You should do a follow up on the many cars you have brought back to life. It would be cool to see what has happened to them all. Great video. Love the Fiat 124. Great design.

When I see other retailers just wearing shirts and shorts while clearing mice nests, it is obvious they still have to learn (the hard way?). I fully understand you protecting yourself after that month of illness. Excellent information (and a great vid!).

[@marshprofessionaldetailing9794]

Steve is like the Tony Stark of mechanics haha. He has something for every situation. Great turn around on the Fiat. The new owner is ecstatic.

[@MrSolveMYMaze]

Whoever said you can't smell a video, they need to watch this one. Excellent content as always Larry

[@JXS63J]

I had to have mine painted and repainted at least 4 times! I learned just how many shades of Blue there is! "Fix it again Tony" was the apt name for these cars. I loved the car, especially the day I got it back from a repaint, but that would last but a few weeks before the peel began again! I graduated to a Miata which was really the "Fiat done right". No Fiat repair person is ever alone! So, thanks in advance for bringing back my youth! And now, to watch another of your great posts...

[@zlatkovujevic7348]

Did you ever though that maybe is not the car fault, maybe it shady paint shop fault?

[@JXS63J]

@@zlatkovujevic7348 Absolutely! I learned that right after I bought my first Miata!

[@zlatkovujevic7348]

@@purplesocks9745 I disagree.

[@JodyOwen-we6oo]

Purple socks Nope. The engine is pretty solid. Driven regularly they are well built little cars with the fun factor of a car 20 times the price. Yes, they are sports cars so they require more car than a beige Toyota built for those who dislike driving . But unreliable is a BMC characteristic, not a Spider 2000.

[@evancain6756]

Love that Larry takes PPE seriously. You only get one set of senses and once they are damaged, life isn’t the same anymore!

[@jang.5309]

I had a 1984 as my first car in high school in the early 2000s in FL. Mine was in a good shape but seeing the interior and underside and hearing the comments. Brought me right back to when I spend my weekends cleaning her and draining the battery listening to Pavarotti and Bocelli. After high school I moved back to Europe and wanted to bring her back with me. Unfortunately, a mustang caused the tow truck into a accident which created a fling shot effect and broke my heart! Thank you for this video. Brought back joy memories and happy tears!

[@Riverguide33]

Love the before-and-after vids. Thanks for subjecting yourself to such horrid conditions, to produce another great transformation. 👍

[@ncc74656m]

Steve looked SO put-upon when he said "Let's see what ya got." 😂 Get that man a very nice bottle of something.

[@didybopintitys]

I really hope whoever ends up getting these cars after these details realize just how bad they are beforehand, cause while they’ve become safe to work or restore I definitely wouldn’t be comfortable just driving in it as Is even after the great detail you always accomplish, either way love your videos Larry thanks as always

[@stevecrocker8956]

So satisfying to see you “work your magic”! Your warnings on precautions were so well placed and your video certainly made the point you were trying to make. Well done on all counts!

[@kieranbrain3733]

I've watched all your videos and love your work,i had to watch the first half of this vid through my fingers. So dangerous dealing with the amount of junk in that car. Thankyou again for showing us how to be safe😊👏.

Love watching your videos, Larry. Not only is the detailing content super fun and inspiring to watch, but you have such an awesome, humble and positive attitude that's really infectious. Wishing you all the success in the world, and please keep the exceptional content coming!

[@RandallJT84]

This particular Fiat 2000 was last registered in NY 8/84. I was born in August 1984, on 8/9 at 5:44pm in San Antonio, TX. That car was in desperate need of some TLC! Great work! Amazing that rats can do so much damage to a single car in such time. Remarkable transformation as always! Hope the new owner is happy to see the dramatic before/after result.

[@ArcFlashTools]

Another weekend on the grind. This is therapy for my detailing addiction! Thx Larry!

[@brianaustin208]

I owned a '78 124 Spyder absolutely loved that car and I can say from first hand knowledge and thank God I'm a mechanic because FIAT truly stands for "Fix It Again Tony" 😂!!!

[@eagle2019]

Hey Larry weren't you just so excited to find out that after all that hard great work you did cleaning the interior of that plane and polishing the paint to an incredible luster, that the clowns at Rebuild Rescue, ripped out the interior and threw it away and then stripped all the paint off and it is now a pile of parts that can't find anyone to paint it!!

[@cadmando18]

I love watching your videos for the different ways you treat older paint, newer paint, and different manufacture paint. That experience is gold. There is a lot you can learn from watching videos... but it doesn't compare to what you learn when doing it yourself. I can't wait to tackle more projects and your videos get me excited for my next job. I made my own detailing business called Ideal Detail.

[@Thrash44041]

I so appreciate your excitement for cars in general. Its so fun to watch you geek out over leaning. Love it.

YOU do great work! My father had one of those that my older brother got when he was about 15 and pretty much destroyed. It was a 78 or 79 2000 spider also. I love the car and it’s neat to see this one going back out on the road.

[@DaddyoftheMack]

Just started watching this video but it looks like you'll have to detail the detail studio afterwards.

[@Wrlss911Pro]

That is my thought as well. This is good example of a vehicle that needs to be bio isolated within the studio. I am concerned about the biohazard contamination within the studio from all the dust, etc. I really hope you decontaminate the studio after this project.

[@davidwright4537]

Great episode! The funniest line in the video was “do you know how many times I’ve done this?”. I can relate! I have found that picking up a new project car is one of the most exciting times in the process, for it is full of optimism.

Hantavirus is no joke! Where I am from, many people have died because of it. It is a distant cousin of covid 19, but there's no specific cure for it yet, and it's really hard to diagnose.

Outstanding job Larry!!! I have a similar age Triumph Spitfire in my street, basically it’s barely sticking out of the bushes now, only the back end’s yellow paint is visible a little bit… Its packed inside with rubbish and all kind of junk right up to to its soft top… I think even you would be shocked to see how it looks like! 😁 I was thinking about saving it, perhaps asking someone about it and clean it for free as I do my videos, but I don’t know who the owner is and probably it would fall apart as it’s so rusty… but don’t know what I should do - it would be a great rescue video though! 😊

FANTASTIC video Larreh! Disaster details are awesome. Question: How come you didn't focus on the wheel wells more? Or was that just not shown in the video, or...?

[@JD987abc]

It’s sad to see a beautiful classic Italian sports car allowed to become a rats nest. I’m a proud owner of a 1980 Fiat Spider with only 35,000 original miles. I had to have it repainted but mechanically its in solid condition. You did a fantastic job cleaning out the neglect and rodents crap. I’m glad your Spider went to someone who knows how special the classic Spider is. She’ll be on the road many more years. Thank you for doing such a great job on this Italian classic. Joe.

[@NolanMotorsports]

I had no idea you got so sick from the plane detail. Here I am thinking its just a gross environment to work in, turns out its actually dangerous too. Props to you for saving this Fiat. Great work!

[@darren2650]

Hahaha love the Steve camo's. He acts like he doesnt love making the trip over to see what disaster you've got in the shop but you loves it

[@wornoutwrench8128]

Those were a fun car. A friend of mine had a 850 Spider that he would let me use on occasion. 850 cc's of thundering power, I'm sure someone knows the proper specs but I think it was 40-50 HP. No drag racing in that thing but once you got it on the highway and up to speed it was fun. I picked my girl friend up in it one summer day, top down. She had just had her hair done for our date. By the time we got where we were going her hair was a mess... 47 years later we are still married. Ah yes. memories. Car looks great, as expected.

[@x35mmman]
