When you pulled the Giulia and the Duetto out of the garage I had goosebumps, the sound of the Alfa tween cam is so unique, soul of Alfaromeo. Thank you for the excellent videos you make it's real pleasure watch them.

Fabulous, I'm 46 now and I owned a white Duetto when I was 23 here in the UK, it followed a Giulia Super 1600...got quite emotional watching this, brought back many good memories. Bravo!

Great seeing someone who isn’t grey-haired restoring a classic! I’m an MGB tragic in my 20’s, and restored one as a first car... I think Jethro is the only other guy my age I’ve seen properly care for a classic like that, let alone driving one! Love your work, mate! 👍🏻👍🏻

To me this is the most beautiful version of all Alfa Romeo duetto spyder made over the years. Fun fact: in Italy we call it "osso di seppia" that means "cuttlefish bone" because of the shape of is back. Thanks for the video and to keep alive and kicking these beauties!

My Duet Spider Veloce had a hard top and it was noisy. The rubber padding squeaked and the top thumped when the car rode the bumps. The top eventually ended up on my garage wall beside the snow board--both were consigned to being seasonal gear. I've been following this rebuild and your Alfa is nice indeed. I am a fan of white roadsters and performance cars because of their lines and because of visibility. This is indeed a good day.
@JethroBronner

Yeah I can’t imagine using this hard top very much, but I’ll try my best to make it as usable as possible.
