Had to sell it a couple years ago to pay medical bills, it was tough to let it go.

It was surprisingly easy to let this one go; I just knew I'd never get around to fixing it up. My 1996 Malibu ragtop I bought in 1977, and was mostly my daily driver up until around 1995. Parked in 2000 and sold last year. (Kid not included).

Wow. I was gonna' ask, please don't kick-start my interest in old cars. But it's too late. @jetboy, what year is that Fiat? I had a '69, same small fender lights but no hood bulge so I'd guess yours to be '70 or '71. Awesome 914-6, Tr6, Alfa, etc. So now I have to throw this pic up:

its actually a 69 with the wrong hood! and also the 1775 engine and thus the need for the hood bulges.

Wow, some amazing machinery chaps and chapettes. My only excuse for the photo below is that I live in the South of France.

Nice. The DMV seems to encourage creative paperwork for some of these cars.
