FWD on all Alfa products. I doubt seriously if Alfa management would

wrong and maybe they would have. I just don't think so.<<

>Dubious. The Sud design project preceded the Fiat takeover by almost 20

Also don't forget about the Tipo 103 that Alfa was working on in 1960,
prolly as a response to the Mini.  I don't think Hruska was at Alfa at
that time so it would have been a Satta project, so Alfa management was
studying fwd long before FIAT became involved.
