Classic Motorsports Car Catcher: Alfa Value

Please don't show me these. They really put a strain on my marriage.

Love the ad:

Joe Craigslister said: it does however checks all the boxes one would expect for a 40 year old italian daily driver.... trans leak -- check, oil leak -- check, rattles - check wind noise -- check, squeaks - check cracked dash -- check, easy cold start - not so much tempermental downshift into 3rd - check left turn signal only works when foot is off break - check (fixed this) radio inop - check duct tape - check overspray in engine compartment - check various large parts that should be on the car stored in the trunk - check small interior trim pieces in glovebox - check ice cold air in the winter with windows down - check heat works most of the time - check doors require a healthy slam due to lame aftermarket seals installed by po - check previous owner bubba-esque repairs (ie panels attached with some metric, some sae, some phillips, some slotted fasteners, hideous floorpan repairs) -- check missing dash switch for defrost - check working horn - check little missing rubber pieces that cost $100's and dont really do anything - check costco floormats - check ear to ear grin while driving - check

It makes me want to cry when I look at the values for these now. I sold my '73 GTV for something like $3,500 back in the '90's. I want to say I bought it for $2,000 in '91 or '92. I loved that car.

my 72 I bought for $900(about 1977)... it got rear ended by a plow nosed Impala which crumpled the rear end under the car....

still the least comfortable driving position I've ever had....... also my original inspiration for small twin cam rwd coupes
