Hello my dearest viewer.
I am not a certified technician. I have a master's degree in economics. I have no experience in filming and editing videos. I work as a performance auditor. English by far is not my native language.
So, I asked myself, am I qualified to make car repair related videos? No.
Can I make a good video? No. But I hope with time I can improve.
And while I'm improving here, if I help at least one person, I'm happy!

First start in 19 years - abandoned Alfa Romeo 75
In this video, we follow the journey of a neglected Alfa Romeo 75 that has been sitting in a barn for 18 years. I bought the car last year and brought it to yard.
After some tinkering and troubleshooting, the moment of truth arrives I attempt to start the engine. With a few cranks and some patience, the Alfa Romeo 75 roars back to life after nearly two decades of silence.

Loved the videos! Very informative. Are you planning on selling the Alfetta?
Thank you! It is currently for sale. But Alfettas are slow sellers. Not expecting to find a buyer fast.

My 2012 RVR (outlander in Canada) is rusting from the inside out. It lives in a garage, no salt on roads, very low mileage. They kept pushing off the repair until they could say it's no longer under warranty. They had a recall to spray the undercarriage for rush protection but say it's unrelated to the paint issue (!!??).
Are your fingers IN FRONT? Or behind?
In front. Making space for moving sunroof
Do you have the link to buy that hose replacement?
I bought it from Autodoc

Happy memories of a car like this.Wonderful engine fine handling, and a gear change which took a little to master.This model was a to be Alfa Romeo last RWD car, the last of the Alfetta family.
Hey there i have the same car with radiodisplay but i don’t have Bluetooth. Do you know any Bluetooth adapters? Thanks
Great video! You’re so handsome too 🥰
Thanks!
The real question is: how is it possible to abandon an Alfa 75 for 19 years??! It's so enjoyable and emotional to drive!
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
When I changed my 1.8 ie for a TS in 2000, I gave it away as a present with the condition that it would be kept on the road and well. He gave me 2 cases of wine, but a few years later he resold it to a former policeman... Fantastic cars; You feel comfortable, connected to the ground, and with an underlying baritone sound.
motor for other restoration and and use. body just scrap and resyclin o
E si è proprio lei,fatto bene a salvarla, quella fu la vera ultima alfa romeo. Ci sara ' parecchio lavoro
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 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...
Altro salvataggio lodevole Bravo 👏 Posseggo una 1.6 carburatori, mi regala sempre un bel sorriso ad ogni giro 🖐
The problem is the Distributor.
Any suggestions what should I do?
I would get some engine mounts, nice car!
so who cut the grass underneath the car in the 19 years...........
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.
Umm, you know grass won’t grow without light, warmth and water, right?
Good bit of fun with an interesting old car, the seat covers just add to the fun!!!
Exactly my thoughts!
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. Cheers!
@@garagedilettante1128ma soprattutto quello che si cerca nelle auto storiche è il piacere di guida tra le curve; nessuno cerca le prestazioni in rettilineo in rettilineo e posso assicurare che anche la 1.6 con i suoi 1080 kg, e qualche upgrade come i Koni sport, pneumatici morbidi, i Weber revisionati e le boccole dei braccetti nuove diventa divertente, sincera, facile, e pure veloce anche rispetto alle moderne

You might want to check the engine oil before starting the engine, rather than afterwards 😉
but I did check it before starting engine...
You might want to watch the video before commenting. It's the second thing he did.
Beautiful car but they rot!

Hello there, friend wanted to ask do you know how to put navigation on an SD card?
What about the black wire?
Ground to the body of car
What size wire did you use to connect it to the fuse?@@garagedilettante1128
Thancks champ! You help me i appreciate
Any solution for this problem, please? If I don't fully press the clutch down when shifting gears, the car starts revving up on its own, and the tachometer stays at 3000 RPM. The problem is only resolved when I disengage the clutch, pull the car over, turn it off, and restart it.
It could be an exhaust leak!
Garbage install video. You didn't break shit down and you did a piss poor job of explaining shit. Complete garbage just like the siren
Where the heck do you get those parts for that cheap?
Old video - old prices.
Worked. Thank you from the UK!!!

Thank you sir!
Yea when I bought my gts 957 it came with the back saying porche gts instead of cayenne gts It looks so much cleaner
I've had exactly the same issue, and have solved it 100%!! First, you can open the roof up and put some grease into the metal rail and the rubber. It should help the roof to open. Then (and this is the most important part) you have to start the engine (!) (I optionally drove some kilometres) and then perform an initialisation on the roof. 1.) Close the roof completely 2.) Press & hold the closing button for 10-15 seconds, until you notice a slight movement in the roof - then let go of the button 3.) Right away, press the closing button again and hold it until the roof performs a full opening & closing-process. Keep the button pressed for this whole time. If it doesn't work right away, try it again several times (with the engine running!) After that, the roof is working again. 👍🏻
thanks max, i was experiencing this issue the first day after i bought my giulietta, i thought i had to bring it back to the garage already but thanks to your solving method it is working 100% again!!
