Kinja'd!!!

Finally went to grab the Alfa out of storage this evening.

The Good: Started and drove like a champ! Man I missed this fucking car!

The Bad: It is pretty much as I’ve left it, a complete mess. Also a fair amounts of dripping on the car and the alternator and/ or voltage gauge was unhappy. Whatever...

It is off to its disastrously expensive rot repair in two weeks. Hopefully I’ll get some work in before then.

What year Spider? Is that a Quadrifoglio? I’m in love!

Thanks! It is an 87 Graduate! First year with the monopod gauges and standard fuses, I think. The Graduate is just a stripped down model, with roll up windows and older style seats and the AC and Radio as dealer options. These days they’d charge you extra for all that weight saving!

Love is a strange thing.
