    I have a 1988 Alfa Romeo Milano 2.5 busso V6 Automatic! Same color as yours. Greetings from St Louis MO USA! I have posted a couple videos of my car. It has a little over 200,000 miles! It runs, but it now needs a fuel pump. Nice videos of the Alfa's!

    The 75 is literally my dream car! I will own one day a twin spark model! Great save, always worth to save old Alfas

      Pensa che quando ho sostituito la mia 75 1.8 ie con una TS, piuttosto che venderla ho preferito regalare la vecchia ie su internet, col patto di conservazione, piuttosto che venderla (allora valeva 2 milioni di lire, circa).
      Ricevetti richieste anche dal Perù; alla fine è andata a Vicenza. Regalata. Era il 2000.
      Ci sono rimasto un po' male quando, alcuni anni dopo, lui l'ha rivenduta a un ex carabiniere...

    Check distributor (clean contacts inside), spark plug wires and spark plugs. Its definitely running on 2 or maybe 3 cylinders. Very cool find, just be prepared for the state of the body. Hope you can restore it!

    The real question is: how is it possible to abandon an Alfa 75 for 19 years??!
    It's so enjoyable and emotional to drive!

    • @garagedilettante1128

      I guess 19 years ago it was just an ordinary old car… and since it’s an early carburated version, it wasn’t loved by the enthusiasts like V6 or TS

    It's sad to see such neat cars that Alfa Romeo built, and they rust so badly. It would be recommended to remove the spark plugs and spray lubricant in the cylinders to make sure not moving dry rings on the cylinder walls.

      @garagedilettante1128  3 місяці тому +2

      Just like I wrote in video description - the car spent 18 years in the barn and 1 year ago I bought it and transported it to this location.
      And anyway, the grass is not growing under the car due to the lack of sun.

    That Alfa 75 model is 1.6 I'm not mistaken that type of engine is not very powerful I don't restore it it's not convenient if it was a 1.8 at least yes the advice I can give you take it to the dump Alessandro from Rome

      Compared to modern cars, all 75s with any engine, even V6, are slow. I do this for the memories, not for the money.
