Title: 1750 GTAm in Australian Muscle Car magazine #79
Post by: Paul Newby on February 17, 2015, 11:21:35 AM
Fellow Alfisti,

Just letting you know that the latest issue (No.79) of Australian Muscle Car magazine has an article on the history ex-Brian Foley 1750 GTAm owned and restored by Vin Sharp.

My thanks to Vin Sharp, Evan Bottcher, Stuart Thomson and C H Fu for the photos that they provided for this article.

Cheers,
Paul

Top article Paul.  I showed it off last Wednesday at club night, raised a few eyebrows about an Alfa in Muscle Car mag.  Having a flick through the rest of the magazine it's actually pretty good with some more historic racing content.  Shouldn't judge a book (magazine) by it's cover?

Might go and read it in the newsagent at lunch  :P 
Not the first time an Alfa has had a guernsey in a muscle car mag. I bought a copy of a 1966 Australian Hot Rod mag because it had a road test of a Giulia Super! Its actually a very entertaining and complimentary read!
I have some readable higher-res scans on my website here:
