5dimer34 Posted August 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 It has a twin cam 1600 motor just like a spider has. Its an auto right now but I will change it to a 5 speed. I love 510s and this looks close but not very many 124 here in the US. It sat in Colorado for years a couple from Germany brought over here to use when they flew over to go ski in Colorado. So it only has 26k miles on it. Should be fun to fix up. I think I'm going to keep it rusty on the outside for now. Quote Link to comment

I think I'm going to keep it rusty on the outside for now. Actually it looks more like a 410 or 411. My RL411 has been mistaken for a FIAT [same design house, Pinin Farina] more times than I want to remember, including the Insurance adjuster who rammed me from behind while looking at a bus accident. That was an easy settlement ! Quote Link to comment

125 CSL Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Don't see to many 124's that have a hard top,...well at least here in the states. This should be interesting to watch. Quote Link to comment
Aibast Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 (edited) VS Lada/VAZ 2101 was made on the same design, just with some soviet "enginering" added. Made it worse than they are. There is a story on how the Fiat got its metal. After the WW2 Finland had to pay to USSR. So they didn't have much finances as the war did do a lot of damage. Well Fins got the cheapest shit iron they could get from Sweden - the stuff that was bad and writen off from steel mills, scrap metal. Finland melted it up and made it into sheet steel. They gave it to USSR as paymend as high quality steel. Soviets needed finances as the interior ecomony was more or less non existant. They sold it to Fiat as high quality sheet steel. And Fiat made them into cars. So this is why they rust like grazy - they are made from crap steel from Sweden. Not to get you down. These things can be fun. Here is a rally VAZ2106. They still run these in here and can be realy fast. Edited August 8, 2018 by Aibast 1 Quote Link to comment
