I love vintage pics, and those ones are so cool!
Was cruising behind a 4C yesterday and honestly the exhaust sounded like shit. I expected it to be like a Fiat 500 Abarth but much better, but it sounded horrible. Like a fart can... not sure if its like that with the OEM parts or they had modified it, but yea....
In other news, "Beverly Hills" Car Club always has an interesting collection of rust buckets, but sometimes they get something cool.
I think this is cool

Max Banks of Alfaholics has some of the most respected suspension modifications for 105 chassis cars. Changes the roll centers, etc. They've done a lot of testing and research and have it pretty dialed. A 105 handles best (on a race track) with the butt down a bit - I think it looks odd, but they know what they're doing.

Much of my knowledge of how important roll center and suspension geometry came from reading a pretty epic thread that Max did probably 9 years ago that was posted on the AlfaBB. Its very interesting how the brits set a car up as compared to the Americans. The softer British setup which tends to be a little softer, but is faster everywhere except a dry glass smooth course. That seems to be the only place the super stiff American setup was faster.

would you get the stage 2 or 3? i saw on the web site that you can also get a power steering upgrade kit. these cars are so light. i can't imagine needing that?
i suppose my dream alfa is still a rust free gtv body with a 24v 164 engine and suspension parts like listed above.sigpic
