Hi All

Just started to revive my 1979 Alfetta GTV 2000 after 5 years in storage
I'll take some better pics when I have sorted the brakes

Cheers

ohh Nice!
Welcome and we hope you join your local club so as to have some excused to get this car out on the road and seen.
What are your plans? - restoraiton, Group S, road registered club day track car?

Plenty of people accros AROCA OZ with experience in these cars so you will have a wealth of support if you have any issues or needs.

Last year I  brought  a 1979 GTV back from a 16 year sleep. Hugh Harrison at Monza Motors has been really good  source to help with  some of those hard to get missing parts ( ie a twin spark motor ). He has all the other bits to.

Cheers

Nice! 
I owned a 1979 Alfetta GTV and it simply dissolved into a pile of rust in my driveway.  It was riddled with tin-worm.  I've currently got another 1979 GTV Group S car and when it was completely stripped it showed very little rust which has of course now been completely removed.

They are fantastic cars and you should get many years of enjoyment from it.

Its only got a few bits of rust
Someone had put a rubber mat under the spare and I think this held in the moisture

G'day,

looks very sharp, Fetta, and nice ride height, too!

We'll have our annual 116 register get-together in few months time - just in case you're up for a trip to Sydney!

Maybe you can do a run down the coast a bit
