Colin / Phil thanks for your advice and feedback today...I am slowly warming to this color and can understand that I should keep it original..

what about then engine though I was thinking of going 2000 as opposed to 1750....from originality perspective its not good but there really isn't much difference visually apart from the mechanical capacity which you cannot see, between the two engines...you could sell it as a 1750...majiority would not know the difference...!

Do you see the benefit of going to the 2000.....? I was told from an engineering colleague whom has been working and racing Alfa for 40+ years that the 2000 provides more torque and would be better suited as a daily drive......what do you think?

The vehicle I am working on has been under a blanket in a workshop for a good part of 20years....it is straight as an arrow with minimal rust spots....I doubt you would know this vehicle...prior to this my father owned it for a period of time and he cant even remember how long!!!
