restoration

Hey guys, the area where rear doors meet the fender with their bead - holy moly, most challenging metal shaping work anywhere at any car. All the best Johannes

Hello everyone, This forum has been an incredible tool for learning about my Spider. I bought it in March 2019 and drove it nearly everyday until late September. The car wasn't in the best shape, but I still felt great on the road. The only real noticeable problem was the gearbox, grinding in...

So i finally decided to make a restoration thread for my GT Junior, So first of my name is Felipe but you can also call me Flip. I'm a 22 year old engineering student from the Netherlands who bought this alfa 2 years ago from South-Africa. The pics are from almost 2 years ago. In the mean...

Hi guys, Any ideas where I could find a good restorer of wooden steering wheels? The 2300S Coupe has got only the frame of the steering wheel and it could use to dress it up nicely with some fine wood. Regards, Vlad

So my dad continues his battle with his 1967 Duetto. It is getting very close now with paint, engine, all coming together - but now he is tackling the dash and has forgotten a few things since he took it apart several years ago (!). Although he photographed and documented things as they came...

Hello everyone. I am new to the blog and new to the Alfa world. I just bought a 1967 Giulia GT Veloce that is not in very good shape. The car is in Columbus, Ohio and I need help in trying to find a good shop close to Columbus in order to start working on the car mechanical parts initially...

So I've just moved to the US of A and have found myself with a lot of time on my hands and I've decided id like to restore another alfa with my old man. Lack of knowledge about the surrounding towns/cities/areas near me, means that craigslist searches are pretty difficult as they rely on...

Many thanks to our customer Roberto B., who was so nice to send these pictures of his Alfa Romeo Giulietta SS. This is a great testimony of Elvezio’s interiors. Roberto B. got a wonderful result with all interiors by Elvezio Esposito. We are so thankful for the beautiful pictures he shared with...

Ok, so I had a 1980 spider years ago...it went with the divorce, I miss the car not the ex. So I happened into a guy that had a 1984 Spyder 2.0 but had no idea what he had (I only had a general idea). I of course couldn't get my wallet out fast enough to buy the car when he said he was going...

Hello everyone, I'm restoring a 1961 giulietta sprint veloce. I'm currently have issues with the parking brake system. It's to my understanding that the veloce had a different/altered backing plate as well as cables and floor mounts to make the system operate. My issue, I can't find any...

Few words to describe the restoration of this 1960 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider 1300 at our shop in Italy. Pics are from couple of years ago, but wonderful to explain by themselves the precise work we did and still helpful for those that are restoring their Giuliettas. The interiors have been...

I've had a 87 Alfa Spider stored in my warehouse for the past 10 years. I bought it for $500 USD and it had obviously had some sort of catastrophic wiring failure judging by the melted mangle of wiring near the fuel tank. Over the years, I basically taken everything out of the interior...

1966 Sprint GT Veloce has the original Fispa gas tank in it. It holds gas, but is rusty inside. I found a place that will media blast the inside and coat it with a Kreem-type product. The process of media blasting the inside is cutting two access windows in the tank, blast, then weld them up...

I'm restoring a 1966 Sprint GT Veloce with a really corroded battery tray. The base was rusted beyond saving, so I bought a replacement from Classic Alfa. What I received is the gray primer base shown in the photos. Is there a "correct" way to attach the old vertical shroud onto the...

My 1966 GTV has the black plastic steering wheel that's cracked up. Has anyone found someone who actually refinishes the plastic for these wheels? I don't want to fill the cracks with epoxy and paint it, I want the wheel plastic replaced. I spoke to a refinisher in S. California who does...
