    Hi Gents,

    A friend of mine in South Africa has an "Aladdin's Cave" of a workshop. He restores Italian classics, primarily for export to Europe and the USA. J.L. has an eye for detail and is a gifted craftsman that I would rate up there with R.F. in Germany. Take a look at some of the photos I took yesterday - and believe me, there are more cars than this! :D

    Cheers, MARK

    J.L. Also did a complete restoration of my 1989 Alfa Romeo Spider 2000. The car has only done 1,700 km since the job was completed and is an absolute joy! :D Here are some pictures of my car taken this weekend:

    Wow!
    That looks amazing! Beautiful pics of the 308 gt4. But also beautiful pics of the AR Spider. I used to have the same model and I still miss it every day.

    Enjoy South Africa.

    That's really looking awesome. Superb weather over there. Over it's 5 degrees and completly cloudy :(

    The Alfa is looking very sharp. Driving it must be a blast.
    Great "Aladdin's Cave", must be real fun to be there.
