I just picked up this 1991 Alfa Romeo 164 5-speed. The body and interior are in great condition, but it needs a new clutch, which arrived today. I'll do the timing belt as well.

Before I read your caption I wanted to write: the classic Alpha way – broken down, and on a trailer ;) But I absolutely love that you are going to restore it, congrats! Awesome car, my neighbour had a red one in the 90ies.

anyone have ppf installed on their cars?

Oh yes. My shop did a fabulous job. The whole car is covered with a film and then ceramic coat over that. Worth it for this car...

I’ve forgotten how much work it is to keep a black car clean! It’s so satisfying when it’s clean though! ❤️ I love this car.

Did a little detail this weekend as well. So satisfying though it doesn't last long on the outside with all this construction around me. Love me some ONR.

My daily driver is a 2015 Corolla S Plus purchased in August of 2015. It has only ~45,000 miles on it as I used to work from home and now only commute a short distance to the train station each day that I'm required to leave the house. The three of us with matching Toytotas keep parking together at the train station. Mine is in the middle.

I also have a 2010 RAM 1500 Laramie purchased in January of 2010 that I like driving a lot more but end up driving even less often. It's hard for me to justify the poor gas mileage unless I need to haul something. It has ~45,000 miles too.

I hope to keep both until they don't go any more haha.
