Sweet, looks like a pretty slick installation and what a hoot to drive I am sure.  There is this guy over in the US (Tom Gold) who runs a panel shop and loves his Alfas etc.  He basically cut the body of a 105 2L off and installed it on the chassis of a GTV6, stretching the front guards and bonnet. It had the GTV6 interior.  He called it the wolf.  Again it was a real piece of work.  The intention being to paint it in lime (ninja green) eventually.

Hi Davidm1750,
Would you have photos of the car or does Tom Gold have a web site.

Hi Alfaaa, I am not sure how to post links from other websites regrettably but I can tell you where to see both the full build and a couple of videos of the wolf. 

If you do a search on YouTube, under:  alfa GTV, the wolf, there are 2 videos of it.  The full build, blow by blow with both heaps of photos and descriptions is on the AlfaBB, under the section:  For Sale, the thread topic is called The leopard lives, you will need to do a search on it, as the thread hasn't been added to for a while.  The leopard is another one of Tom's Alfa GTVs which he had, with a somewhat unique/artistic paint job. 

It is worth checking out, Tom's a really friendly and clever guy.  He's even offered me a drive in the wolf if I can ever get across to the US, where he lives.  It was my name for the car which he took up.
