It was basically a lightened and more powerful version of the Giulia GT production car. Strong preparation by Autodelta helped the car eventually win two European touring car championships.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The GTA was named after the process of lightening the body, also known as <i>alleggerita<\/i> in Italian. Most of the weight savings came from a new aluminum outer body that was bonded and riveted to a standard steel shell. The side windows and rear window were also replaced with plexi-glass. Futhermore, many components used exotic materials like magnesium in the wheels and other castings. This diet brought the weight down from 2200 to 1630 lbs.<\/p>\n<p>Under the hood was a new twin spark cylinder head and 45 mm carburetors. This was initially prepared in 1.6-liter form and produced close to 170 hp. A short-stroke variant of this engine was used in the GTA 1300 Junior to compete with the Mini Cooper S. It used a 1.3-liter engine that could produce 163 hp with Autodelta\u2019s special fuel injection. Some road-going stradale versions of the Junior were made, but without many of the exceptional weight saving features.<\/p>\n<p>GTAs were first produced by Autodelta in 1965 under the experienced direction of Carlo Chiti. The car was launched at the Amsterdam Motor Show, and later went on to win a successful streak of touring car races.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n                <a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1965_AlfaRomeo_GiuliaGTA1.jpg' class='tipi-lightbox'>\r\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1965_AlfaRomeo_GiuliaGTA1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"1965\u21921969 Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1965_AlfaRomeo_GiuliaGTA1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1965_AlfaRomeo_GiuliaGTA1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1965_AlfaRomeo_GiuliaGTA1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1965_AlfaRomeo_GiuliaGTA1-770x514.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1965_AlfaRomeo_GiuliaGTA1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1965_AlfaRomeo_GiuliaGTA1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/1965_AlfaRomeo_GiuliaGTA1-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n            <\/div><\/figure>\n<div class=\"copy-paste-block\">\n<div class=\"copy-paste-block\">\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/1965-alfa-romeo-giulia-gta-gallery\/\">1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA Gallery<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>See full <a href=\"http:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/1965-alfa-romeo-giulia-gta-gallery\/\">1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA Gallery<\/a> Here<\/p>\n<h3>In Detail<\/h3>\n<table class=\"cardetails\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"label\" align=\"left\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"30%\"><\/td>\n<td class=\"value\" align=\"right\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"70%\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"label\" align=\"left\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"30%\">type<\/td>\n<td class=\"value\" align=\"right\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"70%\">Racing Car<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"label\" align=\"left\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"30%\">production years<\/td>\n<td class=\"value\" align=\"right\" valign=\"bottom\" width=\"70%\">1965 &#8211;
