Hello

[Lou Sprint]

Ciao Alfisti!

I'm Lou from Melbourne, long time lurker, first time poster.
I recently bought a 1987 Alfa Sprint S3 QV (it may be TI, it may be Veloce, I tried to find it out for months then I gave up, only thing I know is that it has a 1.5l boxer double carburettor)
Luckily being a 3rd series it was zinc-dipped before painting, so the only rust is on the wheel arches.
Unfortunately, it wasn't turning on, after a weekend spent on the tools I got the engine running and oh man what a melody (will post a video)
After a bit of cleaning and replacing fuel hoses I went for a joy ride in the parking lot (no rego) and everything was fine until the water pump started leaking coolant on the timing belts.
I've got a new pump, gasket, timing belts (Conti-tech), tensioners and few other parts that were missing, still a lot to do and very hard to source spare parts but I'm getting there.
The main goal is to get a rwc and a rego within 2 months, hopefully I'll find a few missing bits and get it back on the road.
Since I got a ton of question, I'll be pestering for a bit.

Hope to see some Sprints in the wild!
