From the pics I wouldn’t do anything with the paint, except a clay bar and very gentle polish. Looks original, which as we knows is only once.

Here’s my brother driving it. A bit less power than his C8 Vette, but still really enjoyed the experience.
thx - in the BaT photos it looked more red but in person, especially sunlight, the “Rosso Arancia” leans much more towards orange which I absolutely love.
thx! Ha, seeing that the clutch and brake master cylinders on mine had been fairly recently replaced was a big plus :)
yup that’s one of the weak points. 3rd gear synchro on mine is weak, but with a little throttle blip goes in cleanly. My first one’s reverse gear broke so I rebuilt the trans, but apparently Fiat beefed that up ~1980 so my current one should be good.
username checks out.
ha yes I guess they do. My 1986 CRX Si isn’t even in the pic.
as the old saying goes, if your vintage Italian (or British, or German, but not Japanese) car doesn’t have a puddle of oil underneath it’s likely out of oil.
I owned a Ferrari 308 GTS for a few years, and other than the exquisite exhaust note and moderate power difference there’s literally nothing I miss about it now that I (again) have an X1/9.
Saw and bought Tocino Spam about 2 years ago. Fam loved it. Have looked for it ever since (including Asian markets) and never saw it again. Hot and Spicy, Bacon, Hickory, or regular make a fine side for eggs but still look for the mythical Tochino...
np ONLY if the timing chain guides have been replaced, by a shop that knows what they’re doing. The guides crumbled at about the same 131k miles on my E38's motor, and I sold the car rather than tackle the big ass job of replacing them or paying a good shop $3k++ to do it.
I’m on my second i3, both BEVs (REX is heavy, noisy, most likely thing to break). Leased a 2018 ($12.5k for 3 years) now own a 2021 ($32k all in with $11k corp parnership discount and fed/state rebates ) and take issue with the “lack useable range” comment. 2nd and 3rd gen packs with 110-150 miles range is very…
how so?
Love it. Want it. Americans will never buy it.
All that and still less interior space than a minivan. At more the twice the price. Utter stupidity.
