Hello everyone!
If all goes well this will be my first post about my first Alfa.
She is a 1988 graduate with 47,000 miles and is in pretty good shape. I
purchased her in july and only now am I begining to realize what I got myself
into.

Hello GraniteAlfa, welcome to the AlfaBB and the Alfa virus Don't worry about what you got yourself into, it's like a beautiful talented mistress, the thrill you get when these babies are running correctly is difficult to beat. (at least that's what I heard about mistresses ) I like how you have secreted her away for the winter

Beautiful car! Is that an aircraft museum behind it? Do the planes fly or are they display only?

I'm sure the red one in the foreground can really fly

Yes, that's the official Italian Air Force museum. It is located at Vigna di Valle on the Bracciano Lake, near Rome. During 2006, it has also been the place for a meeting... it was great (check pictures below)!
Preserved aircrafts are usually in very good conditions but only few of them can still fly in their actual status. Probably after a specific technical restoration they could take off again...

You're right, that's a T6 "Texan" but it's not a replica! The orange camouflage is the original color that Italian Air Force uses for a lot of its trainers.

There's an Italian marked P-51D on the left of the last picture. Did the US government sell them to Italy following WWII?? Pretty neat...
