well finally got thr car in the garage all i have to do now is extend the garage parked next to a 1970 monaro the alfa looks tiny. got a batttery in it and it started first go, ran a bit rough and the tail shaft sounds like the doughnuts are shot. nothing a new set wont fix. first thing on agenda replace timing belt, new set of plugs frsh oil and filter and flush the cooling system. found out a bit of history about the car. guy that sold it to me adviced that it has around for a few years. just bought a rust free tail gate and set of door handles from a guy over in rockbank wreacking a 2.0 litre. still got a few more bits to pick up next week. will post more pictures next weekend during the timing belt replacement.

HHmmm... no reply Enzo?
I noticed the car got to $3,500 in bidding, then suddenly it was removed 'no longer available'

Sold off eBay I guess!
(also notice that eBay cancels those bids, & the history now shows no bids)

At moment, I'd just be happy with a Garage

Love those wheels veesix, the classic late 80s simmons wheel that everyone wanted. Duk

Not just the wheels, that whole car is gorgeous.

Garage? I juts dream of a garage.

All the places I've lived I've never had one. First time I've had a carport actually. Check out the slope on my "workshop".

I'm tossing up whether I want to attempt changing the GTV6's motor on that slope.

Garages can be such a luxury

Hmm...
Changing engines would be a tough job there I reckon!
