So true, Emil...
And I still regret letting my Giulia Super go. ( which was far from perfect at the time, but now represents what I loved about old Alfas in that period where you could still buy one and modify one while a student).
Fortunately, I can console myself with a Spider.
Saint no more...
I came across this abandoned P1800 a couple of months ago. Needless to say, and after enjoying Nicos posts about his travels and tours in his, I almost shed a tear for the condition this one is in. Keep enjoying yours, Nico! You are most definitely doing...
A real pîty. Sadly, there are a lot of P 1800 in this condition.
Finding one in good shape is not that easy. It took me a good year from the moment I took the decision to hunt one, to the moment I found it. Thanks for the good words, Hermano. Nicolas.
As long as yours is running,
Then the legend of this car will be at ease, dear Nico…. Or should I say Simon??? ;-) Abrazo, Alejandro
LOL, yes, you can. :))))
I take it almost every day, when the weather is ok. Almost 16 000 Kilopmeters in two years! All the best, Hermano. Nico Errrr Simon.
Although it's sad to see this classic is such rough shape...
...it does have a certain attractiveness to it, as is...a certain charm. I spent much of my younger years lusting over vintage sports cars that were financially out of my reach at the time, unless I was willing to accept a little patina and invest a consi...
Funny you mention the other side, Emil
As I too was attracted to how it stood, with all those scars and abuse time has stamped on it. From you yesteryears, did you ever partake in a restoration project? I would be delighted to learn about your experience. All the best, Alex
Alex, I've restored a few of my own cars and...
...helped with a few friend's cars over the years. Of my own cars, my favorites included a '63 Karmann Ghia (my first car), and two classics that I still own, a '64 Porsche 356C coupe that I restored in 2003, and a '78 MGB that used to be my daily driver ...

Pre-restoration and pre-digital cameras Post-restoration, digital camera and a sunny day (and can finally post gallery pics from my phone....oh and hope you like them Damjan, though I think you've seen them several times before :-) ) ...
automotive - gold or eyesore
yes it would have been a good restoration project. a waste of a coupe. best geross
Well, it would require too much work, I fear...
I mean the body... Too sad. Best, Nicolas
What a shame !
At least, the one in my street is in better condition .. : I do wonder when he will start restoration :-) .. Bim
I am with you, Bim
I felt like looking up the owner and towing the car back to Mexico… And then, reality hit me and realized it would be a great pain in the a.. to fulfill the restoration. My solace is that there are people like Nico who cherish theirs immensely. Take care,...
I took a peak, Patrick...
Besides, Nico tainted my eye for spotting these beauties. How are you? Cheers, Alex
Doing good!
Nico really tints a lot of things in a positive light... I'm doing okay. Could always be doing better!
Would love to see...
the driver of that car :) Cheers my friend Still in mess but I'll ship soon ;) Yours D
Funny thing was, Damjan...
That the car was abandoned in that parking lot. It even had some parking tickets on the door and windshield. As for that other thing, please! Don't worry! First things first. Zlonamjernost, D!! Alex
