Hey Jason, finally found the car that's you for Easter.
It's got your 105 bits, your V8 power, the fire colours and hot and cold showers built it...

may not handle like your blue one but it wouldn't matter if you couldn't catch it..

Goes to show how difficult it is to mess with the original design and make it better and I am not just talking about the mechanicals..this misguided soul certainly gave it his best shot from a particular perspective but the outcome, well..
....all is not lost, Jason does love his Yank V8s..just tuggin you chain Jason.

Now you all may scoff, in fact you have already scoffed mightly, but that is really only bad 'cause of the hillbilly execution.
If it had been done as a 60's lemans car replica (think 250 gto) instead of a whore's handbag, and maybe an alloy V8 rather than the windsor (which is I think what its got?) then it would have been something nice, instead of a complete and utter travesty...
Still think the big V8 idea works better in a 116 than a 105.

Alfa already did it better- it was called a montreal!
