Italsud, I think it was called.

Thanks! Yes, one and the same, new shop is next level from the old Italsud though!

Those are magnificent cars!

Thanks, they used to do my carbs on my Alfetta back when I still had it.
Lovely car, that was. I still miss driving it.

If you're in Gauteng, join the Alfa Romeo Club South Africa FB page and ask the same questions. Mostly Gauteng guys there. One supplier of old OEM or substitute parts is Glenridge, run by Karl Fabricius. You can also try AK Classics run by Kevin Strapp. I don't know what his number is but I'm sure it is available on Google. Karl also has a WhatsApp group with lots of Alfa owners on.

I will give him a shout, lol, I find the best (real) mechanic's are the grumpiest!

Your Alfa looks superb!
