A shot of my baby
I'm almost embarrassed to post a pic of my baby amongst this distinguished company. Bear in mind that she's a work in progress. You all have some amazing examples of Alfas.
She's an '84 Veloce:
The 105 manifold was Jet Hot coated. Suspension is IAP performance springs and Koni reds (2 twists firmer in front) (still waiting for rear bar, Ereminas brace goes on later this week) Every poly bushing I coud get my hands on in the suspension. Running at 3 degrees negative camber on Toyo T1R 205/50/16s mounted on Serpent Autosport Type 3s.
Feel free to comment or criticize or question. Thanks for looking.

If our 69 GTV looked half as good....
Might want to check those brake hoses though. They look old.

Papajam,
thanks. and thanks for the catch on the brake hoses. I have been putting it off until I can redo the whole brake system but considering your cautionary note, I will deal with them by next week.
The interior is slow becasue it's blue and I haven't found a source for blue Alfa upholstery. Everything seems to be red, black, or tan. Any ideas?
Thanks again

Blue upholstery is something a good local shop can make. There's more than one here in the OC. As mentioned in other threads, World Upholstery is a good source for ready to recover upholstery, they may make "blue" upholstery on a special order basis The blue dashcap is not out there. You can prep the black one available and paint with SEM. It will be tough to match the the rest of the dash if it's a factory blue. The best bet would be to cap a dash out of the car, refinish entire dash, then install, lots of work. Maybe you can find a good complete dash?

Hi Alfisti!That's my 1978 GTV.She has covered 150.000 km (50.000 of them after a complete engine and gearbox restoration).Mechanically the bialbero is bulletproof,bodily she is in pretty good conditions (no rust, only a respray 9 years ago in her original grigio chiaro metallizato).I am using her as a second (should i say third) car just for fun.I love her dramatic angles and her 70's iconic look.After all -with the exception of ES30 which is not a mass production car- she's the last real Alfa coupe (anything from the Fiat era doesn't count).
