As a former 33 owner, nice to see those 2 videos. Brought back many fond (and not so fond) memories about the daily enjoyments and challenges with a 80s/90s Alfa.
non capiro' mai la gente che lascia delle auto perfettamente funzionanti, senza problemi di alcun tipo, a marcire, per fortuna ci sono persone come te ce le salvi dall'oblio!
@@iachi73 purtroppo confermo, Alfa navigava in un periodo di crisi le carrozzeria nn avevano un processo di zincatura.. sn salito su una 33 Imola molte volte ed era un emozione e il sound 😱😱, purtroppo vari problemi di carrozzeria Alfa ed impianti eletrico
This is the perfect car repair video for me. And not only because it features a vintage Alfa, but because of the filming and editing. This guy understands that the car is the star, so he stays out of the video... too many UA-camrs are 'Hey guys, it's all about me, me, me, it's all about ME' - but not this guy. There is also no hand-held jerky camerawork, the camera is set down. And the editing is perfect too, showing us only the very crucial and interesting parts, speeding up when necessary and moving the progress along nicely. THIS is how it should be done. Liked & subscribed.
Thank you so much for the compliments! I really appreciate it. I'm glad you noticed these details while watching the video, as that's exactly my goal: to make the car or the object in the video the true star, without music or voiceover. For anyone wanting more information, they just need to turn on subtitles; otherwise, it's only natural sounds
@@sheldorfhayabusa1939 only the Diesel version consistently runs on 3 cylinders. I'd love to test drive one of those, which are very rare outside Italy as I understand.
One of the best videos on renovation I've seen, though I'm no expert. Very enjoyable and so nice to see another 33 saved. Now almost finished part 2 and feeling a little emotional.
È interessante scoprire ed imparare come tenere le vecchie glorie in forma! La cosa più bella che ci mostri è quanto siano resistenti, tenaci ed "orgoglise" le auto d'epoca.
IL RISPETTO E L'OMAGGIO X LE Fatiche di centinaia di operai che hanno costruito questi mezzi *AUTO VERE DI METALLO cn una tradizione* NON LE ODIERNE TUTTE ORRRRRENDE auto SIMIL/CINO-COREAN-JAPONESI "le TUTTAPLASTICA E LUCETTE LED tenute assieme cn viti autofilettanti e colla!
Bel video anche se secondo me chi non ha sostituito le cinghie di distruzione sapeva che probabilmente non erano vecchie o per lo meno nn avevano molta strada e comunque é stato un rischio accenderla così. Ottimo lavoro ma andrebbe fatto ancora tantissimo e per farla rifiorire ci vorrà un lavoro immane ad ogni modo non credo che gli facciano tutta questa mole di lavoro. Da notare questa Imola senza il servosterzo cosa che probabilmente succedeva in Italia sono con la prima serie Imola (qualche esemplare poteva venire fuori senza l'optional servosterzo). Ad ogni modo bel video e complimenti per il lavoro espletato.
Always liked the 33, i had the 146 1.3 boxer, the only car i ever truly loved. the old Alfas are not as unreliable as people make out. Mine always got me home.
The noise you hear at startup is not a connecting rod or connecting rod bearing; it’s the oil that hadn't yet reached the hydraulic lifters. Once the oil got to them, the engine started running smoothly
My folks bought a new red 16v 33 in 1990 when they came out. Not a bad car but a great engine in search of a better chassis. The best all rounder was the 1.5ie on 165 tyres, not as fast of course but a much nicer car to drive and more like the old Sud in character.
I remember as a teen salivating over a 1.7i someone had in my town. Nowadays my daily hack is a dog eared high mileage 147. Fabulous on the road, i can't find a modern fwd with the same feeling. I'd better get a good example while they are still around.
