Hi Bob
Congratualtions on your new buy...
Did you count how many days, hours, minutes, seconds were you without a 33 
Frankly it looks like it is well kept ... Keep us posted on your work
Regards,

Keep you posted??? You'll all be living every second of it like the last two I had!!!
This is slightly different though - good body but a blown engine. This will be a ground-up restoration of sorts... and not a daily driver.
Bob

Wicked!
I knew another 33 was on the cards! That obvious gap in your list of cars- a ha!
Engine weight??? All makes perfect sense now.
How did you justify it to your other half? We're hopefully buying my fathers 156 in the new year, the 33 is going nowhere, but i want to be able to stash the 145 somewhere too, as after doing a bit of work on it, i've grown to love it too.
Cheers,
John

Sorry JT... didn't have time. Too busy hammering my new toy!
With the 0-60 of the GTV, take that LUDICROUS spoiler off the back then! You'll find you need to keep it in the 4k to 6k rev range, otherwise it's sluggish... The GTV is better up hills than the 33 too. (There's no substitute for capacity )
