Hello Peter, and welcome. There are a few fast Fiats represented here, but the majority are pretty slow (at least by contemporary standards) :(
Still, a great, fun car. Do you have one? By the postings on this forum, apparently several of your countrymen do!

Yeah Hi Peter welcome, are you going down to Canberra in a fortnight for the Auto Italia? Some of the lads are making a bit of a weekend of it I hear, theres talk about going down the coast road on Saturday, staying overnight and then doing the moutain run inland in the morning to make the concourse. Im going to talk with adrian next week about him coming down, I need another spider amoungst the 3 integrales or they'll just gang up on me. :wink:

Hey divace, hows new baby?? leaving from Sydney on Saturday, that would be great if we could at least out number the X19's on the convoy :lol: . PM me and we can discuss, don't want to hijack Peters thread man.

Would a Victorian Spider be welcome at Auto Italia ? I'll be on holidays and would love an excuse to give SPYDUH a run up over the High Plains.

Welcome Peter. Are you going to fix up that building behind the spider as nice and shiny as the car?

Victorian Spider Welcome...of course Curly!! Especially you and SPYDUH.
I'm just sorry I didn't take more photos of that TUFF littl' AC you had at the nationals this year, man that thing handles well. I saw some pics that Tony.S took of you at Wakefield raceway and it sits might flat on those bends.

Peter, this theoretically isnt a thread hijack cause you got no car to hijack yet..Maybe you should bring some cash down to the Auto Italia concourse next weekend, you never know what you may find,,,maybe a little old lady with a one owner low mile 131could be waiting for you :lol: or should I say bring your biscuits, I heard scotch fingers work well.. :lol: :lol:
