if i could have found someone who could have sent me a RHD milano rack....the original idea was i wanted it RHD....actualy i could still convert it to RHD fairly quickly and simply.....only take part of a day

the lloyd body comes apart so well you could ship one in a fidge box...the real trick was lopping down the milano platinum to just suspension mounting areas and frame rails, while keeping it straight square and level as well as taking 20 inchs out of it and re-enforcing it along the way

all thats left of the milano sheetmetal/frame...is the rails, shock towers, front and rear suspension mounts, rear shelf above the transaxle, front tunnel from rail to rail...a small amount of firewall and part of the rear wheel wells

on a side note
i had the lloyd/milano on a non certified scale on my trailer..and its currently weighing in at 1600lbs.....and theres not alot of weight left to add

I love how your car, next to the stock Lloyd coupe, is lowered to "european" spec

- so Alfa! She rocks - great job, shorty!

i figured at this point there would be ALOT more love for what id done since you can get a "full picture" of the scope of wha id done

thanx guys

btw that "stock" yellow lloyd is a 4stroke 600cc 19hp at 1200lbs with a top speed of 55-60 and a 0-60 in a lil over 65 seconds...he drove it all the way from vancouver BC to portland oregon for the show

Champion effort there. I imagine you'd get up to speed and just never stop!

But your car is fantastic. It's come such a long way in such a short period of time. I can't wait to see the finished product now!

ROCK ON
