Popular Post Luna Eclipsed Posted September 28 Popular Post Share Posted September 28 INTRODUCTION This is my 1984 Fiat X1/9 project, I first got this car back in 2021 around a month after my 21st birthday as I had always wanted one, I found her sitting rotting away in a cul-de-sack near Isle Park here in nelson, I grew estatic to see one and was sadded to see how bad a shap the car was in, after a while of walking past it, my great uncle and I went to see if I could buy the car, we spoke to the owners, a lovley older couple and they agreed, at this point some how them being from christcurch came up and my mum also came up, turns out they used to teach my mother in highschool and even remembered her, it gets even weirder as one of mums old boyfriends lived with them as an exhange student and they had photos of my mum and him, I told mum about the car and to her supprise she remembered seeing it driving around Christchurch long ago, and so the project began with many rust repairs and ripping the car apart over and over. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luna Eclipsed Posted September 29 Author Share Posted September 29 The Car Becomes Road Legal After a bunch of rust work and some mechanical bits the car finally became road legal, I drove it like this for a good while until the motor started to leak oil from just about every piece imaginable. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
