This Alfa 33 is a perfectly legal car.
The 33 was the replacement for the legendary (or infamous, depending on your point of view) Alfa Romeo Alfasud. It wasn't really a new car, it was more of an update of the 'Sud.
The body was designed by Centro Stile Alfa Romeo. It is an angular car with a high back end. Alfa would later copy this style for the 75 (Milano in the US). Personally, I think it's a great looking car.
The engine was the flat 4 Alfa used in the Alfasud. It's a powerful engine and with regular, routine maintenance, a reliable engine. The 33 handled very well, but braking was not as good as it should have been. While the Alfasud came with 4 wheel disc brakes, the 33 inexplicably had drums in the back.
Alfa also built a 4WD version of the 33. Which did quite well in competition against 4WD Audis.
The 33 was not without its problems. There were electrical issues early on and rust was a big problem (It was not as much of a problem as it was with the Alfasud, which was legendary for its rust problems.) These issues were addressed by the time this car was built.
This car appears to be in very, very nice condition. It is an "Absolute Edition". The Absolute Edition came with a wood wheel, power steering and air-conditioning.Parts for this car are almost impossible to find in the US, but readily available in Europe.
This is a really cool car to find in the US. The asking price of $4900.00 seems quite reasonable.
