Not much to say really is there?

No,


But we'll discuss it regardless!


Good find Chris, i need a decent calendar. Did you buy it and what graces the other months?

[Fiatchris]

No I b**dy well didn't! wrecking a decent Alfa to make a kit car and then some muppet sticks it on a classic car calendar? Disgraceful.

I might be missing the joke here you two but the car on the calendar is a proper Alfa - An Alfa 4R Zagato of around 1966!

It was made as a homage to the 6c 1750 (pre war) and I think only around 100 were made. Worth quite a bit now as they're rare and drive well as they're based on the 105 series 1750 range.

Hi Ted

I thought it was the fact that its placed on a Boyes quid calendar, but you have me thinking again now!

[Fiatchris]

OOPS! Sorry! I thought it was a Marlin kit car or something! Ive never heard of the Zagato!!! Is it like a Panther/Excalibur sort of thing? Happy to stand corrected.... I blame it on my scarred youth with my dad owning a Ford Cortina based Spartan .... Yuck.

Ha ha!

Are you rushing back to boyes to grab one now Chris?


I'm with you on these earlier models, quite in the dark really, and although Ted is still a mere whippersnapper himself, he certainly knows his classics!

[Fiatchris]

They made Alfa's before Suds???!!!!

Nah. Wind up.

Shrew, you know I'm just an old anorak really!!

How's the hand? Or shouldn't I ask........

Ted

[PETROLHEAD]

Shrew, you know I'm just an old anorak!

Never!



More a comfy old slipper!



As for the hand, I'll update the other thread with the latest from "Grinder Gate!"
