Post a pic of your alfa!

[AlfistiSA]

Hi my name is Greig & I'm an Alfaholic..........

Yup, got the disease bad, also have the itch syndrome & mine only gets relief when I buy another Alfa.

As to cptn WOW's wheels, I've got the same set, they are either original Cromadora's or a South African knock-off called Tiger Wheel Crusaders. My friend Ian's are done in fine silver, with the spoke edges & outside rim in polished aluminium, I plan to do mine in very light charcoal grey, with polished spoke edges & a polished outer rim.

These are the only set of after market rims I have for Alfa's & are destined for my '69 GT 1300 J, all my other cars run on original steel rims & hubcaps.

The sunroof is an after-market item, made by Webasto. It was discussed a few years ago on this site - check the GT/GTV archives.

I'd guess that your 1750 was exported to Oz from South Africa, there are lots of GTV's here with Webasto sun roofs.

With regard to comments - to each his own & also to each his opinion, Richard's comments & apology are noted, so let's move on.

Richard - That's a lovely Touring Spider, white really does suit the lines of those cars.

Ciao

And there is NOTHING wrong with that. So, please continue to enjoy your lovely stock Touring Spider, which I know you love. I will continue to drive and love my more modern (and modified) '88 Milano (75) 3.0L Verde, my slightly modified '82 Spider and my '84 GTV6 Maratona, while others will do the same with their own wonderful Alfas - RWD, FWD, AWD, 4, 6 or 8 cylinder, boxer, in-line or V engined...there's room for everyone here.

thats a badass looking GTV6. it seems like it should have the abilty to travel through time or something.

Would it be a bad idea to put 14" GTA replicas on my 1750 (see prior page)? I remember hearing somewhere that the GTA's were for the GTV 2000's, not the 1750's. Is that true?

Nice 1750.

I am biased but the best wheels to use are the GTA Campagnolos, the Montreal Campagnolos or the Cromodora Daytona see pics. Also the rare Borrani alloy is interesting. I confine myself to wheels that were available in period. All of the above were available circa 1970. I believe that the Montreal type Campagnolo rim was actually an optional 1750 wheel before the Montreal was built.

The Montreal rims are a bit hard to get but there is always the 5 1/2 inch version which is more freely available and still looks good.

See pics. I am in Perth if you want to see any close up.

Andrew
