I made my son an offer for his Alfa he couldn't refuse. (He bought one of those 3-wheel motorcycle thingies). My "collection" now consists of two - the 1971 TR6 and the 1992 Alfa Spider. I'm only 284 cars behind Jay Leno but I'm working on it - except for the $$$. One potential (I hope) problem with the Alfa. It not only has a hood latch cable like the Triumph but cables for the gas filler door and the trunk. However - unlike the TR6, there is no commercially available alternate cables (which probably should have been used in a left hand drive car anyway-I have one and so should every TR6 owner- in fact I never use the stock cable any more), so owners have had to fabricate systems such as nylon fishing line poking out of the hood or cables coming through the fender well. You can get at the gas filler cable by taking off the side panel but the trunk one is apparently tougher. Seems someone should make a cheap kit like the TR kit.
