, consistent with Alfa’s high-quality nitrated steel.

The five-speed manual transmission was inspected and found to be in excellent condition. Seals were replaced, and a new clutch was installed. Universal joints and rear-end seals were renewed to ensure smooth, reliable operation.

For comfort, a Vintage Air conditioning system was added, carefully integrated into a custom-built console that also provides modern phone charging ports. The hoses were routed cleanly under the fender for a neat and tidy engine bay. The original radiator and shroud were retained, complemented by an added electric fan for improved cooling during hot weather.

Every detail of this restoration reflects careful planning and craftsmanship. From the flawless paint to the precise mechanical rebuild, this GTV is as close to new as one can find today. With only 74,844 miles showing, it presents a rare opportunity to own an Alfa Romeo that blends classic charm with modern reliability.

This 1974 GTV 2000 is more than a restoration. It is a carefully revived piece of automotive art, built to be driven, admired, and enjoyed for decades to come.
