Reader submission

Guest contributor Carby shared the following:

Spring has just poked its head out here in Sydney and this suave cat (Sam) parked across the road from me today. I had the camera with me and went over to introduce myself and say ‘nice car’ (always had a spot on my list for a 105 of some description).
He is the original owner, imported it to Australia from Sicily in ’75 (it’s a ’72 GT 2000), paid nearly the price of the car to the local importer to do a LHD->RHD swap (4,000 AUD, new one at the time being 5,000 AUD).

Can’t see how any of us Gen X/Yers could ever be that swank in 40 years cruising in our barn find 997.2’s… only time will tell!

See how that man is dressed? That’s the way you dress to drive a nice car. Not in baggy shorts and Teva sandals. You respect the car.

Guy looks fairly typical of the Alfa Club rank and file. I am always the youngest guy there haha.
