Saturday, July 11th
Alfa motorheads, this is your annual chance to get your motor & mechanical questions answered (be they street or race). Paul Glynn and Michael Wrigley have about 70 years of experience focused on Alfas, including every production model (from Giuliettas to Montreals to 164s) as well as GTAs and Type 33 racers. In addition, this has become an annual major club event with other tech heads, parts swap, lunch, and a huge parking lot, usually with 30 or 40 Alfas. So, mark your calendar: Saturday, July 11th, 10:30 am to 1:00 pm (rain date Saturday, July 18th). Note the changed lunch venue below. Paul Glynn, crew of the successful, early Bertone-designed Alfa GTA and GTV Trans-Am racing efforts (by Horst Kwech, Gaston Andrey, and Bert Everett) will host us at his extensive shop in Rowley. Paul has owned Giuliettas, Spider Veloces, Berlinas, Milanos, and other Alfas, and his shop has done regular service work, extensive restorations, and engine rebuilding. He is also a source of used parts for many models. The shop is spacious and often filled with a variety of Alfas; every year something different is going on in terms of rebuilds and restoration. Paul will provide information about the capabilities of high performance Alfa engine rebuilds and transmission rehabs, and Tom Ducibella will be available to show you how to avoid pesky leaks in convertible tops (he owns a '69 Spider and has installed many tops). The event takes place in the scenic north shore area in Rowley, MA, in which many uncongested roads still exist and provide Alfa touring satisfaction. NOTE: This year, lunch will be at Off the Vine Tuscan Grille (pay the cashier) at about 1:15 (Route 1, Rowley, just ¼ mile south of the intersection of Routes 1 and 133. Be sure to sign up with Tom (tom@nanduce.com or
978-921-0125) by Wednesday before the event at the latest. Please do NOT call Glynn Motorsports for event information; you can direct questions and suggestions to Tom. For example, if there is sufficient interest in a particular tech session topic, he will try to make it happen. A parts swap is included. Please abide by the 10:30am – 1pm time window, since the shop may close to join us for lunch. Directions (see button above): Glynn Motorsports is located at 120 Haverhill Street, Rowley, MA 01909. From I-95 take Route 133 East toward Rowley. In three miles, go straight through a traffic light crossing Route 1. Proceed 1.5 mile and turn right at the sign for Glynn Motorsports. Proceed warily (downshift) as you get close, since it’s easy miss. Routes: If you'd like to take more scenic routes on the way in to Glynn Motorsports, try one of these:
