Hello and Welcome. Seems like every 124 sedan was painted that "distinctive" shade of green.

Have you had the car long? What's its history?

I really love the car and would like more pictures too! However I think it's more a yellow/orange color than green. Also, are you sure it's a Fiat? :-)

It is 1974 124 Special TC
I picked it up last November locally.
It was pretty much original with no rust and missing drivers seat.

The car still needs a lot of things to be done , and little by little it is getting there.
I have big plans , but my budget and time can not keep up with them.
So I just have take it easy and do one thing at the time.
Unfortunately I don't know any local Fiat owners , besides my body who has another Special TC.

wow. this may be the coolest thread I've seen in awhile. That is a SWEET find! And the subtle resto-mods yopu've done are perfect, to me.

I also love that you're active in the car community, getting it out and seen / driven.

way to go dood!
