Ronal "A1", probably 7 X 15". IMHO, the ultimate wheel for all transaxle alfas (except for the ES30)!! Was available with 4 X 98 or 5 X 98mm.

Ready for winter.

She's got her top on and is ready for the winter rain. Dosn't leak so far, bit of air flow on the driver's side window, back window has a break in the defrosting wire.

Looks very sharp. Sometimes I wish i had a hardtop instead of putting my spider away for the winter... Where was that shot taken? The mini castle/home behind is very cool looking... It gives new meaning to the old phrase, "a man's home is his castle"

Green Dragon,

In 1985 I bought a new Graduate. I drove it through 2 Minnesota winters as my only car means of transportation...couldn't afford no stink'n hardtop.

BTW, brownie, those rear window broken heater wires can be fixed.

Thanks, the "castle" was imported piece by piece to Richmond by a guy called VanDerzam, he also was a Premier of B.C. It has been sold a couple of times and is not being kept up, i think the new owners want to put a hotel on the site.

RedSpider, hardtops are okay, no leaking and I drive it year round.

thanks Msiert, I like her looks too.

Haven't done more than a few hundred miles yet, but it sure is fun.

Thanks for looking.

Great find! You can honestly say that it was "driven by a little old lady."

New owner, might as well add my Spider here.

I think even all us Alfa freaks can appreciate a 914-6 Justin. I'd love to see more pics.

You may be right, but I acquired it many years ago. Nice car!

I know we all have different tastes, but that thing took ugly to new heights. The 944 is not bad but the dinosaur cars Porsche are still pushing on the market may be good cars, but are they unable to design something from this century?
