Body style difference and chassis dimensions.
Deleting the 164 and including the Alfetta sedan there are at least two
wheelbases, possibly three in the above list. The GTVs is shorter than the
sedan, as is the Giulietta, shorter by the same amount? I would only guess
so. Wheelbase for the 75?
The mysterious Giulietta may have the platform of the GTV with a family size
body. It also hit the market with smaller dia wheels.

Thats what I thought until I saw an auto 75, for sale in Perth right now.
