G'day from Melbourne,Australia

Post by heather1661 »

Great to be accepted.No Spiders in our garage, but we do have three 124 CC Coupes (2 74's and 1 75). Two are road cars and are undergoing bare metal restorations .The mechanicals and suspension are sorted , so we are just waiting for the Paint Shop to do thier thing.The third CC is a Racer we are building up from a "Barn Find" up country.We have a prepped race motor with 45 DCOE webbers to fit and can't wait to get it rolling.All three cars run 1756 motors.Looking forward to having a good look around.Thanks for taking on a Coupe Tragic.

Welcome to the forum. Hey, not all the members are Spider owners. There are a lot of other makes of Fiat represented also.
don't be a stranger, keep us informed as your projects progress.

welcome Heather! We're all anxious to see pics. Coupes seem to be very popular down under

Nice to meet another Aussie on this forum - and one who shares my taste in 124CCs (I think I've owned five or six so far, but currently holding at two CCs and 1 Spider).

Hope to catch up if I'm over in that part of the world (same goes for you too, Curly).
