For sale. Alfa Spider 916. Fully race prepared. The build of this car was covered on the forum a few years ago. Since then it’s been subject to a 5cyl 20V Turbo swap from a Fiat Coupe. Existential life crisis. Too many other projects and the realisation that I’m not getting any younger forces reluct...

I’ve been in touch with Bob wright and if i can get pair to him he’ll make a pair of moulds. So they can then be reproduced to o...

That’s a shame. Back in our day. That would be simple fixer upper. We used to get fun from touring the local beakers for the bits and then fixing it up and learning about cars. Sadly too many youngsters these days don’t have either the desire or see any value in getting their hands dirty. I always g...

I think that’s one for Kev or Shrew. I know that they’re not out to “name or shame” anyone. I stated this thread as a way of raising awareness of the financial burden Kev and Shrew have shared over the years on our behalf. I’m just hoping that by doing this peeps will feel the forum is worthy of a l...

Hi Kev. Thanks you for clarifying the situation. As I mentioned in one of my replies. This forum is not and never was meant to be run as a business but more of a fun and hopefully friendly place for us to share our various Alfa experiences. It’s only seems fair that we all start to carry some of the...

Dave. Im sure Adverts have been considered. However I understand that we’d rather not go down that route. I presume a website with constantly changing pop ups would take up more server space and hence may actually increase costs. Also I Personally hate websites that get swamped by pop up adverts eve...

£20.+pp

Thanks for the input guys. Our forum is indeed a most valuable resource. Of course you’re always going to get some who don’t want to pay and I’m personally not in favour of a formal membership model. As previously mentioned that brings a whole other set of admin problems. We have 550 members but tha...

Thank you Craig every bit helps. At the end of the day that all we’re asking for. No one is trying get rich from the forum. The idea is it’s run by Alfisti for Alfisti. I’ve tried to help in the past with funds from the sale of some parts being paid to Shrew. And I’m not out to make anyone feel bad....

Hi Dave. I don’t know the actual numbers. But I understand they’re quite modest at a monthly level and I don’t think we actually need to know the fine details or costs. What I’m trying to start here is a healthy discussion about a future funding model understandably we want to avoid official members...

Hi Guys. I think it’s about time we tackle the “elephant in the room” and have serious discussion about the future of the forum. Mainly funding. It’s becoming obvious that the financial burden on Kev and Shrew is really not fair. Especially in the current economic climate. The main problem appears t...

Hi guys. All I can add is a massive thank you from us all. Our forum is not just a meeting place for like minded Alfisti. It really feels like a family and I love being able to help with technical advice when possible. I have tried to help with small amounts from time. Shrew. can I suggest you set o...

Here we have a NOS engine radiator fan shroud for an Alfasud. This is a steel shroud as fitted to the earlier cars before they switched to plastic ones. IMG_1097.jpeg IMG_1098.jpeg It is NOS and still has its part number label although it’s difficult to to read. Even though it’s NOS It would benefit...

Here we have an original hot air collection shroud as fitted to Alfetta, Giulietta These are Fitted to the exhaust manifold and linked to the Airbox with a pipe across the cam cover (see picture). These are hard to find now as they usually totally rust away. Or at least rust around the mounting hole...

No problem Richard. Leave it with me. I’ll dig something out on Monday for you

Hi Richard. I’ve probably got some in my
“big bag of valves”. I’ve also got a load of heads from various engines. So I’m sure I can help. I’m away till Sunday eve I’ll dig through and let you know

You’re welcome ade. I thought I’d post it in case it helped anyone else out. Remember that the Sud doesn’t use a heater valve. The coolant constantly runs through the core. All heat and distribution is controlled by flaps

For anyone suffering from “Heater control confusion”. When putting your Sud back together.

Works great on My Android although he is a little paranoid !!

Yeah but like everyone else I’m still waiting for the summer to come back.

Thanks Ade. I’m Well chuffed. Trevor the tester even complimented me on the general condition of the car.
