I reckon more of a wow. Could be a fun Sunday car with plenty of turbo grunt and it looks cool too. A thumbs up from me.

 

[Almichie]

Fantastic, a lot of effort has gone into that car. Nt to everyone's taste, but I really like it

 

[Felonious Crud]

Agreed. Looks a scream.

 

[CatmanV2]

I'd go for it. I always wanted a V6 version

[mjheathcote]

It's in California!

 

[CatmanV2]

Bah. Not heading there until May

Holy ****, just seen it is actually in the same town as the office of the company we've just acquired.

[dem maser]

[MAF260]

Love it. I'd definitely drive it.

 

[conaero]

[philw696]

You need to hurry up then, C, before some young entrepreneur, freshly minted by the benevolence of your company, gets in before you!

Well, I *am* going to Cost Mesa in May.....

Surely 5 cars would be regarded as extravagant by *anyone* (Why on earth I'm asking this question here is beyond me!)

Bring it back and sell for profit, theres a few that would buy it

Indeed. Sure there would be. Enough profit to cover shipping an hassle is another matter....

Nice, I would change the wheels but that is about all. Off to look at transport costs from California - I wish

It's a bit of a shame that he's sacrificed the rear seats for nothing more than a battery and a couple of relays which could have gone in the boot and kept the car a genuine four-seater which is one of its appeals to me.

Also the lights removed, for cooling presumably, looks a bit gormless.

It looks like it could be a blast to drive but if I was putting that much dosh into a Bertie I think I would go for one of Alfaholics' wonderful machines.

 

[hodroyd]

$29K for a 1974 with bits missing, well somebody might buy it..??

 

[zagatoes30]

$29k would not buy you a lot of Alfaholics bits, might just about buy you a shell ready for restoration. Alfaholics restorations are in the range £40k - £100k or more depending on spec but they are well made and well sorted.

 

[TridentTested]

Good point. I just saw lots of zeros and assumed it was dear. By Alfaholics prices it is indeed cheap!


Still, when I win the lottery I know which one I'd prefer
