Drive in autumn leaves

Recently I went driving around my house with my 1969 1750GTV Mk.1 to enjoy beautiful autumn leaves in Japan. I also tried making the onboard video, however, unfortunately some noises occured probably due to the vibration. Please advise if you have any recommendation for good microphones with good cost performance.

Regarding the autumn leaves, I believe the pictures are good. I would like you to enjoy scenery of Alfa Romeo and autumn leaves in Japan.

Tentatively , I would spray the rust-penetration lubricant from both sides of the piston and try again in a few days. If it doesn ’ t work , I would give up the overhaul and order the new part.

When I was drilling the piston halfway , I didn ’ t have any specific idea , however , I thought to tap the piston to make the thread.  I started to turn the tap handle , and I felt the feeling that the piston was moved.  So , I tried to pull it , and then suddenly the piston was removed from the cylinder. Finally I could extract the rusty piston! I observed the extracted piston.  It looked there was no risk of the leakage of the fluid because the hole I made in the piston was not penetrated.  Thinking the function that this part only holding the rod connected with the clutch pedal , it could be reused if the hole would be filled by the hard material. However , be...