Klasse , ich hatte von 1990-1993 einen 1987 Alfa Romeo 33 Quattrofoglio Verde mit 115 PS .Das war die reinste Rakete, und der Boxer Sound war phantastisch. Möchte ich wiederhaben Gruß Ed
A man after my own heart. It doesn’t matter the cars age a professional with a passion for automotive engineering will always bring it back to life. It deserves it, you’ve a great workshop and I e learnt a few tricks from this video, the piston removal on the rear drum and the application of heat to the faded bumpers. ❤ very nice work indeed
The video ends here because unfortunately I don’t have an indoor space to restore it, and it would take too much time to carry on with the restoration and complete the video
@@Ego.Reficio aha. And what about the indoor space where the 33 was standing in, next to the old car? So, actually you need to build or rent an indoor space. But keep the car because you might have some indoor space once. I have space for many cars. Once I went with my 33 from the Netherlands to Venezia, then to Pisa over the Appenijnen mountains, and via non Autostrada but via the road SS1 al the way to St. Tropez. Three weeks holiday with my brother. It was very nice. I know a guy in the Netherlands who has about 10.000m2 of only Alfa Romeo parts. My eyes almost dropped out because of the amount of spare parts. And 50 Alfa's. I have his name and telephone number if you want it. But keep the car. Time will come. They are more scarce/rare than Alfa Suds nowadays.
You had a great trip; it must have been wonderful! I also enjoy driving classic cars. Recently, I’ve been using a Lancia Ardea, the one you see at the end of the radio restoration video on my channel.The car isn’t mine. I’ll try to convince the owner to keep it and perhaps find a covered space. In the Netherlands, there are several collectors with many cars. In particular, I know that they really appreciate classic Lancias.
the poor thing is so rusty, i don't think there is any way forward for it, unfortunately. With all this amazing work he did in the video, I could not help but think to myself all the time that this was like a grand day out for a terminally ill cancer patient... Sad.
Ne ho visti tanti di video su questo argomento. Questo è quello che meglio rispecchia le mie paranoie sulla delicatezza dell'operazione di riavvio dopo molti anni. E poi vedo anche un bel lavoro di recupero sui componenti dei freni che odora di vero restauro. Naturalmente so bene che non è tutto liscio come viene mostrato (bulloni grippati, filettature spanate, pezzi introvabili,...) ma rende bene l'idea su come va fatto e come si può recuperare un'auto. Grazie grazie
Be mi è piaciuto il fatto di dedicare il tempo ai vari e piccoli dettagli di lucidatura plastiche, lavaggio e sostituzione spazzola quando hai buco enorme di ruggine sul portellone e le Prese d’aria sul parabrezza 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Comunque bel video spero riuscirai a farla tornare come un tempo buona fortuna 👋🏻
My philosophy is to take care of and make the best of what you have. If there are seats to clean and plastics to polish, I’ll do it, doesn’t matter if half the rear of the car is missing 😂😂
The noise heard at the first start was due to the hydraulic lifter that hadn't yet been reached and filled with oil. Once the oil reached the head, the engine started running well
Avresti dovuto controllare e sostituire le cinghie di distribuzione. È stato un grosdo rischio avviare il motore dopo tanti anni di fermo. Comunque grande lavoro, complimenti
E infatti se ascolti i cicli di compressione, all'inizio dei tentativi erano corretti, poi ha cominciato a mancare un cilindro (che sfiatava dall'aspirazione). O è rimasta una valvola piantata aperta o ha scavallato o rotto una delle cinghie di distribuzione. In ogni caso, motore kaputt (il frastuono di valvola contro pistone appena è partita era agghiacciante).
