Phil in mattawan Michigan 1978 124 Spider

Post by Mileage »

Just decided to start work on my 1978 Fiat 124 Spider. Bubbled paint, bad battery, and ruff interior. But, as they say. "It's paid for." I'll build it out and then look to find someone to whom I can consult to help them get a similar project off the ground.

I got my start and so far things are looking pretty good. This car should prove to be a good conversation starter and a pleasant way to get supplies to and from the range this summer for motorcycle safety classes. It's been a long time since I've had an interest in a vehicle other than a motorcycle. Maybe I'll find an affinity for cars again...

Phil,
Welcome. It would be great to see the before (now) pictures of your car. You deserve Kudos for riding a motorcycle year-round.

Welcome, another Michigander with a Fiat! Is it driveable yet?
