Save a Gtv Today

[brook308]

Hi All,

It's been a while since i've had an alfa road car so the time has come to save this old girl.

Would u believe more rust pics

[Cool Jesus]

Hooray, another Alfetta coming back to life. I like to think its Alfa's why of giving use free iron oxide
Keep the photos coming, can't get enough of fixing these bellas

Hard to believe but even more rust, and donor car

I love these cars. I remember when they were new. They were the most beautiful, purest design from Giorgetto Guigiaro with very elegant, clean lines. The later cars didn't look anywhere near as good with all the added plastic bits and pieces. Good on you for saving this very special car.

Totally agree, early 911's, Maserati Merak, Dino 308gt4 and early 116 gtv's are my favourites.
Lucky for me you can pick gtv's for bugger all really.

My butt! What's wrong with plastic bits? I love the 1970s GTVs but there is nothing like a 1985 GTV6

brook308, this is so cool that you're sharing this with us. I have a Alfetta Gt at about the same stage as this. Looks like these things rust in all the some areas, You have inspired me to put up some pics of mine.
Keep up the great work

Good to hear GR, post ur pics in this thread if u like, I'd be keen to have a look.
My resto is on a tight budget and timeframe, I just want a road gtv again, I have a couple of track gtv's but still need something to go get pizzas in. Hope to have mine registered by mid may.

Tend to agree as in my opinion, they just kept refining  the design as they went along.

Nevertheless, I like 'em all and I just bought a couple more to the family in the last months or so. An '83 and an "85.

Alfa gold !

Don't think I've ever seen it done but I always thought the 116 Gtv could have done with a big brother, same styling but say 150mm wider and a longer wheelbase with a lower roofline.
A bit meaner looking, say like a Detomaso Mangusta type of car with a v8 quad cam!

Well they tried to meet you half way George. They did make a V8 version.

Look out it's Mad Dog MD.  G'day MD it's been a while.
Have you been out stalking unsuspecting Alfa owns again reliving them of their GTV's?
You know what the doctor said about this.  Well good buddy l'm with you, tell the white coats to get stuffed and collect as many as you can, like you say they are Gold. 
Few cars can stimulate a true petrol head like a GTV can.  Personally the two litre model gets me into the grove quicker than just about anything know to mankind, but then l need little encouragement. 

Good to see another GTV in good hands brook308, have fun and enjoy you project.
