1980s advert

Posted on August 19th, 2019

I have just come across this advert we did for the AROC magazine back in the late 1980s.

30 years on were still selling the same kind of parts, with Alfetta and GTV6 parts a specialty.

Prop couplings and exhausts still selling well.

the text for the carb mounts is so typical of Davids sense of humor.

Posted on May 2nd, 2019

We are now able to offer a uni-ball adjustable watts linkage kits for Alfetta 116, GTV6 and Alfa 75’s.

The standard linkage uses nylon and rubber bushes that can give excessive movement, so the use of uni-ball rod ends eliminates this. The anodized alloy rods are also left and right hand threaded, so its possible to adjust the length, which is required when lowering the ride height.

The center boss is mounted with roller bearings, and the kit is supplied with all new nuts, bolts and centering spacers.

Cartier Concour d’elgance 2019, Jaipur, India.

Posted on February 26th, 2019

Arjun sent us some photos of his car that just won “best sports car 60’s and 70’s”
at the Cartier Concour d’elgance 2019, in Jaipur, India this weekend.

With stiff competition from two Ferrari’s, two E Types and another lovely 68 Giulia 1750, Arjun’s 1973 2000 GTV came out on top after having an extensive restoration that has taken place over the last five months, with the last part (a hard to find inner door pull) being fitted just two hours before being judged by FIA president Jean Todt.

We have shipped a number of new, old stock and hard to find parts for the restoration, including wheels, exhaust, rubber seals and a host of mechanical rebuild parts, and it was a pleasure to have been able to play our small part in the restoration.

Arjuns owned the car for 29 years, first in the UK and then onto India, and has  EB Spares bills going back to the eighties !