@fabioiarossi6636 Si, hai ragione, ma la sostituzione delle cinghie di distribuzione sarebbe stata molto più impegnativa per quanto riguarda la sostituzione e le attrezzature, e più lunga a livello di tempo
@MarcoBragotto Mi sembra che tu non abbia visto il proseguo da quando si sente il rumore delle punterie. E' vero, sarebbe stato meglio fare molti più giri con motore senza candele per far arrivare l'olio alle punterie essendo idrauliche, ma non penso che tu abbia idea di cosa significhi avere una cinghia di distribuzione rotta a questo punto. Una volta arrivato l'olio alle punterie il motore ha iniziato a girare perfettamente, cosa impossibile con anche un solo dente scavallato e quindi con una bancata fuori fase
you deserve so many views and subs, the video besides some audio parts is on top of the genre in my opinion, who knows if someone after seeing this car might choose to save it
Thank you for the compliments and the good wishes! Unfortunately, towards the end of the recordings, the microphone started having issues, and I noticed it too late
Complimenti per il restauro! Oltre alle già citate cinghie, avrei evitato le candele Lodge ed avrei cambiato il cilindretto della frizione(una delle prime cose che si rompe sulle 33 che rimangono ferme)
NOW how satisfying it is watching this video, After a day of work, Sipping a Bailey's on my sofa whilst outside, BERGEN -Norway there is a thunderstorm...; Really enjoyed n' GREAT job lads" The Vintage Vespa Piaggio scooter? In the video? A velvety touch of CLASS, Spot On. Alfa Romeo cars , Unfortunately have never been that popular here in Norway - Think there was/is a Stigma attached to them like" They Rust, And pathetic on the electric side, But Great engine, Sporty nice design, But rot easily" especially if living seaside town and snow...Now just 32 years old, I like Alfa's " Never drove one", Especially the ALFA THEMA" Ferrari" - Alfa's like Marmite " Either You ❤ It" The Alfisti..., Will buy , ❤ N' drive only Alfa Romeo, Or like most Norwegians, Hate it" Designed by "Pininfarina, What a car 40 yrs. Old, The Alfa 164, Looks superb. Great Big job there in the Video, Hats off N Respects🇸🇯🐺
I'm glad you enjoyed the video and that you noticed and appreciated the Vespa part. From the way you described the moment you watched the video, I imagined a true moment of relaxation just for yourself. I have to admit, I envied you! As for the Alfas, those from the 90s were a bit problematic, but it must be said that they still retained their originality with their design and driving fun
Thank you! Unfortunately, there won’t be a third part, because the next step would be the restoration and I don’t have covered space and it would also take too much time to do a restoration and make a video about it
You had to put a little oil into the combustion chamber through the spark plugs and move the wheel manually so that the wall of the combustion chambers would not be damaged.
Félicitations.. .très bonne vidéo ..c'est du très bon travail mécanique a l'ancienne moindre coup remise en état.. et beaucoup heures de travail , travail sérieux et méthodique ..Bravo...merci pour le partage.. .👍☺
I Owen a buttermilk coloured 33 1.5 ti it went like stink but had a bad habit of leaking oil from the front camshaft seal had ti's replaced twice in five years sold it to a lad who then promptly crash it and wrote it off such a shame .it was a fast car and my wife learned to drive in it 😊😊
The video ends here because I don’t have an indoor space to restore it, and it would take too much time to carry on with the restoration and complete the video
Love how you pried out the wire connector clip, and broke it instead of squeezing it (you're supposed to press the metal clip IN to remove it...) lol...
Another user told me the same thing; I didn’t know you had to press it. By making the mistake, I learned something new! The connector didn’t break; it was just the metal clip that came loose. Once removed, the clip flew away, and I never found it again, haha
I'm sorry, but I didn't remove the oil filler cap for the transmission. I was supposed to do it but I forgot! Anyway, I think it’s a 17 mm socket. When you lie down underneath to unscrew it, bring a 13 mm and a 19 mm wrench just to be safe 😂. Let me know how it goes!
very great good engineer. I wish I could take the whole car apart and bring it back to 90% original like new! I will do that in the next clip. I will follow you.
Unfortunately, I can't do it because I don't have an indoor space to carry out a full restoration, and at the moment, making such a video would take too much time.
A tip. You should always rotate the wheel barrel when torque it. Otherwise, you shorten the life span very much. 😅 I love this video. I love looking at you when you work like the professional you obviously are. ❤ Forza Alfa Romeo
Nice seeing one that’s not turned into red dust. Granted, it needs some rust repair, but up here in the Nordic countries, these otherwise great cars rusted away in a few years.
For this car, the problem was the proximity to the sea, so the saltiness. In Nordic countries, the main issue is the salt on the roads that causes them to rust
True about the salty roads. The real problem though, was the absolute absence of rust prevention from the factory. Many of them had beginning rust issues allready at the dealership.
superbe vidéo , j'ai également possédé une 33 , néanmoins ; il aurait pu enlever la rouille a l'aide de produits spécifique pour cette usage .et surtout ne jamais laver au jet le compartiment moteur avant d'avoir protégé les accéssoires semsible a l'eau , comme l'alternateur .
