    Before considering upgrading the A/C blower. Confirm that the motors are getting full voltage. More than likely you will need to modify the wiring with relays. The same is done when upgrading the lighting circuit.

    Yes, we did that before the undertaking of the disassembly of the dash.
    What a job..
    We found a bunch of debris in the fan cages, and were able to replace the older fan motor with a Mercedes motor of the same type but new and bit more power..

    All back together now and have been driving it everyday to work..
    Just an amazing car to drive.
    So easy and quiet, but when you push the peddle down then the magic sounds start to happen.

    I had my Spica, fuel pumps, igintion... checked and restored by Bürgi.

    Quick and very efficient job, from a mechanically point of view.

    But, at that price, I would have considered getting a better cosmetic finish however.

    There were 11 Alfa Montreal's in Montreal, Canada for the 50th Anniversary of the World Expo in 1967 where the car was first unveiled without a name. One of the 3 3.0 Liter Montreal's was there as well along with 1 RHD car. I know, because that was my car, and it started it's life in Australia.

    Beautiful green color! Someone knows if it is an original Montreal color?, what is the factory name and code?, It seems to be the color of the first Montreal presented at the 1970 Geneva Motor Show...

    Nine originally was this colour.

    When I bought it, it was completely re-made in red.

    I've completely restored it and left it in red.
