Eastern Shore Classic Cars is excited to present the hugely
popular, Bertone designed, Alfa Romeo 2000 GT Veloce (also known as
2000 GTV). The 2000 series replaced 1750 series in 1971.
Improvements at the time included engine displacement increased to
1962 cc with a change of bore and stroke to 84 mm � 88.5 mm. The
engine produced 132 PS (97 kW; 130 hp) at 5500 rpm. This example
replicates the European version which did not have Fuel injection.
It is fitted is fitted with 2 Weber 45 DCOE carburetors recently
cleaned, with new jets installed. In 1971 the interior trim was
also changed, with the most notable differences being the
introduction of a separate instrument cluster, instead of the
gauges installed in the dash panel in earlier cars. Externally the
2000 GTV is most easily distinguished by the following features:
Grille with horizontal chrome bars, featuring protruding blocks
forming the familiar Alfa shield in outline. The larger rear light
clusters first fitted to United States market 1750 GTV's were
standard for all markets on the 2000 GTV. USA market rear turn
signals were red instead of yellow on non-USA models. The side
marker lamps were larger and did not have a turn signal flash
feature. The owner states that this fine example includes the
