It’s only original once! This is a rare opportunity to own an unmolested Fiat 124 with 37 years of patina. This vehicle has been professionallymaintained throughout its’ life.This is a one owner automobile with 23,000 miles since new. It has never seen snow or salt and rained on only a hand full of times. This Fiat has been stored 7 months a year its entire existence.
This vehicle came from the factory with a 2L engine, 5 speed manual transmission, power windows, luggage rack. The dealer installed a SONA radio, added pin striping and undercoating. The paint is all original with no rust or touch up. The interior is original as is the carpeting. The drivers’ seat has been repaired from the FIAT LEAN (seat upholsteryremoved, seat pan welded then upholstery reinstalled.) The interior has no tears and carpeting is the original wool which has never been cleaned with chemicals.
Fiat USA installed an electric fuel pump under warranty when the car was 8years old. The top was also replaced by the dealer when the car was new due to a flaw in the original top. All fluids have been changed over the years, brake fluid, antifreeze, transmission, rear end, all hoses. Exhaust system was replaced at 17,500 miles (9/11/2007). Tires were replaced in 2006 (all 5) at about 17,000 miles because I no longer trusted the factory PIRELLI 165 R13's. The undercarriage has never been degreased or cleaned in any way.The exterior color is a metallic BRONZE (dark root beer) which was one of 3 optional factory metallic colors available for I believe was a $ 500.00 up charge. The rear bumper has surface rust starting on the bottom so I have purchased a stainless steel replacement which is not installed but is included with the car ($500.00). The factory shop manual and all servicerecords go with the vehicle. The factory clock and radio have been replaced and both are still working and will be included with the vehicle.
