Hi Guys,
Here are a few pics from Spring Alfa Day at Chatham Docks.
Apart from bad weather, crazy queues for entrance tickets and refreshments, £13.50 each to get in!!!, not a bad day. Nice to see Bobber, JohnBoy, Paul, Oggie et al.
Pics show the brace of 33s there, with some spider that had the cheek to park with the proper cars, and Paul and the guys that came in the red s2, reinacting a dance scene from Austin powers, or perhaps wrestling a stainless exhaust apart.
John

The 3 guys drinking red wine that probably own those concourse classics are probably saying ''come any closer with that pipe to our cars you 33 owning scum, and we'll set our mechanics on you when they've finished parking the trailers''!!

Glad someone took some photos. Good to see you all. I apologise if I didn't give my full attention to everyone, but there was too much/too many people for my poor brain to cope with. Coming home was interesting though, as within half a mile of home a motorbike overtaking me managed to pile into the side of a double-decker bus turning right, so I donned a fluorescent jacket and spent half an hour slowing down and directing traffic till the police took over. He suffered a broken leg and was taken away by helicopter!

We overtook a modern Citroen being towed by another car with a rope- very close together, doing about 60mph. If that wasn't bad enough the 'driver' of the towed car had his left hand on the steering wheel, while he leant out of the side window and was frantically using a little ice scraper/squeegee to clear the heavy rain off his screen. So if there was a pile up on the m25 it was probably down to these pricks.
John

| As an ex-33 owner, I also payed a visit to Chatham to get my jab of the Alfa virus. There was a rather nice 1.7 16v P4 loaded with parts, who's car was that? Also, loved the various Sprints and Suds parked in the various locations, some fantastic stuff. |

If it was next to us and white, it was Peter Sharp's, the 4WD system of which I fixed before it was sold to him. Nice car with squadra chip.
And by the way, thanks for the brake mod plate, Johnboy. I think bend the plate short and then lengthen up if need be with washers.

ECU tuning chip like 'supachips'. Raises rev limit etc.
