oh nice

white can be a nice colour, could i suggest getting the wheels anthracited/powdercoated. that coupled with your mod's to come = the sex, but powered with jtd goodness

loving the seats, are they alfa 145 momo's? look a bit too square cut for the 145, maybe 147 lusso spec?

Hi not sure what your meaning about the wheels?

any pics to to show what you mean.

The seats are from a 2001 v6 156 the later version,not as mutch creasing in the leather,

Cheers Scotty.

Think he's meaning a white car + anthracite wheel combo.

not the best photoshop in the world, but you get the idea

scottyJTD · Jul 12, 2007

HHHmmmm food for thought,i

But i have kinda set on the idea on the mark 1 grill with a tight silver mesh

I will see ,that Tipo as a Buety

me likes that one.

Cheers Scotty

Spamming your own thread with pics of other peoples cars.

Brava is certainly coming along. Can't wait to see it when it's all finished.

Got bess Angel tuned yesterdy,she is at just over 150bhp, and the first tests of the upprated clutch are so far so good not a hint of slip or judder

If it is still the same next week another 7/8HP will be put on then see how it hadles that?? the figures given with the clutch say it will ?? but we shall see.

She FLIES!!! what a diffrenc,the slight hicup she had at 2600RPM is gone aswell.

So far im a very happy bunny

Cheer scotty

Venters · Oct 28, 2007

Last pic is desktop quality.

Lovely car there. Always had a soft spot for Bravas. Even more so than Bravos!

Quick question though, how much of a pain were the alfa seats to fit? Front seats arent so much of a problem but how did you go about fitting the rears?

scottyJTD · Nov 5, 2007

Hi it's a real pain even for the proffesinal upholsterer,first they had to take the same amount of metal frame from each side of seat and back rest.and cushining.

Thats so they will go in,then cut and restitch the leather so that the line,s are in the place's there meant to be,now the will go in

Then cut/hack/slash the straight solid bar that goes along the back of the orginal seat out,take the head rest holders of ,off that weild that bar into the back at the right hight and weild the head rest holders in the right place's onto the bar,secure the back section to the bar and secure the bottom .

And make a false back to cover it all.

Mines is still not totaly done

and expect to pay all in around or a wee bit over £1000.

If i had known everything that would be involved before i went ahead and baught the intereior, i proberbly woudent have botherd.

But im sure other people will have other idea's as to how to do it.

Cheers Scotty
