Kai,

Sorry about loosing your previous post showing all of your Alfas. I was replying to it when the server went down last night. I was like what the heck just happen. Anyway very nice GTV! What’s a mater with the other one? I believe you mentioned you were going to part it out.

Hmmm yummy...
oops.. sorry... NICE...

67GTV - Did you post an ad on Alfaclassifieds.com??

Simon,

Those I have posted, I have tried to resize them lower. Although the shot above was merely trimmed.

I bought my red '67 GTV a year ago, and before I met my wife I might add. I paid too much for a 99% complete, poor running GTV. The only rust areas are left of the clutch pedal and the rocker panels. I say only lightly because the rockers are pretty bad.

My purchase decisions and free time is are longer mine alone, thankfully I might add. I talked my wife into allowing me to buy the white GTV by agreeing to sell my Spider and red GTV. I was undecided whether to part it out or try to sell it to someone as a whole project. However, some friends came over to look it. One of them is interested in assembling a GTA streed rod replica. He only needs a body. So I may start stripping parts, saving treasures and selling excess parts. The same 1600 block was used in GTA's. Anyone wanna help yank an engine? heh

I just found out that Pat Braden wrote an article on my white '67 GTV, in Sports Car Market magazine! It was on the auction that I won her at.

Does anyone know when he died? This I just heard about too. I have referred to Mr. Brayden's Alfa Bible many times. He will be sadly missed.

Youre GTV looks flawless from that picture! Did you get a good deal on her?

Oh yeah, are you going to be attending Streets of Willow in February?

[67GTV]

She ain't exactly flawless. It's got a few dings and scratches. And the paint has faded on the front end. She is 100% stock and the interior and engine are in great shape. I am going to switch the bumpers and rims with my red GTV. I plan on dropping in a 2 liter with 105.48 cams while retaining the Weber 40DCOE's.

I put off this response until I put up a hokey little web page at http://giulia.hypermart.net/alfas. I have lots of pictures of both GTV's and a copy of the Pat Brayden article. I recommend using PopUp Killer.

Btw, I pasted copies of emails I received from the "Archivio Storico Alfa Romeo" in my GTV pages. You can email your VIN and receive your Alfa's 'birth certificate'! If anyone wants the email address, I'll dig it up.

As for Streets of Willow, I'd love to go, but only as an observer, this time. I am going to an AROSC lunch in L.B. on the 26th.

I have never seen a GTV with tinted windows. Is this against the Alfa law? I currently have to park my baby outside. I sure don't want my nice seats drying up.

I broke out my Sharpie again and went full limo.

Brand new center grill piece I put on her.

Hey Kai:

Very nice example. I read the write up and that was impressive. You will have to get her pristine and finish her off. Looks like all it needs is a little body work and a paint job.

Great car!

Thanks John!

Clutch, brakes, tires then I'll address the rest.

Oh yeah, I'm missing a few bushings too!

This is a shameless bump in order to show the General a real '67 Giulia Sprint GT Veloce.

Also to show Stu what my $7000 bought. I got the seller to deduct $300 for all the DMV fees I had to pay. She has a few dings and some minor rust spots, but she's all original with no modifications. The article that Pat Braden wrote about this eBay auction can be viewed at my site listed below.
