A beautifully preserved Fiat with no rust !!!  Original Blue Licence  Plate .     Lived in sunny California from new !!   . Still has all the original old undercoating visible under all the fenders etc that is peeling from age . beautiful patina and when I looked underneath it made me purchase the car at that time    Underneath of this car is unmolested . span > complete all original from front to back never had any accidents. Original owner repainted years ago with a beautiful repaint starting to crack on rear trunk and paint is slightly faded from rest of car . the middle of the hood is also starting to fade slightly
That was all the bad news . Good news . This is a very scarce and rare rust free stunning  looking little car  (  Beautiful bumpers added  still have the big ugly heavy originals ) For a car guy or girl that likes to drive it is scintillating how this little car handles through the winding roads
I purchased the car two and a half years ago with a completely overhauled engine ( car had been standing for a few years owner fired it up with gummed up rings tec etc ) I have the receipts . new pistons etc etc $ 4800. 00 cambelt oil pump water pump and so on 
I have done about 8000 trouble free miles on engine and she has not used a drop of oil between maintenance's   It drives like a dream. olden day dream . real Italian sports car 
New CLOTH not Vinyl  top . double the price 4 times the look. I am a car nut and looked at a lot of them before buying such an original and gorgeous looking sports car   
Interior of the car is in mint condition with no unsightly tears etc . riginal wooden steering in perfect shape . all indicators lights switches and wiring etc is in mint unmolested original condition and with all lights etc in perfect working order . except for the wipers not having being used are a little slow . like me 
Purely cos thats me just not wanting to ever break down . I have fitted a new alternator   2 )  New Uprated starter motor  3 ) electronic ignition ( the car runs so smoothly no more tuning up worries )  4) New brakes all round. pads and  with discs all four discs . All new expensive braided hoses to all four corners . The car was running perfectly when I bought it and none of all the above were needed and I have all the original parts still in perfect original working order !!
The rear differential has new bearings and is quiet as a mouse . even with the top up !!!  propshaft is perfect  and a new " upgraded donut "  has been fitted


Heater and defrosting are in perfect working order . The front suspension parts etc are all original to the car and all new balljoints and bushings etc etc will be sold with car
The transmission is in perfect condition with no noises no grating no jumping out of gear  just perfect as it was built and meant to be .  
I do not drive this car any longer as I have too many cars  and it has been in storage for a year so its time to go . I have almost $ 10 000. 00 Dollars worth of receipts of recent work to make this car perfect and will be a real joy for someone who wants a beautiful Italian sports car for an excellent price 
Please email me for any further assistance all questions welcome !!! In answer to a question the car has a new exhaus sytem only just before I put it inside the storage unit and it also has a new master cylinder. Thank you for the inquiries !!!
