Most Wanted: 10 Vehicles Which Need A Restomod

Alfa Romeo Montreal

Production years: 1970-1977

Cars don’t come much prettier than the Alfa Romeo Montreal. One look at this car’s sleek, Miura-esque body, and you know that it’s something special. It could be a complete pig to drive, and you’d still want in your driveway. Designed by Bertone, who also put out the astonishingly good-looking Lamborghini Countach, it is something out of this world. Even though its V8 was small at just 2.6 liters, it was pretty mighty. The Montreal flew to a top speed of 137 mph with acceleration that’s still pretty decent, at 7.4 seconds to 60 mph.

All that being said though, it could still do with…more. For example, if you fancied it, you could expand the engine’s capacity up to a nice round three liters without too much trouble on your part, while lightening work could be handled with carbon fiber or aluminum. They’re not cheap in any way, which is to be expected with a production cohort as low as 4000. This won’t be a cheap project. You’re going to need cash, materials, and a high level of expertise. If you can handle it though, you’ll have the prettiest restomod around, at least until some madman takes a wrench to a Miura.
