Seem like a very reasonable solution. Use the linings designed for the car from the time
the car was built! New and improved is not necessarily better!

Having seen this car at AROO events and the Forest Grove Concours, words fail me. It is one jawdropping moment after another. And I believe that George's quote from Bill Eastman that "the judges could find no fault with it" is a humble way of saying it received a 100 point score.

Thank you Roger. Don't know if you saw Keith Martin's presentation of my award. YouTube - 1960 Alfa Romeo Guilietta

Cheers,

George

George, what little chrome strip was he mentioning that is seldom ever seen? Is that the one that covers the ends of the strip covering the body seam behind the rear bumper?

Yes, big deal ha? He could have pointed out like Bill Eastman told me I had the wrong nuts on the oil filter housing (corrected now) or a few other little "nit picking" items that weren't correct (also corrected), but what the hell. I'll take the comp.

None of the judges noticed any faults. But then again, they are just judges.
