Aroc magazine.
Great write-up by Lauren in the latest magazine about the Green Machine. However what it couldn't convey was the attention to detail and many photos of the build that we were privileged to see here on our pages. many thanks Lauren.
Re: Aroc magazine.
Awww, shucks 
Not enough space to thank everyone who helped, but Kev gets a name check
As you say, more pictures on this forum than was room for in the magazine. At least the article was printed in its entirely, I was worried it might get... reduced
Hopefully now the "red brigade" won't be so confused when I turn up at an AROC event. I have booked my ticket for NAD, all being well I will see some of you guys there.

Re: Aroc magazine.
Great feature on the Green Machine Lauren.
As Tony pointed out, we have had a lot more info on your journey creating this unique example but credit to you for getting a full nine pages.
Looking forward to seeing you at NAD.

Thanks Kev - we shall see whether the next postbag is full of irate owners of red 105 series GTVs complaining about too much airtime being given to a recycled Alfasud
In the meantime I have the original file and photographs so I can upload it in the kit car section. May have to be in several parts though!

Re: Aroc magazine.
Thanks Keith - I'm looking forward to NAD, but of course having the heart of an Alfa does mean that engine trouble is never far away (I'm nursing a rear crankshaft oil seal leak at the moment). But as long as nothing else goes wrong I should be there!
Re: Aroc magazine.
yes, rear crank seal is a bugger when you also have inboard brakes 
I still have not got around to swapping my new engine in yet. As you may remember when I went up to Scotland the original 1186cc engine was leaking. It is still in the car now, but will come out soon. I have not used the car much in the last few years as it wrecked my brakes and I had to refurb the callipers. In fact she has only been to to NAD last two years as it wasn' t too far a journey.
