Fiat Other . Here is a real find, a 1974 Fiat 128 Sport L. (If you don't know what this car is look at my last picture!!) This car is as close to NO RUST as you are ever going to find on a 46 year old Fiat, it does have a little but for what this is I would consider it virtually rust free. I can not believe how clean this car is. I have never seen one this clean in the States or in Europe. A 128 Sport is extremely rare in the states and I would guess you would not be able to find another and if you did I cant imagine it being this clean. Most of these cars in Europe have been either rusted out or made into Rally cars. I cant say I have ever saw one in the states. For all of you Ferrari collectors and club members, here is your chance to have something none of your buddies have in their collection, the type car that Enzo Ferrari daily drove and actually made commercials for back in the early 70's. Do a quick internet search of Enzo Ferrar, fiat 128 and you will see numerous mentions and some of the commercials of him and the car. I bought it from an Italian car collector that had plans restoring it and adding it to his collection but out of the blue developed some serious health issues. I was told that the true mileage on this car is 29992 actual miles and that's what the title reflects. I was told he bought it out of a garage where it had been sitting for about 15 years and before that it was sitting inside for 20 plus years. Somewhere along the way one of the previous owners had plans of restoring it and they started to strip out some of the interior, chrome, lights, and drive train along with priming a few spots that had bad paint. I do not see any signs of body work that are due to any accident, possibly a ding or small dent at worst and a couple small spots (assuming very minor) where possibly a rust bubble was fixed including a little on the underneath of the hood re-enforcements. Like I said this car is in very good condition and especially so for a Fiat of this age. As you can see from the pictures, both trunk drops are perfect, the floors are extremely solid, the doors are next to perfect, the glass is all good, it appears to have all of the chrome, the dash is perfect, the door panels are very nice and could be reused with anything other than a concourse restoration ( the passenger side could probably still be used, it appears to have all of the lights and head light buckets, it has the head light bezels and grill, windshield wiper arms, it has most if not all of the interior trim pieces, it has the original jack and wheels along with many small and misc pieces that might be hard to identify until the car starts going together. The only items I see that are missing are the original seats (supposedly were with the car but we have not been able to locate them) and the front bumper which wasn't when the car when the last owner purchased it. The engine and transmission that come with the car are not the original to the car, I was told what model fiat they came out of ( I believe it was also a 1600cc engine as opposed to a 1300cc) but he did say the engine was very strong and the transmission was good. It does not run and the drive train is basically just bolted into place. I don't know how better to describe this car other than to say, If you are looking for a car that no one else has to restore or to be the guy that's Ferrari collection owns something none of his friends ever thought of or could find you don't want to miss this as I can pretty confidently say there is not another one like this in America and you would be hard pressed to find one like this in Europe or South America. It's a very cheap car that has an around the world following and it's in extremely good condition, just needing to be restored but the best part is no one else has one!!! I have no problem selling to over seas buyers as long as you can get it paid for and arrange transportation from here in a very timely manner. I could possibly help with port delivery but I would rather not. If you have any questions or you would like additional pictures feel free to ask.
