New old guy in MA

Post by Fiatfranco »

Actually don’t have a spider. Just picked up a 72 BC Coupé last fall, joined for the tech aspect. Have a long time thing for Fiat’s, first car was a new 1971 850 Sedan, only thing I could afford, replaced that with a used 71 124 Coupé. Had all the right stuff, 4 wheel discs, 5 speed and twin cam, looked great and was Italian. Just thought I’d say hello. Fran

Welcome aboard. I'm up in Chelmsford about 40 minutes from you.

I love the coupes and have almost pulled the trigger on one a couple of times. However I have a hard rule that all my cars need to fit in the garage in the winter (I can get 3 in with some casters), and I haven't had the empty spot.

This was an impulse buy, it looked amazing, and for the money I don’t think I could have made it look this nice as a project. Waiting for spring, Have a nice set of 14 inch Campagnolo’s I’m going to refinish, even tho the originals were 13”.
