Hello from DFW Texas.

Post by JKreykes »

My wife and are currently working on the purchase of an 1970 124 spider from a friend of our that inherited from his grandfather when he passed. It’s been sitting for over 6 years so we are looking forward to the project. It’s been garage kept for most of it life and the whole time our friend has owned it it has been in the garage. Already have gotten some great information reading through the forums.

There are many Vintage Fiat owners there and a great club run by Kathy Young. Plus the benefit of 2 parts suppliers in your back yard.

I lived for about 10 years in the Frisco/Allen/Plano area.

I went back to Frisco about 5 months ago to mess around at Ikea and I got lost. I lived in the Shops At Legacy Apartments and used to go to Ikea about once a month to goof off and eat meat balls. Back then it was Ikea, Rooms to Go, The Container Store and then the Mall. But now you can't see 12 feet off the tollway! I was freaked out. Even ended up next to the Cowboys new facility. Sure was fancy but wasn't the Ikea I was looking for :lol:
