Sprint GTC

This very rare right hand drive Sprint GTC was found locally and bought for a customer based in Asia. A complete strip down commenced in the late summer whereupon the body was blasted of all paint, filler, rust, underseal and sound deadening. Again, dry ice was used on the more delicate panels. Also, the soft underseal and sound deadening get the ice treatment as they become hard and brittle and break away revealing the undamaged metal beneath so saving hours of removal by hand.
Unfortunately, the shell had had many poor repairs in the past and owing to the unique and largely hand made modifications done at the Touring works in Milan to all GTC’s the best man for the shell restoration was deemed to be John Holden at Pure Bodies. His in depth knowledge of Alfa 105 bodyshell design meant the body would return to the workshop just right. Assembly will begin in Spring 2012.

GIULIA SUPER CORSA

This Giulia Super had seen hard use in the classic racing world over the last twenty years and came in for a full rebuild and repaint. The shell was stripped and blasted which revealed some corrosion to the sills and old repairs done in haste to get to the next race.
Once the bodywork was completed reassembly commenced with a fresh Gripper rear axle, a finely made and beautifully fitting stainless exhaust system from Alfaholics, Lexan side and rear windows, Alfaholics aluminium race tank and up to date safety equipment. Everything else was double checked for serviceability and renewed if thought to be lacking. New dashboard and control box layouts were devised for better visibility and ease of use.
See it race in the new AROC series this season.
