I haven’t driven the alfa as much as I used to mainly because everything on it is wore out, I guess that happens when you do nothing but beat on a car lol. Really though all it needs is a bunch of money thrown at it. Right now the biggest issues are
The brakes are not very good
The uniroyal tigerpaws are like 16 years old (don’t ask me how I’m not dead yet)
It leaks inside and out
2nd gear is neither here nor there
the alternator is finicky, well the whole electrical system is finicky, I may end up making my own wiring harness for the car, whether you should find that alarming or amazing I’m not sure.
Yeah so basically my plans are to build it into a very confident backroad rat eventually I want 180hp at the crank and for it to weigh 1800lbs empty. Should be fairly doable but also quite expensive... So I think right now I’m just gonna focus on it making it feel like its not going to fall apart when i go around a corner at a decent speed.

On the upside, only some of those things on the list are really the result of anything you’ve done. # 3, 5 and possibly 4 very well could’ve been in place since it left the factory.

Jeez, that would be the power:weight of my Exocet in an old Alfa. I hope you have room for wider tires ;)

Sloppy shifter or did the 2nd gear synchro take a shit?

What the heck is a tigerpaw? Are those the tires?
