Saw it driving down the road the other day.
Later,while driving down a side street,I noticed
it parked in a driveway.
I found an article on it in an old Car & Driver
that I have.They didn't have very many nice things
to say about it.I was surprised to read that it was
imported by some company called Abarth.
I went back & gave the article to the owner,Joe.
He has all kinds of cool stuff around his garage -
a '60's dragster,a bunch of Model A cars/parts,an old
(20's)ford pickup "rat rod",a '41 Chevy street rod,plus
all kinds of interesting stuff in the garage.
You never know what you'll find when you visit
with other car people.

Reminds me of a find I made back in 2005... Drove by a local garage (with the door usually closed), spotted what looked like Hillman station wagon, turned around immediately! The guy was in the garage and quite friendly... Actually it was a 1963 Singer Gazelle station wagon, brought over from England when the guy moved over here in 1981... And... Also in the garage was a 1952 Velocette police motorbike!

At the time I thought he owned the house, but apparently he was just renting it as a few months later he was gone along with his vehicles, not sure where he moved to...
