In this episode of Larry Chen's channel, we witness the incredible transformation of a 1973 Alfa Romeo into a beastly machine with a Ferrari 360 engine. This is no ordinary build, my friends. It's a four-year labor of love, with the owner taking on every aspect of the project himself. From welding to painting to wiring, he's done it all.

The chassis of the Alfa Romeo was in a sorry state, plagued by rust and decay. But our hero wasn't deterred. He rolled up his sleeves and rebuilt the entire back end of the car. Every panel, every seal, all meticulously crafted by his own hands. It's a testament to his dedication and craftsmanship.

Now, let's talk about the heart of this beast. The Ferrari 360 engine, sourced from an exotic car recer in Adelaide, was a perfect fit for the Alfa Romeo. With some minor modifications, it nestled snugly into the engine bay. And let me tell you, this engine is a thing of beauty. With a history deeply intertwined with Alpha and Ferrari, it brings a touch of racing pedigree to this build.

But it's not just about the engine. The transmission, a Subaru BZ, was chosen for its compact size and compatibility with the powerplant. And the body of the car, my friends, has undergone a remarkable transformation. The owner painstakingly worked on every detail, from the over fenders to the custom-made grills. And let's not forget about the interior, inspired by the legendary Ferrari Daytona. The owner even sewed the seats himself, using Ferrari leather for that touch of luxury.

This is not just a showpiece, my friends. The owner has built this car to be driven. With features like air conditioning, cruise control, and power steering, it's designed to be a comfortable and enjoyable daily driver. And let's not forget the striking Ferrari fly yellow paint job, chosen to make this Alfa Romeo stand out from the crowd.

In conclusion, this build is a testament to the passion and skill of its owner. It's a true labor of love, with every aspect of the car carefully crafted and customized.
