Work have locations in Portland and Tacoma I regularly visit and our son lives in Vancouver BC so frequently visiting our granddaughter too.


    Joules - What color is your car? I was just at LB's in early October and saw a few cars in later build stages...or what looked to be later stages.

    It would be white gel coat and is about to go in for the Alitalia livery application.

    Well, I saw a very nice all white car pretty far along (what do I know though) getting prepped so that's likely your car!

    Stradale brake reservoir question: Is the Alfa GTV / Spider unit the similar to the original? Or should I be chasing down a different solution. And - does anyone know for sure whether this would fit height-wise in a Hawk Classico shell? Thanks in advance....

    That's identical to the Stratos reservoir. I think Gerry has used one in his latest Classico built (Ferrari 308) so I'll check with him and get back to you with an answer. The Stratos also has a tie down strap across the middle of the reservoir.

    Gerry had fitted one to the current Classico build. Picture of the retaining bracket for interest - not sure if he has any in stock at the moment!

    Thanks for confirming Guy. The bracket doesn't seem too hard to duplicate & fab up.
