While searching one of my favorite junkyards today I came across an odd find. A medium blue Alfa Millano. Nothing was left under the hood. I know nothing about these cars. The exterior was rough but serviceable. What amazed me most was that the dark tan cloth interior was in very good condition. The odometer showed 86k miles.
I just thought that someone might like to know.
I can not be that much help since i live about an hour away from the yard but here is their contact info.

Yeah, that's right, their initials are (KRAP.) They do not take themselves too seriously and they are a reasonable priced pull it yourself type place.
If anyone from MI goes to pull parts from that car lemme know. I'll come down with ya and do some wrenching.
Was it a 2.5 or a 3.0 once?
Drivetrain is same as a GTV6
Sorry, I know little about these cars and the engine bay was completely empty. The cloth interior leads me to believe that it was a lesser model.
Sorry I did not have a camera phone with me.
All the rims were gone.
I do not know if the rear end was still there.
That was my next question, they are a trans-axle
The car is a manual trans. From the interior I could see that the stick was present but the shift knob was missing. With no rims and sitting on the ground, I am not sure what was underneth.
All glass was present.
If someone goes back, get all the good switches out of the interior, and if it has all red taillights they are worth pulling too. If the fabric is cordury its a gold model, so 2.5 non lsd transaxle.
Not corduroy, more of a tweed.
The interior looks like this but tan. I think this picture looks gray.

The blue exterior is this shade of blue.

They are basically a GTV6 with an extra set of doors. If the seats are in good shape they should fit in the V6.

Well if its tan corduroy its a gold, if its grey tweed its a silver, leather its a platinum, grey and black recaro seats its a verde.
Which one would have an LSD...that is the real question
Most platinums have an LSD, and verdes. The verde you can tell from the gearing, the platunum who knows, they all should have started out with one, but most are likely too work to work anymore until they are rebuilt, or have been swapped out somewhere along the way.
I had an '87 Milano Platinum...it had the grey leather & an LSD for sure. Sounds like this find is a Gold.
