Re: Wanted to buy Alfa 90 or 75 Very Cheap

Hey sheldon you didn't notice if that 75 was a twin spark did you?, bluey is on her last legs and i've decided a twin spark upgrade could be a good project (might even try and squeze in the air con) so i'm on the hunt for a motor or a whole car

For a really cheap Alfa you might have to lower your sights to a 33/Sud.  Probably be faster round a paddock anyway, albeit less fun.

Talk about trying to wind people up.

Didn't notice sorry mate.  If you find one and aren't going to use the LSD can I have first dibs?

I've split this one as it was beggining to wander off topic!

Good thinking Sheldon (damn it, why didn't I think of that!)

Where's your pride Col. Just do the 2 Litre. A good 105 is a thing to be cherished. you know that.

I know gary, its just that I've done the 2L thing a couple of times now and I thought I'd try something a little different.  It's not like I want to put a V8 in it and It's basically the same block, just think about it as the next step from an autodelta head! and I always be able to put the 2L back in it later on and no one will ever know, but now you've got me thinking about a semi-hot 2L mmm....... Dam it!!!

Then you could have a production line.......ground work and testing in blue Alfa, then swap it in to red Alfa....more development and testing blue Alfa, then swap again in to the red Alfa...so on and so on.
