This is your new to you Alfa speaking. I guess we should get to know each other! Let me start with the present owner. He's a nice guy and has been very good to me. He doesn't know much about Alfa's but tries real hard to make me happy. He's put new tires on me and changed my clutch slave cylinder and put some music in my dash hole.He also had to change out some tie-rod ends and that rubber do-nut looking thing on my front drive shaft. (That's because he taught his wife to drive a stick with me- that's ok, I was happy to oblige).
Now, about me, I have seen better days, my body has some stage 1 cancer on my left butt cheek (there's a picture because inquiring minds want to know these things). The previous owner put a white paint job on me but I would really like to go back to red. Besides that he should have let someone who knows what they are doing paint me!
I like to drool my juices wherever I go. If I just had some gaskets on some things, I would stop that. However, my engine is tired and could use an overhaul. I like to burn whatever oil I don't mark my spot with. This owner puts in motor honey and it makes me acceptable to the public. I still have good oil pressure, though and I run cool.
Right now, my owner is mad at me because he can't put my starter back on. Oh, he got it off with no problems and it checked good, but the genius doesn't have the patience to put me back together. The reason he took off the starter, you say? Because it wouldn't engage. I told him to check the relay but he didn't listen. Anyway, if you really wanted to, you could push start me and drive me anywhere. That kind of sucks because there's no hills close by.
Did I mention I have an excellent cloth top? If you need or want a good candidate for an easy resto that you can drive now, I'm your car! If not, sorry I wasted your time.

Fiat reconsidering Mazda-based Alfa Romeo roadster? [w/poll]
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Alfa giveth and Alfa taketh away. With apologies to Job (he has gone through a lot, after all), that's how things are looking at the Italian automaker - whether it's the promise of new products or its impending return to the North American market. But it's especially true when it comes to new roadsters.
While Alfa Romeo is expected to unveil the 4C Spider at the Geneva Motor Show this week, reports are now suggesting that its other roadster project is being called into question. That project is a joint venture between Fiat and Mazda, which was set to produce a version of its next MX-5 Miata as an Alfa Romeo, and was even changing the design to accommodate Alfa's requirements.
Now it appears, however, that the whole project in doubt. The problem seems to stem from Sergio Marchionne's pronouncements that, as long as he's in charge, there won't be an Alfa Romeo built outside of Italy.
Mazda and Fiat finalize deal for Alfa roadster, next-gen MX-5 Miata
Fri, 18 Jan 2013Although a little bit later than expected, Mazda and Fiat have signed a final agreement that will bring a next-generation MX-5 Miata to the Japanese automaker and a new roadster to Alfa Romeo. When the proposed arrangement was announced back in May, the two automakers had hoped to seal the deal last year, but it doesn't appear that the production timeline for these cars has slipped any, with both expected to start rolling off assembly lines in 2015.
Other than a shared chassis with a rear-wheel-drive layout, it sounds like the two cars are still planned to be distinct in their own ways from their styling right down to their engines. Mazda will produce both cars at a plant in Hiroshima, Japan, but it isn't clear what role each automaker will play in the cars' developmental process. The big question, of course, is what clever portmanteau name we can come up with, like Toyobaru. Mazda Romeo is the easy choice, but Alfazda might roll off the tongue a little better.
Scroll down for a brief press release from both automakers.
Marchionne offers belated apology for 'wop engine' comment
Wed, 22 May 2013Automotive News reports Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has issued a written apology for his comments regarding his decision to stick with an Italian engine for the upcoming Alfa Romeo 4C. As you may recall, back in January, Marchionne was quoted as saying, "I cannot come up with a schlock product, I just won't. I won't put an American engine into that car. With all due respect to my American friends, it has to be a wop engine." The CEO penned an apology to the Italian American ONE VOICE Coalition for using the racial epithet, saying that he made the comment in jest. Marchionne also said he realizes his remarks were unacceptable.
ONE VOICE, an organization aimed at fighting discrimination and stereotyping of Italian Americans, thanked Marchionne, Chrysler and Fiat for the apology. Marchionne is an Italian-born Canadian citizen, and he's gotten in trouble for other comments in the past. In 2011, he called high interest rates Chrysler was paying to the Canadian government "shyster rates." He apologized a day later.
