Help, please!
In the photo below it looks like the Alfa in the foreground is a Series 4(the dark green or blue one). I've been trying to find a set of those exact headlight covers for my Ser. 4! Anyone know who makes/sells them???
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Regards

Those are Carello Headlight covers and they were standard with the Duetto (66-67) and other later Spiders up until about 1983 (I believe they were no longer offered with the Series 3 cars) in non-US markets. They are available fromk many of the Alfa suppliers, including International Auto. They do require you to drill a hole or three to mount the clips.

As already mentioned you can buy them at Welcome to International Auto Parts. Also you may want to check out Restoration of 50's to 70's Alfa Spiders and click on the 'Covered headlight system' link. As you will learn, the Series 3 and 4 applications can be a bit tricky. The fit will not be perfect unless you do some minor body work. This is partly because Pininfarina changed the actual contour of the front fenders in the mid-eighties. You will have to do some headlight bucket adjustments as well along with the aforementioned hole and slot drilling.

The Alfas I drive only on nice days and keep them spotless. The Ferrari is my beater for trips to the grocery store and such.

Since your showing yours, I'll show you mine...
Here are a few shots of my 1960 Giulietta Spider Veloce. Just about complete from a 13 month restoration.
