Hello

I bought Guilia Super AR334486 in Miami Fl last week, the car was owned by Al Montenegro of Marina Del Ray CA and Miami Fla for several years, does anyone remember Al or have any info on this car??

Thanks

Congratulations; seemed like a steal for the price.
I monitored it on ebay, but don't have any previous info on the car in the Giulia Sedan Register. I'll add all this though, and add you to the Register for newsletters.

Is the car black? It was hard to tell in the ebay listing. And what color interior? Does it in fact have a 1750 in it?

Considering that I had to go to the bottom of FLa to fetch it, not so much a steal...car is green, interior is hard to determine. I have to check the #'s to ensure it is a 1750, as I have an inquiry from the bay area on the drivetrain. There is a serious story behind this car. I hope to write an article about it as soon as I get some more facts. This car is the rustiest Alfa I have had, but the drivetrain has been maintained and rebuilt and I have 200 reciepts. Mr. Montenegro was buying oil filters at Shankle 4 or 5 times a year at one point. The bottom of the car, rockers and lower apron are made of Budweiser cans. Mr Montenegro apparently was in the lumber/wood/woodworking business at some point, the dash top and veneer is really nice.

I also have another super that I will get the vin on, it has been parted, mostly...I tried to sell it whole years ago but this one was not considered to be worth restoring back then....

It donated parts to Dana Loomis's cars among others.
