993cc ◊ 2022-06-16 00:25	Does that mean Duetto has to be added to all 1750?

Then a court sentenced that it was copyrighted by a candy business, who obtained the exclusive right to use it and it was removed by the Alfa. Thus, I believe we should add it only to MY 1966 models

But yes agree on how they should be listed. edit: really a candy business, never heard that one before! -- Last edit: 2022-06-16 12:22:36
