Yes, the wheels came from Alfaholics in the titanium finish.
I have been busy and have not had a chance to put the spring pans on yet, but they should be on in the next day or two, and I will post pic.
The Half Moon Bay car was French Blue not red and I sold it... I stumbled across a red 69 here locally that was a better restoration candidate, so I bought it and sold the blue car... and then I bought the step nose.

Yes , we should meet up sometime, I live less than 2 miles from Laguna and if you are in the area you are welcome to stop by and laugh at all my projects.

Laugh at your projects? Of my four Alfas, one is stripped for restoration, the second is being torn down for rebuild into a vintage racer, the third sports a blown engine, and the fourth, finally, runs, but desperately needs some good bumpers, non-leaky top, and lots of bodywork! I could NOT laugh at you even if I had wanted to; you're WAY ahead of me!

Will need to get a set of those Alfaholics wheels for my racer; hopefully they're 6-inchers? I'll check on their website.

They are 7 incher's, the web site only shows the 6's in the silver color, but you can send them an email and ask if they have or can get the 6 incher's in titanium... Max is always helpful.

This is funny. Somewhow I missed this thread but about a week ago, I took the picture of your car off of Alfoholics website and put it on my computer for wall paper!

I love that car - perfect balance. nice work.

Hey Thom... I will keep an eye out for your GTV, I have seen a few around, but no yellow ones yet.

AlfaGiulia65, thats funny you saw the car on the Alfaholics site, Max just put it on there. Thanks for the compliments, it is a fun project... I currently doing a tranny swap on it, the old one was tired. I am trying to decide wether I am going to freshen up the 1750 thats in it or put in a 2L that I have sitting in my shop.

I seemed to miss this post too!
Nice job.
By any chance was this the womans Alfa who worked as a SCCA worker for years and lived up over the river?
Any photos of under the hood and a inside shot?
Looks Good!!!!
Happy Holidays

No this wasn't her car... I remember that car though, I wonder what happened to her/it? This car came from the bay area and then Canada before that. Here are two more pics, although I need to get a few more current ones. Pretty much the same, but has Samco hoses on it now and a diff shift knob.

This was some years ago.
Just a bump for up dates on your nice Alfa.
Evere go to the car night in the Valley there and see a Blu 74 Vett?
Do you know him? Stuart is his name.. Bug his A** and tell him A Alfa guy said Hi!

**wctouring#7** · #25 (**permalink**) 02-17-2008, 11:28 PM

I sold the car last year... It is now for sale on Craigslist, I put a link down in the for sale section. Stuart and the 74 vette does not ring a bell, but now that you mentioned it, I will keep and eye out for him. Thursday night's car gathering at Baja Cantina starts and ends with the time change. Looking forward to it starting up again.
