Wing for Callaway

Hi again Barry, I did forget to mention, with regard to the wing, it was created using images of the original Callaway by one of the restorers of the GTV-6. His a fiberglass specialist and will also produce the correct hood scoop now that I've purchased a Callaway motor for the car. Getting interest...

Interesting.

Hello Barry, interesting. I did have to read it a few times, but believe I've got the gist of it now. So, more than likely, the wing will be a drag, no pun intended. As for the rims, I picked them up through Charlie di Marco at Serpent Motorsports. The body kit is the GT kit which I went through abs...

Rear wing

Bad timing, I am afraid. I am in NYC for the next three weeks now and the Alfa is at Prestige Interiors in Burbank getting the new headliner and door panels this week. However, it is meant to be back at Wize Guyz Kustoms come Thursday and I will ask them to please snap a few images of the wing in pl...

Rear wing

It has been test mounted, thus the holes drilled in the rear hatchback, but was removed for some final "tweaking" by the fellows at Wize Guyz Kustoms. It actually looks really nice, but as it was built to suit it still needed a bit of sanding here and there to be rid of the odds and sods. ...

Engine work

Just a basic 2.5 motor. It has been rebuilt in total. New radiator, a/c unit, valves, coolant tank, all new as well. I wished to keep the motor as stock as possible, but will likely switch over to K&N filter. A/C unit is all GM as it fits well and puts out a lot of ice cold air. We've been havin...

Thank you.

It is not a standard Alfa colour, as you know, but I really like the lustre of the colour on my Jag so I figured, why not. The rally lamps will come off when the job is complete. They are mounted for the moment to see if the shall conflict with the lighting system. I will only use them in the future...

Hello, newish GTV6 Owner in Los Angels

Hello, I'm Richard A. Williams. I have loved the GTV6 since I first saw them in the mid-80's. I purchased a rust free 1986 model in January and it went right into a ground up restoration. About 80% done now. Great, great site, it has already been a very valuable tool in learning about these wonderfu...
