Getting one of these on Saturday. Not as old but more miles. The pictures look better than this one but then they are just pictures. Hope its mint.

Hi Neal, Im always amazed at how rusty and worn the Alfas are on the underside chassis in the UK.

It’s usually tyre fitters that Jack them on the sill due to lack of knowledge of the model! I was always cautious where I took mine and insisted I watched and guided them.

For its age, it’s in remarkably good condition underneath. However, in order to soothe my OCD, I’d love to get my hands on it and give it a bloody good clean! 😁

A fundamental thing from personal experience in jtdm engines is to check / change the water pump and the belts also due to the type of construction and set-up of the frame you have to pay attention to the shock absorber arms which are very fragile by replacing them with other reinforced ones🖐🖐🍀⚪🔴

Nothing inspired jealousy in me more than undamaged and rust free GT sills. Almost all GTs I have seen have had visible damage on first look, and mine is going to have to get them replaced eventually from some jacking damage. This car has probably had some great owners and garages through its lifetime.

Deserves a good cut and polish it's as flat as a pancake and the faded badges really let it down, always a tell tale sign when buying an Alfa, if they haven't spent £3 on a badge what else haven't they done.
@Negativvv3 жыл бұрын
Who says that owner is selling? But true, there's a red GTA for sale for £20k on eBay right now yet the seller can't be bothered to change the front and rear badges which are completely worn. They are a bit more than £3 each for OEM ones however!!!
@skimmingstoness3 жыл бұрын
@@Negativvv Didn't say he was selling but it's not a massive undertaking or expense. I've found some of the non OEM badges actually last a lot longer than genuine Alfa badges.

@@skimmingstoness The OEM badges do fade extremely fast if the car is parked outside... I think my front one has faded after only about 3 years.

Don't want to be prick, yet you lift cars wrong. In couple of years there will be rust holes, if you have car outside in colder countries with winter driving and salt on road.
