    Thumbs up Alfa candy....

    40th anniversary of Santo's Italian Car Service...

    This is a local Alfa service, restoration, and race shop about 3 miles from me....

    The red GTV race car with the yellow nose and red windshield header has been representing the shop in vintage events for years....

    - A visitor in a very nice very early 911.... never found out who owned it...

    Cheers

    Chuck, great to see that you enjoy other marques also. More than once Cris and I found ourselves talking Alfas at R Gruppe events! I haven't owned an Alfa in a while but I still look... and think.

    Thumbs up

    Thanks John....

    I think I've posted this before... but it makes me smile...

    Me and my oldest car buddy Hector cutting Van Nuys High School to go to Willow Springs in '67 ...
    Hector, about 11 years in L.A. from Argentina... with his dad's old world rally helmet...
    In a couple of years that Spider would be mine for about 7 more up on Mulholland ...

    Same two guys, same track, 45 years later with Hector's outrageous GTAm tribute...

    ... and so it goes...

    I love old cars. My love for this kind of machinery was passed down to me from my father, as he owned a car service centre and often had cars like this come to him. From the age of 15, I started to disassemble and reassemble car parts myself, and later I bought a disassembled Ford Mustang to make a perfect car. Now I own a car service centre, and my father is pleased that I followed in his footsteps. The most important thing that distinguishes me from my father is that I am a follower of new technologies and try to apply them in my work. So recently implemented this software https://autoleap.com to make working with clients even more pleasant. I love cars and will never change my mind.
