Just brought home a '77

[Stuknot]

Hello from Orange County, CA. I just brought home a red '77 Spider that my sister bought new years ago. My brother's had it since the early '80's and now I've got it. I had a green '74 years ago and it's great to be driving a Fiat again.

Here's my '77. Aside from getting hood and trunk emblems, first steps include replacing the dash and wood and figuring out the brakes. My brother, from whom I bought the car, tells me that the last brake job he had done necessitated the parking brake being disabled. Hopefully there's a remedy for that.

Hmm. I thought I followed the directions for posting pictures. Apparently not.

It is tricky, but it will work, have faith.

Yes, patience is the key to posting!