Thank you! There's not much to be done about the rust; the car is very compromised and needs entire panels replaced. You're right about the engine bay, but it's more important to protect the ECU and its connectors than the alternator. It's not as sensitive to water as one might think
Ciao .mi sono appena iscritto al canale, mi sai dire che fine Farà questa 33 dopo essere stata salvata dell'oblio?? Marcira' da qualche altra parte? 😮🖐
Thank you for doing an Alfa 33, underrated car in its day, it was my 1st car so I maybe bias, I’m obsessed with finding and buying a U.K. spec right hand car again but unfortunately lack the talent to properly restore one and our climate is a killer of them, will watch out for your future projects, what though has happened to this car since?
What happened to your 33? Did you sell it? I don't know the full story of this Alfa because it’s not mine. I only know that it was used until the early 2000s, then parked near a coastal area. From there, time and the salt air did the rest
@@Ego.Reficio The rain and salt literally dissolved the car, eventually it was used as spare for other Alfa 33 projects by people, there are only 2 left on British roads that I can see now, if I can find a U.K. car I think I will eventually go to Italy, Spain or Portugal to get a left hand drive car to restore, people’s opinion of the 33 in Britain seems to be not good due to the rust issue and people believing it’s not a real Alfa.
I understand. It’s a shame about yours. Don’t pay attention to what people say; if you like that car and have memories associated with it, like it being your first car, buy it! Sooner or later, one with right-hand drive will come up for sale
I'm hoping you are going to continue working on this old girl and address some of the rust issues? Could I suggest the back panel and front windscreen be the next port of call? Please share more of this car with us!
Unfortunately, for now, the video ends here because I don’t have an indoor space where I can carry out a full restoration. At least for now, I can't continue
@@Ego.Reficiothe body work would be very costly, more than her actual value...rust has eaten her badly. I appreciated anyway your video, it was fun to watch also the engine coming into life.
Everything you've described is correct for an even more thorough inspection. The car's bodywork is in poor condition, and I'm not sure if a full restoration would be worth it. As for the speedometer, I only noticed it wasn’t working while driving; otherwise, I would have tried to fix it, but by then, it was too late 😂
You are lucky with this wonderful amazing Alfa Romeo am so gales because s m am an lancia Fiat Alfa Romeo man I love these cars they are the best ever 👍👍👍👍 and sports car God bless you man 🙏🙏🙏 keep contenw doing what you doing ❤️💖 l IHOP I see more votes like this one take care of yourself and drive safe God bless you and be with you all the time ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏❤️🙏🙏🙏

Alfa Romeo cars , Unfortunately have never been that popular here in Norway - Think there was/is a Stigma attached to them like" They Rust, And pathetic on the electric side, But Great engine, Sporty nice design, But rot easily" especially if living seaside town and snow...Now just 32 years old, I like Alfa's " Never drove one", Especially the ALFA THEMA" Ferrari" - Alfa's like Marmite " Either You ❤ It" The Alfisti..., Will buy , ❤ N' drive only Alfa Romeo, Or like most Norwegians, Hate it" Designed by "Pininfarina, What a car 40 yrs. Old, The Alfa 164, Looks superb. Great Big job there in the Video, Hats off N Respects🇸🇯🐺
I'm glad you enjoyed the video and that you noticed and appreciated the Vespa part. From the way you described the moment you watched the video, I imagined a true moment of relaxation just for yourself. I have to admit, I envied you! As for the Alfas, those from the 90s were a bit problematic, but it must be said that they still retained their originality with their design and driving fun
Great work, I hope the car will be driven from now on!
The car isn’t mine. I just hope the owner puts it under cover 😉
Thank you for a very satisfying video. Specially when oiling the oil filter seal or wiping the AR badge! 😂
Thabk you! ❤️
C’mon ALFA🍀🤍💔
Nice armygreen Squadra Corse overalls too😎🔝
Vous avez sauvé cette Alfa 33 Imola deuxième génération, félicitations 👍👍👍
Thank you!
You must have the patience of a saint, the car looked in fairly bad condition, the rust bug had a good hold but you hung in there!
Thank you! 😂
Vejo os teu videos e acredita que és uma máquina. Parabéns. Abraço de Portugal
Thank you! ❤️😂
La devi salvare! Non è un'auto destinata a marcire. Ti darà soddisfazione, garantito.👍📽️
Per il momento non posso fare un restauro completo dell'auto perchè non ho uno spazio al chiuso per fare un restauro completo dell'auto, purtroppo
@Ego.Reficio la venderesti?
