My latest oddball ride
After years of owning cossies,intergrales,M5's........etc............yaw n.............i felt i needed something to stick to the bus routes on when it breaks down,if it indeed starts in the first place so here it is "the monster".........................
















PMSL...................and i've had to fix it already myself.............lol.
It handles unbelievable the engines up front the gearbox is in the back perfect 50/50 weight distribution,standard suspension Koni individual reservoirs fully auto height adjustment all round.Basically its an ALFA ROMEO 75 IMSA touring car with a different shell on it,only 1036 ever built and 71 only in this country.

didnt know all that about it, hopefully should be good apart from the breaking down
what did you hae to fix?
The thing started steering like an ocean liner and one of the problems on them is Alfa in their wisdom did'nt use long enough bolts to bolt the steering rack to the subframe of the car so they work loose until finger tight and then the thing starts steering like a boat because of the play when the racks trying to come loose from the car.The fix is to get underneath with a 13mm ring spanner tighten the bolts back up and away you go....................onto the next fix.................pmsl.Which is my hotstarting problem due to substandard 20 year old wiring...............and the Alfa i've got is one of the best ones in existance and has only covered 30k from new.

To me they're more of a work of art,its almost like there alive with soul and character............half of the fun is going to be fixing it from what i can gather owning one so far............lol.
I know the only thing thats interchangable with another model is the windscreen which is identical to the Lancia Delta based Hyena............hands up where ya gonna get one of those from too as only 24 were ever made.........................PMSL.
