fiat 218:

Which Alfa do you have? Mine is a Dutch blue '72 GTV 2000 and I can't say that I like the Fiat better. That could change though.

Do you have a picture of the 72 GTV? We like all Italian cars :)

Both look like very fun cars.

SeldomSeen you are lucky to have such fun roads nearby. I'm particularly fond of to road up to Riverside. Did lots of cycling on the Peak to Peak when I was in Boulder.

fiat218: Stunning. BTW, my Fiat was painted in Alfa red. I like it better than the slightly deeper original Fiat red.

Keep track of all your expenditures on this car. After you get it sorted, let us know if you'd sell it for $9900 :wink:

How's the "new" '69? Haven't heard from you in a while. Will you be able to get some miles in before winter arrives?

Due to recent budget cuts and the rising cost of electricity, gas, and oil, we have decided to turn off the light at the end of the tunnel. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Not to put too fine a point on it, things didn't turn out as happy as I expected. The engine was assembled by chimpanzees. Big trouble. Tom at Aspen will be able to put a nice down payment on a new Fiat 500 with what this job will earn him.
