manuelalfaholic's "monster" is now getting some serious juevos.

Today the motor got pulled and the engine bay stripped for some new paint.

Even the yellow man stopped by to check out today's activities.

compatability

I know why this thread is so cherished. These sedans are just lovable. I have had mine for 5 days, not only has it not broken down yet, but the essence is truly unmatched. It is like driving in a playground.

I know what you mean.....

Supers are just so much fun to drive !
Just got back from driving my '68 to Monterey from ther OC. Just wonderful.
Especially the 80 miles up Hwy. 1 thru Big Sur and into Carmel. Then a great 3 laps of Laguna Seca with the Alfa Club.
Your TI looks to be in great condition. Take good care of her and you will have years of satisfaction.

STOP IT! How am I supposed to get any work done when I have a Super ready to re-assemble, and you guys keep posting about what a blast they are to drive?

I've been driving my GTV for the last two months, and I switched back to my Super last week. The GTV is faster, handles better, etc., but the Super is just more enjoyable all the way around, for intangible reasons. Best car on earth, even if I didn't get to take it around Laguna Seca.

Think of it as motivation to finish your project, that's what I do.

+1. Drove our Super 350+ miles each way to Monterey and back. Got to terrorize part of the old Pebble Beach road course on Saturday night, too. The Super never missed a beat. Sooo much more fun to drive than modern metal. The had throttle doubles as old-school cruise control, too
