Right about here , in the old days I would have chimmed in with a joke. Something naughty about Mats tools. I think I 'm getting older and wiser... :D

Instead I will be more kind and say, I like the colour of your car Mats. After all, Alfas without red paint are like violins without strings.. :oops:

I'm pretty sure you're gonna beat me to it Ben! I'd love to be driving it in Nov. Drive it for a few months and see what breaks, before doing some trackdays early next year.

I'll have it home this weekend....!

Anyone ever rebuilt GTA Brembos? I wanna clean and paint mine or maybe get them powder coated?

Jules,

The brembos just needs the pistons blown out using compressed air. Blow out piston at a time. Then clean them out, powder coat them and re-install the pistons. Make sure lube the bores and the pistons when re-installing them. I re-furbed my brembo 4-potters, looks great.

BTW, why does your dedion look like it has excessive positive camber?
