S/ST-S/G Alfa Romeo Spider Roadster

Keith 944 · 04-13-2023, 11:30 AM

I should mention that the Porsche is a ladder bar car, and this one will be a 4link car with a wheel base extension, It should work a lot better. I also need to add that I want this car to be very versatile. Want to be able to bracket race it also, i like the idea of the added visibility and I plan on keeping the windshield. The car is all steel so as not to be a cookie cutter of everyone else’s Corvette roadsters.
These next few pics, I’m sizing up everything and gathering up some parts

I can say Keith has sent me some pics through the build (keeping them Top Secret) and it’s a pretty need car and cool looking!

I love it. I saw a Spider at the Winter Nationals in the late 70s running Modified Production with a VW engine and it was a sight to see. I talked to the owner and he could not figure out why his 60 foot times were bad and i said it looked like he was pulling the wheels past the 60 foot beam.

You certainly have a flair for the unique. That will be a best engineered award winner for sure.

Thank you sir but I’m not sure on that. I thought the Porsche would have gotten an award but home built cars seem to take a back seat to the high dollar builds or at least a best appearing for the 4 different paint jobs over the last 26 years. seems like I get overlooked but I’m not in the clique

Well I was wrong, it seems they did like it after all
Every one except those running super street lmao.
I was awarded with the best engineered award!
Biggest compliment I got was someone thought it was a suncoast car
Not bad for some rednecks with a plan.
