Hi all,
About 6 months ago whilst waiting at the lights a beta up old Alfa 105 pulled up next to me. I think it was grey. I thought a couple of chickens might have been roosting in it when it was not being driven. Anyway I sat in my car looking at the lights and decided I had to have one. If I could have got out and walked around it I would have. I reckon their style is timeless, feline and pure Alfa.

So I did some research, found out what it was and went on the hunt and after a couple of false starts and chickening out I've finally found and bought one!

Its a 1974 2000 GTV with matching numbers. Not concours but no rust, slightly worked motor, good interior in red.

So now I can show up at club meetings

Can anyone recommend a good Melbourne Alfa mechanic that I can have a long term allegiance to? I need to get a RWC initially as the car is from interstate.


Picture attached.

Welcome Clive,
Please post some more photos of your car sometime.

Thanks guys. Interesting news about the WA transfer options. Vicroads reckoned it needed a RWC but perhaps that was if it was unregistered. I'll check again but that would be much easier.

Thanks Justin for the encouragement. I'll certainly need it I'm sure.

Total restoration!! - how long have you been working on it? Can I give you a ring to talk about repairers.

Nice 105, Clive!

Regarding Road Worthy, and to confirm what Brad said, we brought a Land Rover over from W.A recently, and since it was already registered the transfer involved no RWC.

Also, I highly recommend Monza Motors in Bayswater for all your Alfa needs (not to detract from the other club sponsors, I'm sure they're all great.)

Well done Clive!  Looks great.  My copy of Tipler's book arrived today - at least I can read about them.
