Coming To A Garage Near Me
Mrs. C has put the kibosh on anymore powered two wheeled toys.
She never said anything about four wheels. So................ Not that one, that belongs to someone else. But yeah, a Fiat 124 Spider. Red. Stored indoors for the last ten years. And Mrs. C approves. Heck, she suggested it. I don't know the year, neither does the seller, she just wants it out of her garage. Honestly, about all I know is that it has four flat tires and covered with a ten year accumulation of dust. Mrs. C saw more of it than I did and all I got out of her was, "I dunno". If it has one of the two manual transmissions, Mrs. C has agreed to finally to learn how to use her left foot. If it has the GM auto, I'll never get to drive it. Anywho, I was told that the selling price was whatever it cost me to get it from sellers place to mine.As we are less than 2 miles apart and there is a U-Haul dealer in town, maybe $50. If the flat bed trailer is at the shop and not in central Illannoy, free. I'm budgeting around $1500 to get it on the road again. Tires will be $200, a gas tank, if needed is $150. Belts, hoses, brakes, fluids, around $300. The other $850 is because I already know that the Brits taught the Italians everything they knew about building cars. Will keep you posted.
