BIBA RESTORATIONS
'67 ALFA SPIDER VINTAGE RACE CAR PREP |
|
|
 |
This
'67 Spider had been converted to a race car early in its life.
It had suffered the usual dings and bangs (slings and arrows?)
before it came to Biba Restorations. |
|
Some progress had been achieved,
but there was much which needed completing before it could become
a viable vintage racer.
Considerable detail
work, both 'in house', and using outside resources resulted in
being accepted by the local vintage racing association tech on
its first inspection.

There
are purists and there are those who want to achieve all they
can out of their cars.
Most time trial / racing clubs bump the driver / car up to the
next class if it is modified or going too fast for its class.
Biba Restorations welcomes building a car to the owner's specifications
based on this system. |
