[Leica] 77 Pininfarina Alfa Romeo "Kamm Tail"

[Craig Schroeder]

Alfa products were always 95% brilliant and 5% "What were thinking, 
Luigi??!!".  I grew up around them as my father's best friend had a 
number of them and raced them.  Our family always had Austin Healey 
3000's and considered them the poor man's Alfa.  Yours proved to be 
dependable which is likely a testament to your restoration more than the 
original engineering.  My dad always said you could tell a Healey owner 
by their scarred and skinned knuckles.  Alfa owners shared this trait 
but also had tomato sauce stains on their shirt....  What lovely 
driving/handling machines, though!
