Okay, here's something you don't see every day:
And there's a Spider on the other side of the garage from the 356. :-)

Yep, that's the Fisher homestead! Kim's new-to-us '89 Milano/75 sharing driveway space with my 115 Berlina. It's really something to drive the two Alfa sedans back to back, to get a sense of history, tradition, and evolution between them.
The Berlina has been in daily use lately as we get the Milano settled in; we just replaced the cracked overflow tank, and are waiting for a new thermostat (why are Milano thermostats so spendy compared to other Alfa t-stats?). With luck that'll take care of the cooling system, and Kim can get back to driving HER Alfa sedan instead of driving MINE. :-)

1967 Duetto
My wife's Duetto grew a roll bar and a matching tonneau cover last week. She likes Mercedes colors (silver and blue) on her Italian cars, but I must admit it is not a bad color combination. She cut and stitched the interior, from seats to door panels, in dark blue. Next on her list is a matching dashboard. next on my list is getting the turn signals working again.
The license plate is by Photoshop. Sorry.

I wish I could but I'm living at the 3rd floor and that could be a problem! 
Those coaches are there only for storage, they're not mine... the garage is on loan!

Back on the road!
Thought I'd post a couple of quick photos of my Duetto before driving off to work (in the Duetto, of course! After all, I restored it to be a driver!). More detailed posts will follow in the appropriate forum showing the restoration process when I have a little more time- in the meantime, hope you enjoy!
