The pictures are yours to use.
As to the wheels, they were on the car when I bought it many years ago - apparently a factory option according to the previous owner. I rather like the pattern, but as I said, at present the Alfisti seem to turn up their collective noses at them.
If you are a member of the AlfaBB (a US bulletin board at
www.alfabb.com), do a search under "Cromodora center caps" and have a look at post #7. Some guy with the login Pat Garrett cast a set in pewter from moulds that he made. They sound very similar to my centre caps only mine are alloy. I've attached a photo lifted from the BB and if you contact him, he may still have some for sale.
I look forward to reading your article.
All the best,
Chris
