This 1967 Alfa Romeo Duetto 1600 Spider, from the early first

　　series of this long-running model, is offered by a selling dealer

　　that specializes in classic European cars and motorcycles. The

　　seller notes the car has benefitted from light restoration

　　services, and all elements of the car present very well in the

　　photos. The selling dealer states the mileage is believed to be

　　accurate.The Alfa Romeo Spider, introduced in 1966 to replace the

　　automaker's Giulia Spider, would be offered in three subsequent

　　series until 1994, getting design and powertrain updates along the

　　way. Pininfarina designed the Spider and assembled it for Alfa for

　　the model's entire run. The sloping "boat tail" design was used

　　only on the first series cars through 1969 and sets it apart from

　　the later versions. Notably, the first-series Alfa Spider was known

　　as the "Duetto," a winning name submitted for a contest the

　　automaker held. The winner got the new sports car, but Alfa Romeo

　　found it could not use the name, as a snack maker had already

　　trademarked it. So, the roadster was named Spider 1600 for the

　　1.6-liter engine in this first series. The Spider achieved fame in

　　the iconic 1967 movie, "The Graduate," and the car became so

　　identifiable with that film that Alfa Romeo issued a lower-priced

　　version of the Spider called Graduate in the 1980s. A twin-cam

　　four-cylinder engine, five-speed manual transmission, and

　　four-wheel disc brakes made the Spider more advanced than most of

　　its British competitors, and the Alfa outlasted all of them on the

　　market.