L'auto non è mia, ma il proprietario per il momento non è intenzionata a vederla
Liebe die Alfas der 90er Hatte selbst zwei 75er Servus Tom
i want to see a third part!! great job
Thank you! Unfortunately, there won’t be a third part, because the next step would be the restoration and I don’t have covered space and it would also take too much time to do a restoration and make a video about it
Menuda limpieza y mecánica, a full 😱😱
You had to put a little oil into the combustion chamber through the spark plugs and move the wheel manually so that the wall of the combustion chambers would not be damaged.
I used some WD-40, not sure if you saw it in the video
@@Ego.Reficio I hadn't noticed that. Your work is incredible Good luck to you my brother.🙌
Que carrinho legal adoro esses vídeos de resgate saudações do Brasil 👏🤜🤛
Thank you! 👏
Slt c'est cool j'en avais une 1.3l type 907A3 je m'en rappelle encore 👍👍👍👍
Perfect! Little spot on the rear hatch but that’ll buff out
😂😂
Félicitations.. .très bonne vidéo ..c'est du très bon travail mécanique a l'ancienne moindre coup remise en état.. et beaucoup heures de travail , travail sérieux et méthodique ..Bravo...merci pour le partage.. .👍☺
Thank you! Thank you for watching the video!
I Owen a buttermilk coloured 33 1.5 ti it went like stink but had a bad habit of leaking oil from the front camshaft seal had ti's replaced twice in five years sold it to a lad who then promptly crash it and wrote it off such a shame .it was a fast car and my wife learned to drive in it 😊😊
Complimenti continua
The video ends here because I don’t have an indoor space to restore it, and it would take too much time to carry on with the restoration and complete the video
Great video!!
Thank you!
Love how you pried out the wire connector clip, and broke it instead of squeezing it (you're supposed to press the metal clip IN to remove it...) lol...
Another user told me the same thing; I didn’t know you had to press it. By making the mistake, I learned something new! The connector didn’t break; it was just the metal clip that came loose. Once removed, the clip flew away, and I never found it again, haha

Hi Again My Friend, I've Got to change the Gear Box Oil in the 33 and wondering What size Allen Key is it Again, Sorry! ❓
I'm sorry, but I didn't remove the oil filler cap for the transmission. I was supposed to do it but I forgot! Anyway, I think it’s a 17 mm socket. When you lie down underneath to unscrew it, bring a 13 mm and a 19 mm wrench just to be safe 😂. Let me know how it goes!
Looking forward to more older Italian cars on this channel :)
I already have an almost fully shot video of a Campagnola. But first, I need to finish the second part of the bike engine 😉
Super, what do you use to glue the brake shoes back on with?
It's a glue I had; I don't remember the brand, as I lost the label
"i'd rather not go too fast" the car was going flat out firing on 3 cylinders 🙂
Alfa 33 … my first love 😍😍😍😍
❤️
Most satisfying to see an almost ruined car being brought back to life in a thoroughly pro.way.👍
Thank you!

Doesn't he hear the fuel pump cannot initially deliver enough fuel or build up pressure......,?
Yes, the fuel pump was very noisy, but it was able to provide the right pressure for starting and during the road test
very great good engineer. I wish I could take the whole car apart and bring it back to 90% original like new! I will do that in the next clip. I will follow you.
Unfortunately, I can't do it because I don't have an indoor space to carry out a full restoration, and at the moment, making such a video would take too much time.
Loved my 33... and then it fell apart and I upgraded to a 75...
A tip. You should always rotate the wheel barrel when torque it. Otherwise, you shorten the life span very much. 😅 I love this video. I love looking at you when you work like the professional you obviously are. ❤ Forza Alfa Romeo
You're right, I hadn't thought of that! Every piece of advice is always welcome 😉. Thanks for the compliments ❤
Nice seeing one that’s not turned into red dust. Granted, it needs some rust repair, but up here in the Nordic countries, these otherwise great cars rusted away in a few years.
