Nice looking car, Jim are those alum-brake drums? Two of them looked like 356 brakes, guess they were front brakes

Yeah, Danny, that model Alfa came with aluminum drums.
in its time, nothing could touch the Giulietta Veloce, for the $...

No not mine (I wish). Very beautiful job on this one. My dad had Alfas when I was a kid, so I grew up riding in them. I've driven one, it was a Giulietta Spider basket case my dad bought with hopes of restoring, but it was a real nugget... in a bad way.
he just bought an '84 GTV6 and we're slowly working on making it really nice. I cannot wait to get behind the wheel.... always been one of my top 5 favorites.
Cheers,
Jim
