Here is a pretty cool Dutch 124 site I found. http://www.globallistics.com/spidersweb ... s1_nl.html

There's some serial number info here. But also go to the Home page and look around. Some beautiful pictures of what I think is a 72 124.

The Fiat folks have never been too concerned about record keeping. Everything's pretty much aproxomate. Unlike the Germans, for example, who could probably tell you the thread count on the rear seats of your 58 Porsche.

I've got a 76 too, but it seems it was pretty early in the year so it's kind of a 75+, and since it was a California car, well, that complicates things too. The point is, I wouldn't worry about it too much, who knows what's happened to our cars over the last 30+ years. Just enjoy the heck out of it.
