When is a 1974 GTV really a 1967 GTA is disguise?

Once in a while a project drops into our hands that just blows us away. Our customers always have a vision and sometimes they are kind enough to let us help them bring that vision to life. This project is one of those projects! The project: convert a 1974 Alfa Romeo GTV into a 1967 GTA body style. A total conversion of a steel body to an aluminum body - what a exciting opportunity. As far as we know, this hasn't been done in recent memory? If it has and you happen to have a story about this type of project, please share!

So, now that we know the extent of the project, where do you go about finding all these alumnium body parts. Well, it just so happens our good friends at Alfaholics happen to have just these parts on hand and boy are we relieved to have them as a great source for these and many other parts.

What a radical transformation at this point, and I'm sure most of you are cringing by now. Believe me, we all did, but knew what the car was going to be in the end and moved on. You might notice that there is someone standing on the top of this car! After reinforcing the skeleton of the GTV, the roof was actually rigid enough for someone to stand on it. A simple but effective test of strength! The reinforcement was necessary because the aluminum panels will be riveted on instead of welded, just like a real GTA would have been.
