Title: Wanted - Alfa 75 or 90
Post by: Stuart Thomson on August 04, 2011, 11:15:37 PM
Hi All,

I have had my entry confirmed for the Shitbox rally 2012.

Now I need a car.

I would like an Alfa 75 or 90, but will consider other (reasonably large) Alfa's.

MUST cost less than $1k, preferably closer to $500, them's the rally rules.

So, if you have a crappy Alfa 75 or 90 just sitting around, I'll be happy to take it off your hands.  Just remember that I will paint it (hopefully like the #55 car from Talladega Nights), and it will end up in Cairns (hopefully) and be sold for charity.

Cheers
Stuart

Simon, I think your on the right track. I'd take the 33 4x4 wagon, all that space, fold down rear seats so you can even sleep in it, no fuel injection/electrical problems. I've even got one of them, comes with a free cappuccino, but you have to drain the sump for that.  $500.
Perfect for a little off-roading.

Just for you Mick,
I guess I could sell my race car for $500, only driven on weekends, some would say 'lady driver', has trouble starting and you can only drive it above 5000rpm. Oh, sorry I forgot to mention its GREEN, always a deal breaker that bloody green!

What are you saying Mick, you like green? If not, I'll borrow my brothers car, I'll tell him I'm going to a dyno day or something, too easy.