For this car, the problem was the proximity to the sea, so the saltiness. In Nordic countries, the main issue is the salt on the roads that causes them to rust
True about the salty roads. The real problem though, was the absolute absence of rust prevention from the factory. Many of them had beginning rust issues allready at the dealership.
superbe vidéo , j'ai également possédé une 33 , néanmoins ; il aurait pu enlever la rouille a l'aide de produits spécifique pour cette usage .et surtout ne jamais laver au jet le compartiment moteur avant d'avoir protégé les accéssoires semsible a l'eau , comme l'alternateur .
Thank you! There's not much to be done about the rust; the car is very compromised and needs entire panels replaced. You're right about the engine bay, but it's more important to protect the ECU and its connectors than the alternator. It's not as sensitive to water as one might think
No hay nada como un Alfa Romeo!!!
Great video! Are there any plans for it?
Thank you! The car isn’t mine; I don’t know what the owner will do with it. I hope at least he will put it in a covered space
Ne ho avuta una identica... Che nostalgia. Grazie e ciao! 👌👌👌👍👍👍💪💪💪💪
That car looks the Titanic man. Basically everything is just rusted.
20 years under the rain...
Ciao .mi sono appena iscritto al canale, mi sai dire che fine Farà questa 33 dopo essere stata salvata dell'oblio?? Marcira' da qualche altra parte? 😮🖐
Thanks for subscribing! I can’t say for sure since the car isn’t mine, but I hope the owner won’t leave it exposed to the elements😅
Thank you for doing an Alfa 33, underrated car in its day, it was my 1st car so I maybe bias, I’m obsessed with finding and buying a U.K. spec right hand car again but unfortunately lack the talent to properly restore one and our climate is a killer of them, will watch out for your future projects, what though has happened to this car since?
What happened to your 33? Did you sell it? I don't know the full story of this Alfa because it’s not mine. I only know that it was used until the early 2000s, then parked near a coastal area. From there, time and the salt air did the rest
@@Ego.Reficio The rain and salt literally dissolved the car, eventually it was used as spare for other Alfa 33 projects by people, there are only 2 left on British roads that I can see now, if I can find a U.K. car I think I will eventually go to Italy, Spain or Portugal to get a left hand drive car to restore, people’s opinion of the 33 in Britain seems to be not good due to the rust issue and people believing it’s not a real Alfa.
I understand. It’s a shame about yours. Don’t pay attention to what people say; if you like that car and have memories associated with it, like it being your first car, buy it! Sooner or later, one with right-hand drive will come up for sale
❤❤❤ greetings from Greece
👋👋
Un Imola, el mío tenía, dirección asistida y aire acondicionado, funcionó 23 años sin dar un problema, son duros, a pesar de la mala fama que tienen.
I'm hoping you are going to continue working on this old girl and address some of the rust issues? Could I suggest the back panel and front windscreen be the next port of call? Please share more of this car with us!
Unfortunately, for now, the video ends here because I don’t have an indoor space where I can carry out a full restoration. At least for now, I can't continue
@@Ego.Reficiothe body work would be very costly, more than her actual value...rust has eaten her badly. I appreciated anyway your video, it was fun to watch also the engine coming into life.
Everything you've described is correct for an even more thorough inspection. The car's bodywork is in poor condition, and I'm not sure if a full restoration would be worth it. As for the speedometer, I only noticed it wasn’t working while driving; otherwise, I would have tried to fix it, but by then, it was too late 😂
You are lucky with this wonderful amazing Alfa Romeo am so gales because s m am an lancia Fiat Alfa Romeo man I love these cars they are the best ever 👍👍👍👍 and sports car God bless you man 🙏🙏🙏 keep contenw doing what you doing ❤️💖 l IHOP I see more votes like this one take care of yourself and drive safe God bless you and be with you all the time ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏❤️🙏🙏🙏
Thank you! ❤️
Sono curioso di vedere come sistemerai la carrozzeria!
(E il quadro strumenti, anche sulla mia non funziona il contachilometri)
Bellissimi video!
Le problème du compteur kilométrique vient d’une fiche dans le compartiment moteur à côté de la batterie
Lascia perdere.
La carrozzeria o il quadro?😅@@maurosantini2603
@marettomoreboolets Unfortunately, I can't do it because I don't have an indoor space to work on it, nor the time to dedicate to restoring it and making a video
@@Ego.Reficio vraiment dommage. peut ètre un jour...
