I have been at my brothers garage today to do some more work on the 33 i have weidled up the floor drivers side ,someone previous has pop riveted a plate on so i took that off and cut out the rusty metal and weilded a new plate in.
On inspection it will need new outer cills which im getting off alex.
There are quite a few plates that have been weilded underneat at some point but come winter time im going to cut them all out and do them again properly as previous plates have been done over rust. |

|
|
Hi all since having my alfa 33 the veloce bumpers always looked tatty so i had a good spare set so had them painted and have fitted the front one so far but makes the car look much better.
Plan is to get all the other bits and pieces painted on the car soon as well.
p.s front grille was painted a few weeks ago and i gave the painter at work wrong paintcode that is why it looks more cream then white so will be getting that redone soon .
anyway here are the pics.
collecting them in my honda
old bumper
new bumper

next is to get grille repainted and the little trims below headlights so that should tidy the front end up and then get bonnet done because of stonechips, sideskirts which will be done once i sort the cills out ,n,s,r door as it has a dent and rear spoiler repainting as it needs tidying up as i want to make this car mint.
Best bit is because i work at a accident repair centre i got the bumpers painted very cheap as i get big discount for staff .
this is how it looked when i first got it
and now
getting there slowly . |

It's possible to convert a decent passenger seat into a driver's seat. You probably won't find a decent driver's seat in England.

Well I've got three passenger seats.
These would be driver's seats for left hand drive cars! _________________ Owner's Club 33 Registrar. Now from P4 & S2 1.7 QV

All you need now Pat are 2 little breather filters to go on the end of those pipes that are floating about. Pipercross used to make them. _________________ 155 sportpack

Yeah, looking sweet.
