Top 10 Ways to Tell Your Alfa Has Been Fitted With
Frodo Pads:

10. Your car tends to pull towards any field that
appears to be a shortcut to mushrooms.

9.  When you revive it after a winter layoff, you seem
to hear a voice saying, "Where is the pale king?"

8.  The shift lever glows menacingly when your are in
the presence of German sports cars.

7.  Your mechanic looks at the deeply finned sump,
takes a deep breath, and says, "Mithril..."

6.  When rebuilding the engine, you slip the oil
control ring onto the #1 piston... and it disappears.

5.  The license plate frame on the car claims that it
was from Underhill Motors.

4.  To get the door to open, you have to say "Friend."

3.  You use a propane torch to free a stuck nut, and
strange fiery letters appear around the edge of the
casting it's holding down.

2.  Fred Di Matteo calls you "fool of a Took" for not
buying the original Spica notes from Shayna Geller at
AROC.

And the NUMBER ONE WAY you can tell your Alfa is using
Frodo pads:

1.  When you replace the clutch, you notice the
pressure plate only has nine fingers.
