Alfa Parts

[TRMark]

Can anyone point me in right direction? I am cleaning my shop and have some old Alfa 750 series engine parts and a transmission. The engine was removed from an old Sports Racer I purchased in the 60's. The block was cracked so I installed a 1600 Alfa.

What are you wanting to do? Fix the motor, get another car for it, or get rid of it?

It's always good to have a goal!

I wasn't very clear in the post. I want to sell the Alfa 750 series parts, they have been laying aound my shop for about 30 years. I can probably post the stuff on Ebay if I have to. The old sports racer is going to be rebuilt this year. I installed the 1600 in it 30 years ago. I autocrossed it until about 10 years ago. I am going to overhaul the 1600, redo the cars chassis and weld up the tears in the aluminum body. Then I'm going to autocross it again.

Try here...

https://www.alfabb.com

in the "parts for sale" section. Someone should snatch them up pretty quick, or at least contact you about them.

Doc may chime in soon - he knows of a couple better boards I don't know of yet.

heh.. A friend stopped over (Norton Commando owner) and we commenced solving world problems and bench racing for the entire evening... there was beer involved too. And some Dago Red wine when the beer ran out. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cheers.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thirsty.gif

I did quite a few years ago and in the car I am going to restore. I still help with the setup and timing at the event. The problem is the road has deteriorated and is very rough; to rough for anything I own, cept the Siverado. The city has shown no interest in repairing it unless they are allowed to close it to motorized vehicles. (I could rant about this) The event is now sanctioned by the NW Hillclimb Association. The BOHC dates back to the 50's. Some of the old timers have some neat pictures of the early entrants.

Have you run the hill?

I've a 1600 in bits ATM here at the hovel. Not sure what to do with it tho. And a tired 2L on a cart.

Norton Commando rider - can't be a bad guy, Doc...you're "friending up the food chain" aren't cha?

 

[AngliaGT]

Never ran the Otter.Was in Billings the week of the hillclimb,but forgot it was being held.Brain fade.
My Brother-in-Law lives in Harlowton,so I thought I could talk my Wife into going there.I DONT like the name of "TR-
-Corner",though.
I've run Lord Ellis,Keno,Mary's Peak,& help start Hoopa-
-I held the record there for a little while.Do any of those name ring a bell?
I'd like to try the Otter,if they ever get it repaved.
Let me know if this happens.

Fellow photog, known eachother for nearly 20 years now. We'll get together sporadically and an impromptu pi**-up is the usual outcome... His Norton is currently in as many pieces as it's possible to make from one. He started his rebuild at about the same time I started the B, now to the "powder coat or paint the frame" decision, transmission refresh, so we're right on schedule. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazyeyes.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Doug, I am not familiar with the climbs you mentioned. I help out with the BOHC because many of my friends and fellow SCCA members are involved with it. If the hill is repaved it will become very popular again, it is quite a ride and more than a little wild. Email me the next time you come to Montana.

 

[AngliaGT]

Will do.
I still have a business card from the BAP/Geon parts store
in East Billings.Had to keep it,because there's an illustration of a TR6 on it.
