Where are the Classic drivers?????

Two posts in the Classic lounge in the last week
Where are you guys? More busy with engineering your classic than spending time on AO?

Some piccies to keep us few (and hopefully the lot of you) happy!

One here Sir....*puts hand up*

Thing is....it's winter and mine isn't driven much on the salt encrusted roads here so it hasn't broken down...so I don't need to post

Would love to see some pics when you get the job done. Good luck with that

Re: Where are the Classic drivers?????

I'm still here, its been raining a lot in Johannesburg so my Junior & spider are tucked away till its dry again (Water + old Alfa = no more old Alfa).
We have a run on Sunday morning, so I will post some pics next week.

Hey Fluffy, you bought your Bertie in Holland??
I recognise the Gallery in Brummen in the background.

Got any pics of her you made yourself?

She certainly looks the part

Too bad Eric. Mine is doing fine in Dutch weather though Even in these wet days, she holds her own, spending the night in the parking lot .

Mid 2007 I will move to a new home with a garage box

They don't cost an arm and a leg. For about 5.000 pounds you should get a decent Giulia. Luckily for me in Holland they are road tax exempt and the insurance premium is very low. More money to spend on maintenance

Re: Where are the Classic drivers?????

Since I sold my GT 1300 Junior I no longer own a classic. It kinda seems that the Alfasud or Alfasud sprint don't count as classics which is a bit odd given that my sud is 23 years old and my sprint 25?

Also I find it very difficult getting pics the correct size to post as attachments - much prefer to post them as [IMG] links on the images section.
