Out back the car wears a sculpted Giulia GTAm-style bumper with a carbon fiber diffuser and quad tailpipes, along with modern LED graphics reworking the Bertone taillights.

No spoiler, because the GT never needed one.

That signature rear glass and the clean surfacing across the hatch do the heavy lifting on their own, and adding a wing would have been an insult to the man who drew it.

I didn't get a chance to work on the interior, though such a build would need a re-upholstered cabin using high quality materials like wood, aluminum, and leather.

The conversion would preferably maintain an analogue character, although a discreet aftermarket infotainment solution could be added into the mix.

Mechanical Upgrades

Under the hood of the GT restomod remains the iconic naturally-aspirated 3.2-liter Busso V6.

Stock, the engine made 237 hp (177 kW / 240 PS), and it clears 300 hp without much drama once you start throwing aftermarket tuning at it.

A proper build might rebore the block with forged pistons, stretch displacement to 3.7 liters, swap in wilder camshafts, and add Ferrari-derived throttle bodies.

A supercharger would be one step past sensible, so we leave it alone.

The V6 GT shares its six-speed manual and front-wheel-drive layout with the 147 GTA and 156 GTA, which means the dynamics have room to grow.

A limited-slip differential would earn its keep, alongside coilovers, wider tracks, and those larger brakes.
