124 Sport Coupe, Amazing Condition and IT's A COUPE!!
California car shipped to Connecticut several years ago, purchased and driven by me, (I love it)! Minor repairs done in my term with her include replacing metal small weak spot in passenger side floor and reinforcing rear shock mounts, single weber installed and tuned on an 1800cc BC Fiat motor (California owner had transplant done from original 1600cc motor), suspension is great, five speed manual (close ratio short throw) is excellent and so is the clutch.
Having properly tuned the carburator, new plugs and coil, have encountered a rough running problem which we attribute to less than perfect valve spacing... I have not had the time to address that issue. With the exception of the clock, all guages work, manual windows and all glass is in good shape and the seals are good.
THE BODY IS AMAZING, solid with no rust issues, an incredible example when you consider 99.9% of Fiat 124 Coupes (in the world) have gone the ashes to ashes, rust to dust route (in their first ten years or less) and don't even exist in any condition anywhere!
The interior is an integrated mix-match of what appears to be '72 era and '74 era pieces... Having owned (new back in the day) a '71 Coupe followed by a new '74 coupe I can't even tell what is from which group, I think the dash and seats (in excellent shape) are from a '74-'76, possibly the engine donor car in CA... none of it matters, it all fits and looks right as well as having had a new headliner installed in CA.
I describe this car to my freinds as the "screamin yellow zonkerz" from the (not so) fast and (very) furious. It is an absolute blast to drive on backroads and is incredibly well balanced so even when you're not going that fast, you're having a grand time feeling like speedracer in a sports car.
Though I am not a dealer, my best friend is, so I never registered the car and only drove it a couple thousand miles (on dealer plates). With his blessing I can offer
FREE CLIMATE CONTROLLED STORAGE for this coming winter season if the buyer is so inclined!

"Up for auction I have this rare 1973 Fiat 124 Sport Coupe, one of a kind. This coupe has been restored by a Fiat enthusiast of over 30 Years, and it shows. The car is a southern California car so it is rust free, and the engine and transmission are original and run strong. The car has some imperfections such as the differential is leaking a little, the exhaust hangers need to be replaced and some imperfections in the paint, nothing major. The vehicle comes with a salvage title, for reasons unknown. We have inspected the vehicle throughly and have not found any evidence that the car has been involved in a wreck. The only body work that has been done is the roof had a dent in it and the trunk had some minor rust, all of this has been professionally repaired. The 1592cc engine and 5 speed transmission run great with no weird noises and smooth shifting, never been modified. Front suspension and alignment are fine with no major problems, or rattles, the chassis is straight and rust free. The interior is tear free with new roof liner and a re-upholstered dashboard, all the gauges fuction fine except the radio. The rims are a rare 4 x 98 Eagle Sport rims, if you own a Fiat, you know how hard it is to acquire rims with this bolt pattern. This was the last year of the beautiful chrome bumpers before the DOT made Fiat change them to an ugly 5 mph heavy bumper which made the car hideous. Please be aware that we are not in the mood for games, we have been dealing Fiats in eBay for years, and we are also affiliated with the Southern California Fiat club, so we are not here to rip anybody off. You are free to ask questions only if you are serious about purchasing the car, we don't want any hagglers, tire kickers, dreamers, perfectionist or fools with their own contracts. Furthermore No trades, there is no reserve so the highest bidder will take it home. If you would like to make an appointment to see the car, that will not be a problem, car is located in Studio City California."
