Hey guys, I'd like to share a few shots from earlier today at Dubs on Defrost. Some may like it, some may not, but it sure is something different. Owned this car for about 7 years and loved every second of it. Almost have the car looking/running the way i want it to, always a work in progress. Any comments/questions are appreciated!

I saw you dancing with the devil, I tell ya kid you're better off
Playing leap-frog with a unicorn. That's right.

Thanks guys! I installed a QTP exhaust cutout on it last week, so I figured i would open it up and let everyone hear it![]()

Great looking alfa!
Most that I have seen in person dont look nearly as clean
its too bad we never got the awd 6 speed in the states, also with a more powerful v6

Always liked the styling of the 164, glad to see what appears to be a nice clean example still on the road.
Looks good...![]()

Lovely car, my dad drove one for a while, back in the day.
Never run out of real estate, traction, and ideas at the same time

I had a Q4 for about 6 years. I loved it and I hated it but mostly loved it. It had 230 hp but did have a weight penalty. Fantastic awd system.
OP, thanks for keeping yours on the road. I prefer the lower cladding to be body color but it looks great with those wheels anyway.

Dude I was drooling over your car yesterday, I was really impressed. My buddy had a 164 Verde growing up and I was really happy to see such a mint Alfa!
Really nice work man![]()

Lovely car, always liked these after getting smoked by one at the lights in the middle of the night. Sound so good!

came in looking for engine bay pics :-(; I love the car otherwise.

Thanks everyone, and thanks for those shots, they look great! I had the lower cladding painted to match the black, but i have since went back to the original flat charcoal color. I think it looks better this way. I just rebuild they engine last year with some headwork and race cams, waiting to put my megasquirt unit in and tune it. I will post some engine bay pictures up shortly

I hace some pics on my phone from yesterday. Awesome car! Definitely one of the most unique in attendance![]()

Thanks!
There are several parts vendors/warehouses across the country such as international-auto.com, alfissimo.com, and centerlinealfa.com. Or you can always hop on italian, german, or english ebay to find those rare parts.
I have several parts cars and a shed full of parts so it makes things easier
My older brother also has a 164S that we are currently rebuilding. Here is the motor that I rebuilt before it was installed:

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.
