1971 Alfa Romeo Spider

The 1971 Alfa Romeo Spider represents a highly significant "transitional" year for the iconic Italian roadster. It captures the mechanical pinnacle of the early generation combined with modernized, sharp exterior styling.
Kamm-Tail Design: 1971 marks the first full production year of the Series 2 "Cam-Tail" or "Kamm-Tail" body style. This replaced the rounded "boat-tail" shape of the 1960s Duetto. It sharply cut off the rear to optimize aerodynamics and expand luggage space.
The "Sweet Spot" 1750 Engine: For North American models, 1971 was the final year to feature the revered 1,779cc twin-cam inline-four engine. Enthusiasts highly seek this engine. It revs more freely and delivers a livelier driving character than the heavier 2.0L engine that replaced it late in the year.
SPICA Fuel Injection: North American market models arrived with a SPICA mechanical fuel injection system. This system delivers 116 horsepower. European models, such as the 1300 Junior, continued to rely on traditional carburetors. Aesthetic Anchors: These early Series 2 cars retained classic chrome bumpers and deep-set driver instruments. This distinguishes them from later, rubber-bumper models from the late 1970s and 1980s.
