This was the first time I uncovered it in a long time. I decided to try and start it for the first time in 2 - 3 years, to my surprise it started first kick with a new battery and ran just fine!
very nice car. that is my dream car.

Anthony,
I have the Centerline springs on both a '65 Spider Veloce and a '62 Giulia Sprint. I'd highly recommend them for either car because they lower the body to a much better clearance over the wheels, and the slightly stiffer spring rates are just right. Two comments: I don't care for the yellow finish, so I repainted them semi-gloss black. And be sure to replace the rebound straps on the rear axle while you have the springs out -- they're not likely in great shape at this point, and it's easier to remove the mounting hardware with the springs out of the way.
Jim

We are slammed with work so it got put back in a corner. Hopefully I'll have time to get to it before summer. If not, I'll just put more miles on the GTA
