Hey Dragon,

@johnnynumfiv: Thnx for the compliment.

Oh well......you're never too old to learn. ;)

@:Exige: Thnx for the compliment.
But eh....this one isn't a hothatch.
It's a real sportscoupe designed by italdesign/giugiaro.

It does have a hatch though, and it is surely hot :D

congrats, looks fine, km's up to today? Looks like a dutch original licence plate, always parked "inside"?

Hey Henk,

You've got a point there. :D

Yep, an original dutch car.
Always parked inside.

I even traced the first owner.
shouldn't be too difficult when you are so close to Veendam :D

but anyway, I' ll be on the lookout when i am in the region. Have fun with the car.

Alfist-GTV6
12-20-2004, 08:47 AM
Indeed. ;)

Thnx, i will.
And err....don't look surprised if you see this one together with a silver metallic one.
The silver metallic GTV stands in Ommelanderwijk, owner is Richard Hoogstra.

That looks like a car which someone must have loved alot, the body looks indeed very very "Keihard" and the interior is just as sharp. Did you sold your 33 for it, or do you have 3 Alfa's in your possesion at the moment?

@PoRsChEnUt: Indeed, the previous owner had to sell her, because he bought a Ferrari Mondial.
The 33 is shamefully R.I.P, she couldn't be saved.
The remains of the good old 33 are at the scrapyard. :(

So this car became kind of her successor. :D

3 cars? i wish! :rolleyes:
Maybe i'll buy another boxer in the future. :o

@QUATTROMAN: Try http://photobucket.com/albums/v419/Alfist-GTV6/GTV6%20-%20Arjan/ if the pics still don't work for you.

@charged: thnx. :cool:

Congrats on the GTV6. Looks in very good shape indeed. Have you got any plans for her, or are you keeping her original? :)

Well......a bit perfectionising.
But no plastic or what so ever.
A bit work on the body (not much, the body is rock-solid)
Maybe lowering the front a bit so that it looks more in harmony with the rear.
Some nice alloys, the campagnolo's will remain with the car ofcourse.

Oh well...we'll see what happens in the future.
