Looking for service or repair or parts for your Alfa in Victoria?
Here's a link to the list of club sponsors:
https://www.alfaclubvic.org.au/
Please consider ringing one of these club supporters.
cheers,
Evan.
The Club has support and sponsorship by several well known sponsors. Their efforts and knowledge is significant to local Alfisti.
Here is the link to Club Sponsors https://www.alfaclubvic.org.au/ (https://www.alfaclubvic.org.au/)
However one future option that may be taken is in creating a service directory where the club can develop contacts with other Alfa Workshops on a needs basis.
I am sure that there are other Alfa Specialists in Box Hill, Thomastown and Dandenong but we have never found a specialist in the West ?
Does someone have another workshop names to offer ?
Does anyone know a panel beater/painter that supports/sponsors the club? I am need of one and couldn't find one on the link above.
Thanks
Julian
Rankins Panels (Bayswater) do a bit of work on Alfas and are well known to Monza Motors etc.
Extreme Body Repairs (Dandenong) are well know in 900 series and concorso circles.
Just heard about Alfa Corsa in Dandenong - mainly for contract work now.
In the inner East is Donini Motors in East Malvern(next to the CAMS building) and Ital Motors in Auburn/Hawthorn just off Auburn Rd.
We have 'Il Bolide Rosso' in High Street Thornbury who has requested to advertise and become a club sponsor. The Club had a restoration night there a few months ago.
Alfa Parts in Moorabbin has expressed interest in getting involved with the club. I think he has the older Alfetta GT's and 90's there.
This is great, thanks. I have one last door to remove (have a few bolts to drill) and then will be taking them and some other bits to someone. Thanks.

there was a work shop in werribee that did alfas
it was called factory italian automotive technology
apperently the guy did his time mille miglia motors.
In Thomastown, for parts and wrecking, there is Milano Spares, 13 Tuscan Court Thomastown, phone 9462 2138, talk to Marc Pannozi, Also for servicing in Brunswick there is Marranello Pur Sang motors, Colebrook road, talk to Bruno, its close to trains and trams, Colin.
Milanos has previously gone thru a bit of change.
The proprietor is interested in getting involved with the club again - especially with the growing use of the internet for sales.
Same with Donini Motors in Caulfield/Malvern East.
Also same with Arbarth Motors in South Melbourne.
Can not find one in the western suburbs.
I'm in Werribee and use Maranello Pur-Sang , very pleased.
there is northern alfa in thomastown. vince has 30 years experience, also Milano spares 13 Tuscan crt thomastown they also have over 30 years experience, with qualified technicians.
New Alfa service provider in the western suburbs - Alfa Men.
They will now be advertising with the club. refer link on our homepage or:

I swear by Beninca's.
http://www.beninca.com.au/
They are very knowledgeable, trustworthy and mild-mannered. They are patient and very skilled. They don't trumpet themselves around - they have been good at what they do a long, long time!! I trust my GTV2000 there no question. I've tried some other places - one ripped me off $1000 and the other left with me failed brakes. The best thing about Beninca's is their depth of knowledge of HOW Alfa's work - you have to have that experience, as they are quirky in some ways. Good luck. :)
Looking for a good welder for some small rust repairs in the Northern Suburbs - any suggestions ?
Thanks
Shane
...3 days after my first encounter with Mattew and Alfamen..
I came to pick up early in the morning my companys Nissan parked across his workshop...and i dont wont to get out of my Alfa...im thinking whats happening why did i left it for so long...thinking again..last three days since i got the Alfa back from service i dont wont to get out of her..driving to work daily... coming home and asking my wife should i go and get something from the shops or take the kids somewhere, or just go and drive my uncle somewhere..she says ive spent too much i think no i wanna spend bit more..she says too many cars we have, i say yes but only one Alfa..i increased the price on carsales for $3000 and i know that noone will call but im still happy..
....hmmm, i love Alfas and everything about them, but this is something different..its like i found a new bigger spot in my heart for my Bella, im again in love...
What has happened this few days...i dont know...

Matt is a top guy too, he is one of the most helpful mechanics about, happy to advise &
runs a great workshop too. IMO

a big +1 goes to Monza Motors (Alfpa Repairs) at Bayswater.
Just before Christmas, I was experiencing a long brake pedal in the 159. It was also chewing brake fluid. Took it to Hugh, who in less than 5 minutes diagnosed the problem. The brake fluid line from the reservoir to the master cylinder had been rubbing on an air-conditioning line, and a small hole had developed (a fault at time of manufacture).
Above and beyond the call-of-duty, Hugh liaised with the not-so-helpful people at my warranty company (the car being second hand, and coming with a 3 year extended warranty from the dealer) and obtained authorisation for the works to be done under warranty - thus not costing me a cent.
Mick was great with the repair as he also put an extra piece of tubing around where the new brake fluid line was close to the air-conditioning line - to protect the brake fluid line so that the issue wouldn't arise again. The work was done on the 23rd of December, and I was very pleased to have the car back before Christmas. Potsie
Hi all,
Seeing as this thread refers to recommendations for servicing places, I thought I'd post this here.
I'm set to pick up my first Alfa tomorrow, a 2014 Giulietta JTDM2.0 that I picked up for a decent price, and I was wanting to perhaps have some cosmetic changes done on the interior, namely with the dashboard, and possibly a sunroof.
I'd want to have this done factory, so to speak. I did a search through the forums, but couldn't see anything on fitting factory options to a used Alfa.
How can you find out what options are available, and where would you take the car to have it done?
Thank you.
I had some great work done on my 159 Ti JTD by Seb at Mauceri Motors in Clayton in the south east. Would highly recommend them

Another vote for Sebastian and his team from me, they look after both my cars
Hey guys, can anyone recommend a classic car panel beater to repair an Alfa 105 Veloce. I am after preferably a semi retired panel beater that can work out of a workshop based in Chadstone Melbourne or their place. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated [emoji1317]

In the search for a new mechanic I tried https://www.facebook.com/antoniosautoservice in Thomastown. Love his clean spacious set-up, including a short black served up by his partner from a real cafe espresso machine!
What is it with Thomastown that has 4 Alfa Romeo service shops? Must be because of the number of Alfas I see in Nillumbik Shire
Hi Guys, the link on the first post of this thread is supposed to be a list of Club sponsors. That's not what opens up when I click on the links.
It turns out to be a membership application form.
Im looking for an independent Alfa specialist in the Doncaster area. I have a Giulietta I would like to have a pre-purchase inspection carried out on, and the owner doesn't want to go very far from home.
Cheers
Rob
For the list of sponsors, go to the referenced link home page (AROCA VIC) and scroll down on RHS.
+1 for Sebastiano! I just love looking at the collection of racing photos from the old country outside the office.
I use Maranello Pur-sang in Brunswick. I have had the head, cams, values and carbs done there. They really know Alfa's (all Italian cars) and Bruno/ Mary/ Giancarlo give amazing service.
Also had drive shaft balanced and gear linkage improved. Alfetta GTV '79
Alfa GT had full service, timing belt etc.
Nothing but 100%
