By most accounts these are extremely troublesome cars!
Alfa GTV 3.0
Ford Capri Perana V8
Chevy Lumina Supercharged

Wait not for tomorrow to do what can be done today, live each day for one knows not what the next day may hold.

Agreed.
I do like them though.

I had two of them, the second I bought for spares as it had brand new tyres on it. They go like the clappers, but unfortunately they rust just as fast as they go. I still have the mags with the new tyres, as well as two new cylinder head gaskets which are absolutely unobtainable.

Really sorry I never completed the build, but my dodgy panel beater allowed it to rust away in his yard.

Thanks for the info.

Funny how a generally accepted unreliable car, can also be liked.
Must still be the cheapest way of owning a car built by an Italian supercar manufacturer.

Well, seeing that Fiat owns Ferrari, you could buy the cheapest Fiat and make that claim as well. :P

I always loved these, saw a maroon one give a good couple of cobra's a hiding around Killarney. It's a good street sleeper.
