Another New Member from Washington State

Post by youngki »

Hello,
Just picked up a 1978 124 yesterday!
I'll be needing a new carburator and front suspension. Other than that, she is awesome!
Please let me know if you had gone through with the two things above. Or if you have any tips for me in general...
Here are some pictures...

I found the website for the Seattle area Fiat club
http://www.fiatnorthwest.org

They meet once a month and alternate between Renton and Kenmore. I'll probably attend the one in November that's up in Kenmore. I guess they had a bunch of spiders down in Seattle over the weekend for the Italian festival.

I was hoping to get some mechanic recommendations from those guys. I've started trying to do some of the work myself. I'm working on the timing belt and cooling system.

This site is a great resource. The information on the internet makes working on these things much less intimidating.
