Special bits



I'm not remotely saying I have a fix for all the special bits one might
'require' on their Alfa. That said, and not sure if I've mentioned this,
but a young rice rocket fellow has moved in next door. Somewhat
interesting in that I'm sure his lease reads as mine, "No bloody working
on cars in these premises...or else."

Yeah, I have the same feeling as you regarding rice rockets. He's an
extremely bright young man. Just today he came in with a pair of
aluminum rear wings. Gorgeous craftsmanship. Not my cup of tea but feel
they might well be of help to the 2 / 3 Series Spider race cars. Not
saying they wouldn't still swap ends, but might help at higher speeds
(providing you're willing to go major unoriginal.).

Then he shows up with a custom aluminum (quite small) radiator. We both
were busy and I told him we needed to talk.

He also has great sources for carbon fiber parts as well as vinyl
covered dashes / side moldings (ala Just Dashes). 

The, what I'll call, hotrod scene along with their suppliers have always
been able to 'get there' more quickly than traditional sources.

Let's just say for a moment you (and perhaps a small group of others)
want to make some upgrades on your Alfetta GT or (?) - in spite of what
your wives and others say.

How about a carbon fiber set of Euro bumpers & hood?; an aluminium
radiator; perhaps a rear (aluminumm) wing; and perhaps have your dash recovered?

This will be my only suggestion regarding these items. Contact me. If I
get only one or two emails (as I would expect) any / all of these
potential items will fall by the wayside.

Merely throwing this out as a possibility.

Note: They don't have to be Alfetta GT parts.
