There is a program on community television station in Melbourne called Classic Restos, where they show cars that have been restored, now they are doing Motor Bikes and they devoted half a program to proper Motorbikes, Ducati's, then they totaly contrasted by the other half of the program had Harley Davison's, i know there are a few out there in Alfa Romeo land with great taste in cars and Motorbikes, so keep an eye on channel 31 as they repeat it a few times during the week, Colin.

Fletch on Classsic Restos is always worth watching. They always do a good report on the historic Racing  after  PI classics in March & Sandown in November . Group S also gets pretty good coverage. From memory they also did a piece on the Veloce Racing Team at Eastern Creek a few years ago

The host is called 'Fletch', and he always finds a good looking lady to say, "Your watching classic Restos with Fletch", he has a soft spot for Chryslers, maybe in a few years we could get him along to an Alfa Romeo car show to look at the new Alfa models with Chrysler Pentastar engines, Colin.

Positive thinking Colin, but hope we can get him down to PI in March for next year being the 50th Anniversary if Giulia 105.  We should get a few cars together for the display that weekend.

When Classic Restos did a piece on Veloce Racing Team at Eastern Creek a few years ago, they spent almost as long looking at the tow car as the racing Alfa Romeo's, because the Alfa was 'only' a 4 cylinder where the towing Rig was a V-8 Ford, but Fletch comes accross as a good bloke genuinely interested in cars, with a great sense of humor, Colin.
