Hello my name is Sam,

I have a 86 GTV6 Grand Prix Alfa

I am really excited about joining your Forum

Hello Sam, welcome to the Forum, i am old enough to remember when your Grand Prix GTV6 first came out, it was spoken about being Alfa Romeo's answer to Ferrari, and it was made before Fiat took over..., what state do you hail from?, Colin.

Welcome Sam - post some pics of your GTV6?

I from Melbourne in the South East

Welcome aboard.......

Throw some pics up of your car when you get a chance, always good to get the juices flowing!

Cheers.

Really? I thought the differences between the GP and the standard GTV6 were cosmetic (internal and external trim) - were there some mechanical upgrades?

Pics are mandatory around here by the way, otherwise we'll send The Boys around and you'll wake up with a horses' head in your bed....

Having said that, welcome to the forum!

I had a horse's head in bed once but the Missuz renigged and said I could come back in the house and leave the stables if I sell off the 3 unregistered Alfas parked on the nature strip...

I drive a GTV6 too Sam and welcome to the stable?

[gtvsix86]

Thanks again for the welcome

I will post some pictures as soon as I can

The GP's were unleaded and ran cats.

Welcome Sam.

You car is now quite rare and would be good to see.  They always get an extra bit of attention.

If you do join the club and get involved, you can display your car at Flemington at the end of April.

Cheers

Ahh, ok. But didn't all GTV6s from a certain date switch to unleaded and cats? Or was this solely the GPs?

AFAIK it was just the GP's which were the final run of GTV6's built for Oz.
