When I was a senior in high school in 1977 one of the other students had a new Fiat X-19. It looked very sporty, but was slow and quite scary for reliability- I was driving a 1969 Chevy Impala with a 327 cubic inch small-block V8, and a lot of body rust so it only cost $200. This modified Fiat will be amazing- I have seen that it is difficult to find a windshield in good condition for them.

Hoping to this summer, should be drivable!

hows this doing? any updates? the x19 is my dream project

[@KurtofTrades]

I’m hoping to get an update this summer, it’s rolling, cooling system is done and so is the electronics. Lots of tidying up and the exterior obviously still needs to be done. Should be moving around under its own power on the roads though!

@@KurtofTrades yeah nice! can't wait to see it finished and updated, hope it looks sick and is going well!

[@dsmithwc04]

[@KurtofTrades]
