One of the best stepnoses I have ever seen. Amazing car!

One of my favorite Alfas. Pics were taken at Continental Motors in Hisdale, Il. This car will probably be available for the 2008 AROC Convention in Chicago.

Say, I really like the yellow color of the 71 1750 at the top of the post. Is this the same as the original or have you brightened it up a bit? I have a 69 1300 Jr in ochre, but it seems a bit more of a mustard color. I'm going to retain the overall color scheme, but would like to know if you have a paint number for the color you show here.

See "hagin111" Ocra GTV on page #4, it's beautiful. My 1750 was originally Ocra, it is presently a Ferrari Fly Yellow. As I said in an earlier post, if I had to do it again, I would love to have an Ocra 1750 - just like the factory brochure.

If you decide to go with the fly yellow, I'll tell you a story on how we arrived at this particular shade of yellow.

Maybe so, but since my Junior will never see a 100% original restoration or begin to compete with the pristine condition of these cars, I'm going to play with it. I think I'll finish it in a rallye style, rallye lights, sponsor stickers, and racing numbers. What the hell, I might even have a little fun running some of the hundreds of miles of wide open gravel mountain and prairie roads in Montana. Besides, cops don't spend a lot of time on the backroads. If I get stopped, I'll just ask where I got off track.

That actually sounds like extreme fun! Go for it, GTV were rallyed by a few folks.

Here are a few pictures of a really nice GTA conversion of a stepnose GTV.

Do you have the picture of the "passenger" in the GT40?

[James1750]

Thanks for the rear shots Carm -

such a great looking GTV you have there!

[Chi Si Dici]

Here is the passenger of the GT40 and it looks like he'd rather by in something more exciting........like an Alfa!

[Chi Si Dici]

Wayne Seely organizing the grid and Andy Besic's upgrade from his GT40 to a very nice red GTV including Autodelta sliding-block.

[andyb6]

Thanks for the pictures Carm!

My 4 year old son couldn't wait to be able to go "racing with daddy" so I took him out for noontime touring. Somewhere between the 331 V-8 with straight pipes @ 6500rpm and 1.02g in the turns he fell asleep on the track

I came to my senses and got myself the Red gtv above.

Here is me @ Mid-Ohio
