My wife bought me this as a birthday present.   Based on a photo of my actual car.

That's lovely John, and happy birthday.

Wayne rushin used to make these when he ran midshire 7s.

So we may see others that people have.

Here is one wayne made for me when we ran our joint seven business together as central 7s

Not quite a 7  but here's a pic of one I made for my autosparks pal. We have an arrangement of his wiring in exchange for my metal bashing, no cash, and I felt the balance was in his favour. He's a bit of an Alphaholic...
It's now turned a good dark brown I'm waiting for the green to start showing

I made this weather vane which is a silhouette of my single seat racer; it's installed on the gable of my workshop. However, it does have some A7 content. hopefully the 2 bearing  factory crank should be strong enough for this job.

Love the crankshaft base...

On the Alfa, great wheel shape. What's the "chassis" made from?

I love the crankshaft mounting for the single seater.
The Alpha is two raised shells soldered together, no chassis at all. The bottom is two slim pointed canoe ends meeting at a 22mm copper pipe soldered into the body forward of centre with a couple of marbles and lots of grease as the bearing.
The louvres were made from strips fed through the gears on a swager
