#6128 of 17970 pretty car by Mr_Shiftright HOST Feb 23, 2005 (12:45 pm)
Just saw a Ford V-8 powered Italia being worked on at a friend's shop. Nice looking car. One thing I noticed is that they are using both Fiat and Peugeot suspension pieces. It's going to be hell rebuilding the front end trying to find Peugeot 403 bits and pieces. Replies to this message: andys120 (Feb 23, 2005 1:34 pm)

In that really nice purplish brown color.. with the matching color landau vinyl roof, peeling off to a nice shade of beige..   I'm amazed that something like this is still running... although, the straight-six in them was a decent engine...

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Feb 23, 2005 12:45 pm) I haven't thought about an Italia in years. Weren't they put out by Intermeccanica, the same outfit that did those nice (IMO) Speedster Replicas?
#6131 of 17970 correct! by Mr_Shiftright HOST Feb 24, 2005 (8:51 am)
Dat's right, early 70s Intermeccanica product. Here's some info on them if you are interested:   http://intermeccanica.org/

I'd forgotten that Carrozerie Intermeccanica built the Apollo as well (along with a bunch of other things.

Saw my first Audi A3 last week in Denver. It had Alabama plates and had the "2.0T" label on the back.   Silver, quite sharp looking!

...I saw a 1977 Ford Pinto last night. Now, the car looked like something from "Mad Max" but it was still running. I thought all of these cars died off at least 15 years ago.

I saw a 1970-71 Toyota Corolla---those little fastbacks---they were great little cars.

I saw one this morning. I would something negative about it, but I don't want to feel the wrath of the Fiero fanatics. I'll just say that was a model that could have been cool.

I think it took a kind of perverted genius to make a small car feel so big when you drove it.
