For the Old Racers....

Postby alaska teardrop » Mon Jun 23, 2014 9:45 pm

    The other day thanks to friend, Mark, owner of the car for the last forty some years, I had the opportunity to spin a couple of laps at the local road racing track in one of my old race cars. It is a 1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spyder that I bought as a teenager & made into a racer. It's now 57 years old, somewhat detuned but otherwise as originally built. But then, this driver is older yet, somewhat detuned but otherwise as originally built. :lol:

Looks like fun! Good job keeping a toy for so long. The only thing I still have after 40 years is my wife, and she is much slower now. :lol:
