Alfa parts

["James Tyson" <jftyson@domain.elided>]

   I don't know the sales figure for Alfas in the US through the years,but 
I'm sure in the 60's & 70's the sales figures were very low.Beginning in 
69,the US spec cars became significantly different from their Euro 
counterparts.The companies that provide us with the parts to keep our old 
cars on the road are all small businesses.I for one deeply appreciate the 
efforts of IAP,Centerline,Vick,Alfa Parts,AR Ricambi,ReOriginals,Caribou and 
all of the other vendors that help me keep my 6 Alfas on the road.The US 
market has always been an afterthought for Alfa.We are fortunate that most 
of the parts we need are a phone call away.Keep in mind that there were 
500,00 MGBs made and a large chunk of that total were sold in the US.Anybody 
who drives an Alfa in the US is driving a rare car.
   While on the subject of parts,I am parting out a late-85 GTV6.The 
windshield,airflow meter,tailight lenses and calipers are spoken for.Anyone 
needing GTV6 bits please contact me off-Digest.
