Hi @ all:
I want to share my new love with you guys
first registered march 1970, last owner was an Alfa dealer from Switzerland, 34000km on the clock (probably since the last restoration)
Any other Bertone owners here?
cheers Bacchus

Nice work. Nice colour too. I love those old Alfas, Fiats and Lancia's. Gorgeous cars. Should check out my Fiat at:www.turbo124.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2509 It's virtually a Fiat 1750 GTV at a slightly better price. Love it to bits.
Cheers,
Reuben

Great to see another member on here from Luxembourg! I thought I was the only one.
Where abouts are you exactly, you can find me in Kichberg most days

Hey euroboy I work not far away from Urban pub, and I live in Grevenmacher, my girlfriend works in Diekirch, so I'm most of the time in northern L. the last weeks I have met some Alfa guys in Diekirch, they plan a hoon for next summer, maybe you are interested, as you live in Bissen...

Looks good Bacchus!
I've got a 1750 too! Mine's a Mark 1 version from 1968.
Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine!

Great colour, they had a grey 2000 with 65k original kms, I was quite interested in that one, but I didn't want another grey car
I see you fitted a roll cage?! Did you do other changes to your diva? Carburettors? Suspension? ah and what type of exhaust have you got?

Lovely car that, nice find
Thanks, yeah I'm a lucky guy, they got it the 27th of July, the 1st August I was there to have a look at the whole Alfa range, especially the 2000's they have (I didn't even know they got it...) and the 8th August I bought it... pretty much quick if you consider, that a month earlier I was still looking for a Fulvia....
I can really recomend the garage!!!

Thanks! I've got a full cage with removable door bars, period style bucket seats with four point harnesses, leather Motalita steering wheel, GTA relica alloys and the usual HBE suspension - Koni dampers, Eibach springs and 29mm front anti roll bar with the rear anti roll bar removed. Engine is completely standard except for K&N air filters and a slightly skimmed head. Brakes are standard except for Ferodo DS2500 pads and I've got a LSD back axle. Keeps me out of mischief!!!
If you really want to treat yourself to a nice exhaust system, this seems to be the pick of the moment:

Not cheap but a lovely piece of work!!
that's really a nice exhaust system! I wonder how the guys from the Tüv/MOT react... I'm not sure if I should do it...? Maybe next summer!
Do you still have the standart air filter?
last saturday I bought a 1750 veloce brochure from 68 or 69 and it shows a car with the same colour as yours, I try to take some pictures tonight! It might interest you

No. I have two K&N air filters on mine. They look good and make it very noisy but don't really give much performance benefit...

Thanks bacchus, but I have that brochure too! The colour is AR109 Giallo Ocra (Ochre Yellow) and was very popular at the time but many have been resprayed red over the years. I have checked with the Alfa Archives and mine was always that colour with the black inside.

great I didn't know that it is possible! How did you do it?
sorry for all those questions! I ordred the A-R owners bible last week, that should keep me occupied a few weeks
Cheers Yves
No problem about the questions!! These cars get you like that!!
As far as I know, you can still join the UK Owners Club - they have a very active forum and their technical support for the 105 cars is superb!
Anyway, for background information on an old Alfa, you can send an email to
ArchivioStorico@alfaromeo.com
with your chassis number (should be stamped into the metal bulkhead near the bonnet catch) and they will confirm what history they can!! Good luck!
