Looks great! Definitely on my long list of things still to do

Another still born KZbin project

Whats happening with this build ?

You've connected the new distributor positive terminal (red) to the positive terminal on the ignition coil, correct? And the negative terminal, to what have you connected it to? Negative terminal on the ignition coil? Thanks.

Did it work? We had a gorgeous silver X19 with leather seats and it continually overheated.

I also had an X1/9 for years. A fantastic car. Lovely with an open roof. Too bad I no longer have a car because of my age, 87. Greetings from Holland.

Great to see a master at work on the English wheel.

Hi. Are you still building this car? How about the X1/9 project? Great videos and a really, really good channel but nothing new for so long. Hoping everything’s ok.

Mitica K Sport!! Siete poco distanti da dove abito!!!☺️😉👍

Hallo, I have an important question, is it possible to exchange a transmission from another car (fiat, alfa romeo, etc.)? or is it the only one for this fiat? Thank you for answer.

Brilliant mod!

Whats happening?

KEEP.LANCIA.ALIVE🇮🇹🇮🇹

Clever design. I wonder if a central locking solenoid would have the power to operate the slider ? Potentially controlled by the fan thermostat with an override and delay for when parking for let the hot air escape.

Just finished watching this latest video of your progress and have been fascinated by your depth of knowledge about the car, the downer car, and the process of building it to competition specifications. Great to see the people in NZ who build these cars also and that they have many of the parts for new builds there made in house. Congratulations so far on your successes and breathing life into a legend. Excited to see the next episode.

Better than factory you actually put the steering on the correct side

Looks like a lot of work but well worth it. No more over heating problems. Nice job! I have a 1982 X1/9. I may have a go at it on my engine lid!

Nice work dude and great little car! Way better than putting elephant cum on your tires like that other x1/9 guy!

Well, you can't be accused of ruining a perfectly good stock Monte, great save!

Great idea! That's a 1500 engine lid, do the same to a lower 1300 one?

All you need now is to color match them. SEM makes some great vinyl spray paint. Just did this on my 911, using Scat seats. Paint holds up well.

What are those wheels omg!

A labour of love, no doubt. So much work! Thanks

Did the factory use a steel shell and glass clamshells like this monoqouce chassis I thought it was a tube chassis with all fiberglass body n clamshells be stronger the way you are doing it would love a o37 and a delta

Brilliant

Hmm. Now you need to motorise the vent mechanism in the lid. How hard could that be? Is that a 1300 with a 1500 lid btw? Kinda works.

Very Nice Work!! How much do you charge to do one for me?

My x1- 9 is the only one I ever see on the rode or anywhere where I live. Classic fiat period for that matter. Sad.

I would have just purchased a high efficiency aluminium radiator from Vick Auto and called it a day! Cooling problem solved 😉

Where did this project go ?

I am going to have one of these!

Trop top moi je vais faire pareil sur la mienne😍😍j adore

Threadlocker was enough with the bolts

I've seen the black 037 and Tony Fassina's Stratos in person 😍

Wizard work there! Those fly screen doors sure are handy, eh!

I was about to ask where on earth you found such a nice example of an X1/9, but then I started to watch the whole series... Now I know the answer... Nicely done! 👍🏻

Clever guy. Nice car

lol guess it fell flat on its face?

What is name that wheels (0,01)

Dear sir I really understand your experience as a young man. I was introduced to Fiat as a young bloke through my best friend who's dad was in the N.S.W. Fiat club. I bought his old 131 which was a gem and out was glorious. Going up a hill revving 2750rpm was like hearing an orchestra. I used to drive with my head out to of the window. I am very happy to see the results of your passion for these Italian masterpieces. Good luck with your further endeavours.

What size mm are the poly bushings ?

The thermostatic switches fail more on 124s and other fiats due to the absence of a relay to handle the current of the fan...im glad yours had a relay. Also the same goes for the headlights no sure on the x but many fiats the lights current passes thru the switch gear and even the ignition switch ...installing relays so the switches an the ignistion switch is turning on relays will make her much more reliable...the ignition switches burned out alot especially with higer output bulbs . Plus the lights will burn brighter with a properly installed fused relay circuit. They even sell high amp relays 100 200 amp capacity that you can have the complete output of the igniton switch solely controling the relay. If you open the ignition switch you will see the contacts are very small in comparison to the liad it carries causing high resistance. As always use fuses proper gague wire neatness and always gromets when passing wires through bulk heads and fire walls ...most fires are not started by gas its the electrical system 95 percent of the time

Are you not cooling the intake at all? I believe the X1/9 won't thank you for that -- it gets very hot under there, due to the cramped space, and the heat causes all sorts of fuelling issues if you don't cool the intake and the carburettor (later models had an air cooling fan for the carb). My X1/9 had no end of issues because the coolant passageways to the intake were blocked by a careless previous owner trying to fix a leak with RadWeld. Still, the video is from 2016, so either there were no problems or you already discovered and fixed them!

Great racer, I have a 1975 Fiat 131S, 2 Dr, one owner. Great for Abarth recreation. If anyone interested.👍

Mildly depressing to watch but I can't wait to see how it turns out

Nice to see my car on the thumbnail!

What happened to the project?

Looks a bit like an X1/9 Fiat.
