another followed me home

Post by narfire »

Went to the island last weekend to visit the son. Stopped in to see Launie (lgratto) and after he recently purchased a rust free 1500 a rust free 124 became redundant in his/her yard. Rented a trailer and the shell followed me back home. The ferry fare was not too much less that the car but I made it.
I was looking for a rust free shell as I have a couple of other spiders at the shop. The 72 has major rust issues and the 75 has ... issues . So I plan to make a hybred of sorts with interior parts from the 72 that are in good shape.
Have to finish up another 72 that is close first though. This shell is a 80 FI model but no engine or trans. So another franken fiat is in order.

You can mix and match hoods and rims for a different look each day of the week :)

Can't remember the details :shock: but if a car comes home it has to be insured and in running condition... So I put it at the shop. I mentioned I picked up some parts, but I did'nt tell her they were still conected to the car..
I'm going to bring the green 72 home to finish it off as it is just not happening over in Summerland.
