I first saw a 128 coupe when I was 7. I always liked the shape and watching one drive up and down my street as a lad has etched the lines into my head, as well as the raspy sound.
This one was obtained via a customer of my local fiat parts supplier. I have modified it mechanically fitting a 1500 x1/9 engine with twin 40 Dellorto’s. This develops just over 100 HP at the wheels (tested on rolling road dyno) so is fun to drive. To get it back on the road I need to find a new bonnet, or repair the hinge area on existing one. Car is in original condition and is orange with black interior. I intend to paint this car in the original 128 Blue. Apart from some rust in the boot area this car is very clean compared to most 128 coupes I have seen. I have owned this car since the mid 1990’s.
