Let's start a guessing game on how much a car like that would cost someone to have built. Including labour. I have no idea but would imagine several tens of thousands of £.

Glorious. Bet it is a Hoot to drive as well. Re cost too build for the average punter I would imagine sufficient might cover it. Nice pics too.

I wonder if anyone actually has driven it?

Sure looks great - and the body and wheel colour combo and tyres cements my choice for my GT build.

My engine bay is a bit of a blank canvas at the moment. This car makes me want to save for a Alfaholics Twinspark! The down side is, it would take me twenty years...

Too right Pep.  Mind you I shouldn't complain too loudly as I have just got back from a 9 day surfin safari around the Byron Bay beaches. Waves were nice on the long board, the chicks nice to look at (from a distance, of course given the missus was with me), great weather and the beer was icy cold  ;D ;D

Bloody AH, and their Alfa porn, it makes a grown man become too lustful  ;D

Do Alfaholics make this cam cover? It's not a normal TS one, but it does have provision for the VVT device.

There will be one of these popping up in Victoria shortly ( hopefully a sprint meeting later in the year).  A work colleague  Tony Raditsis has an ex Max Kinnersley car he is converting. The story is over on Alfa BB

wow - that looks like an RC model car. Check the fat rear end, love the finish and attention to detail on their builds - race it - like you stole it.

In case anyone missed - it's a genuine 1600 GTA, not one of their replicas.  More photos here:

I like GTA p**n.

Seriously awesome stuff those TS engines. Anyone have any idea on cost? The thought of my 72 GTV running a 200HP engine needs to be explored! ;)
Title: Re: They certainly know how to take photos...
Post by: pancho on June 07, 2012, 09:51:10 PM
A 200hp TS through AH is about AU13-17k. I hear though that these engines are built elsewhere in Europe (not by AH thrmselves ) though. Vin could build you a nice one as well if you needed one - but call him for an estimate I guess.

I'm not looking at the receipts on mine - easier to just shred them.

Post by: Davidm1600 on June 07, 2012, 10:39:12 PM
There is no doubt that those AH clones let cars they are restoring shows their capabilities. Yup a 200bhp engine is going to cost big bucks, but then again so would a high spec engine built out here. A mate of mine had Vin build him a special engine and gearbox for his project Giulia Ti Super replica he was building. The cost in excess of $14k and that was some years ago.

Dave, did you ever hear who GC sold it to?

No he never mentioned. I had hoped to catchup with at Byron bay when we were up there back in Feb but it just didnt happen. I could get in touch to find out as have his mo ph No. Would be nice to think that there had been progress on that Super, given how much had been done/spent on it.

Hey Guys, it is a Super, of course it looks good. Even better with the AH good bits bolted on. The excellent photos just add to the end result and make an already good looking car even better. At a rough guess I'd reckon that the suggestion of many tens of thousands would just be a starting point. Just wish I had that sort of a budget.
