1975 Fiat 124 Spider... Rally Fiat (Fiup)

True everything has condensation here every morning for a few months.
And single day temperature changes of 10c are common.
Also road salt. And 30c+ summers.

If I fix it, I’ll probably weld it just because I know more about it and already have access to the stuff.

Why not both?
The lift and suspension is almost a certainty if I keep it, which at this point I think I will keep it.

Wow! This already a thing for Miatas, and it’s soooo cool! You can just buy a kit.

My job shipped me off to North Carolina last week, so I didn’t get to work on the Fiat, but this week I get to get back to it.

Goals:

  • Fix brakes
  • Change oil
  • Check coolant
  • Finish vacuuming interior
  • Find out how the rear suspension is setup
  • Drive more
  • Record an introduction to the project for people watching that aren’t following here

Also I think I have a name for it. I think I want to call it the Fiup, since I plan to lift it… and I expect to be jumping it a fair bit. Lol
