Summary
Between 1965 and 1969, Alfa Romeo built 500 examples of the Giulia Sprint GTA as the basis for racing. While the "Corsa" versions were responsible for hundreds of international victories and many championship titles, the "Stradale" version offered suitability for everyday use and unrivaled performance in this class. Driving to work during the week and taking part in hill climbs at the weekend was the motto for the GTA. This report portrays an Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA from 1966, goes into the technical concept and shows the GTAs in current and historical images.

Preview (beginning of the article)
Less car for more money? Alfa Romeo developed the GTA in the mid-sixties according to this motto together with the Autodelta racing department, creating an icon. After the appearance of the lightweight Ford Cortina Lotus, Alfa Romeo realized that the Giulia saloon was no longer competitive in the important touring car sport. It had to be sharpened up. According to the regulations, the basic vehicle had to be built 1000 times and have four full-size seats. Alfa Romeo interpreted this somewhat more freely and took the more streamlined Giulia Sprint GT coupé as the basis for the future racing touring car.
