Hi Carlo
Definitely a real beast and the engine transplant looks like it was made for the Alfetta GTV. I have not come across the car at any local club events in Sydney or Canberra. I suppose it is a recent transplant or a regional country vehicle.

i believe it has a ferrari 360 inlet throttle body ( copy) electric water pump
etc 330 hp and its not A TURBO
says volumes about the car and its chassis to handle this

At 330 hp the chassis would be fine , but the drive shaft &  transaxle would be pretty nervous.

Can you tell us any more about the chassis work? There's obviously some additional tubing and the lateral brace, plus the seam welding.

And what looks distinctly like a roll cage.

Plus no brake booster and the bonnet that looks like it's held on witth pins.

Track car with number plates?

Got any more pics Carlo, so we can see the whole car?

Wish the engine bay of my GTV looked like that....

Hi Guys
I have to take my hat off on the excellent workmanship and Re-Engineering of the Alfetta GTV by Ewan and Claude to incorporate the 3,2 litre 24 valve engine transplant. Have seen many modifications incorporating similar engine configuration on the internet over time, but this would have to rank as one of the most impressive. Hope to catch up on an AROCA NSW event in the near future or at Alfesta 2018 over the Easter weekend (AROCA NSW hosting).
Cheers

What does the car use for a handbrake?
How, eh-hem, 'legal' is it with the outboard rear brakes, no booster and cage?
