    Wanted urgently: Alfa six-speed gearbox for Busso engine

    Hi there, some of you will already be aware of my mishap at Auto Italia Brooklands day on Test Hill yesterday.

    Outcome is, I now require a replacement gearbox for my car

    If anyone has a spare, ideally in known-working condition, please do let me know asap.

    Six-speed unit from later 3.0 (or 3.2) 24v engine, with or without Q2 diff.

    When I was ringing around for 5 speed bits, the man at Auto Lusso said they had lots of gearboxes and "best to come and take a look", though I believe trading conditions may have changed

    If there was a stronger version of that, would something else break?

    AutoLusso at Houghton Regis is no longer trading and a lot of stuff was scrapped/weighed in. They tried to have a couple of open days when you could have got bits for not a lot but the bailiffs started getting antsy and closed the doors. A friend of mine barely got out the door with his tools that he was using to help others.

    The Autolusso places at Penrith and Bournemouth are separate businesses and still trading.

    Hi,


    I have a 6 speed box fully rebuilt on a 3.9 final drive and have a brand new Quaife diff if required.

    I also have a 5 speed box rebuilt also.

    PM me if you are interested.




    Cheers.
