[Robert W. Garven Jr. (rgarven]

A friend just bought a nice 1975 fiat 130 coupe. Is there any chat groups that would be good for him with the older car. he is a Brit

here in the states and needs some help as its his first Italian car!!! I searched but thought one of you may know which is a good one?

Thanks!

Ah, the cinquecento! A mate of mine bought a Fiat 500 around about 1970 or
so. It was really cute and had a canvass sunroof. He came over to my place
to show me the new acquisition and parked it outside of my house, proudly
got out, locked the car and started to walk over to me to say g'day when I
called out that the car was rolling down the hill. Indeed, the car was
gradually gathering speed as it rolled away towards imminent disaster.  My
friend spun around and sprinted down the hill after the car and of course
the door was locked, but luckily the sunroof was open so he dived head first
through the hole in the roof and somehow got one of his hands to the brake -
a lucky save! You have to love Italian handbrakes of the era! The handbrake
in my 308gt4 is no better!
