Just 1,282 Giulietta Sprint examples were produced for the 1964 model year. A multi-year refurbishment at Morris Auto Body of Whitesburg, Georiga included repairing surface corrosion, repainting the bodywork in silver, replacing the seals and badges, repairing the door latches, and refinishing or replacing the chrome trim as necessary. Scratches and stone chips are noted on the windshield along with blemishes on the passenger glass window.
The 15″ Fergat steel wheels were sandblasted and painted during the refurbishment and they wear Vredestein Sprint Classic tires that were fitted during the refurbishment. A matching spare wheel is mounted in the trunk and the tire current has a leaking valve stem. The front brake calipers were rebuilt with stainless pistons and the rear drums are finned aluminum units.
The cockpit features gray fabric seats with blue piping as well as blue door panels, gray replacement carpets, and a black dash top. The headliner was also replaced, and additional equipment includes a glove box, a floor-mounted ashtray, roll-up windows, and a heater. Stains are noted on the driver’s seat, and the car is not equipped with seatbelts.
The two-spoke steering wheel features a chrome horn ring with an integrated high-beam center button and frames Veglia instrumentation including a 180-km/h speedometer and 7k-rpm tachometer. The five-digit odometer shows 27k kilometers (~17k miles), approximately 5k of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 1,290cc twin-cam inline-four was rebuilt by The Roadspeed Garage of Cleveland, Georgia during the refurbishment and is fitted with a Solex carburetor. The fuel tank was also overhauled during the refurbishment. A section of rust is noted under the battery tray.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a rebuilt five-speed manual synchro-mesh transmission. Additional photos of the underside are provided in the image gallery.

The car is registered in Georgia using chassis no. 384840.
