world cars: Alfa Romeo Spider ' Duetto' by ric gustafson
In 1966 at the Turin Motor Show an Alfa Romeo car was introduced. The Spider Duetto had a rounded boat tail style. The last version of this vehicle was in 1993. The car was noted for it's hood mechanism that could be raised or lowered with one hand. The round tail style was changed to a square tail. It had a four cylinder twin cam engine and had a five speed transmission. Drivers enjoyed the crisp handling and the fastness of the car.
In the 60's film the Graduate, Dustin Hoffman drives a red Spider Duetto.
