       That is Hans Milo's 1973 GT-V6.  When I first heard of that car, I 
cringed.  The memory of the 91 spider with a V-6 at the Portland convention came 
to mind.  We had to fail that spider during tech inspection for the lack of a 
fire wall among other problems.  
       When I finally saw Hans' GTV at the Nashville, Alfa Convention, I was 
impressed.  The installation is VERY nicely done.  One can learn to live with 
the bump on the hood.  I think a roll bar would be a good idea in a car of 
such speed capability.
