The word nuova means new in Italian. That is the very last version of the Giulia sedan body that was introduced with type 105 during 1962. The Nuova label was attached with the re-styled nose on this car around 1977, long after Alfa stopped marketing the type 105 anywhere they thought they could sell type 115 and 116, called Alfetta and Milano to in America. They never sold 1300cc type 105 cars here, for good reason. Does it have column shift? If so it is a 5 on the tree.

I guessed right at a 1300 but never heard of a Nuova.
Geez that car is pretty, same reason I bought the Triumph
I heard an Alfa 147 GTA ( 3.2 V6) pulling into the Canadian Tire this afternoon. I talked to the owner he bought and imported it the first month after 15 years was up. Transport cost him $2400 on a RoRo, and when it arrived he picked it up from the yard on Annacis Island (think a ginormous valet parking lot full of cars fresh off the boat) Sorry no pictures as I generally travel with no phone.
Got followed for a short distance by a Thunderbird, then he tirne left.
Not sure the year. It was long and low. The headlites were wider than my whole FiST.
Not real sure about this, here goes.
Was at a restaurant for lunch....

Doyle said we'd need one.
Didn't bother with a picture but saw a running driving 1st Gen intrepid. Not a fan of those but did a double take just seeing one still on the roads

In reply to MazdaFace :
Haven't thought about the Intrepid in years.
Makes me laugh because I remember my mom going on a mini-rant about what a stupid name for a car that was. At the time I wondered if she had a firm grasp on what the word "intrepid" actually meant (it's mostly positive - I think), but in any case it is not a word that just rolls off the tongue in pleasing fashion.
Saw a 1937 Hudson Terraplane today
Mercury Bobcat, seen in Lowell, MA today.
spotted today at home Depot
Ariel Atom (or clone) headed north on I675 near Dayton, OH this afternoon. Sadly, I was going south, so no pics. Then I spotted The Great Pumpkin later in the day. First time I've seen either of these on the road.

I'm actually disappointed there's no pic. I can't remember the last time I saw one of those anywhere.
A friend bought a Subaru Domingo recently. What a cool little van. My kiddos loved it, the size made them feel at home.
Only had time to ask if it was his personal car before I started blocking traffic. But it is his personal car that he uses to deliver mail in my parent's neighborhood.
When stopping for gas this morning, there were two identical bright yellow MGBs in the parking lot. I just managed to pull out my phone and snap two very blurry pictures as they were leaving.
Sure those are B's? Look a lot like Midgets to me. But even if are Spridget then still unicorn, maybe even more so as those are RWA Spridgets.
I have a hard time calling anything as common as a MG Midget a unicorn, they made many thousands of them, but seeing two in the same non standard shade of yellow at the same time is definitely worth commenting and photographing, even if blurry! Round Wheel Arch cars are 1972 & 73 only, so close to unicorn, and always MG, not Sprite.
ZR-1. Only ever saw one other and that was in 1991.
Car had Nelson Ledges stickers on it, too.
No pic because it happened too fast and I was driving with my kids in the car.
Berkeleying Enzo. Wife says “what kind of car is that?” Berkeleying Enzo is what it was.
The good news: Saw a Huracan on the way home. The bad news: Some fool painted it flat black.
