Ten Tenths Podcast

I’m not sure on the numbers but I’m pretty sure this purple was some sort of limited run. Pretty unique hue either way!

Part II The morning of my inaugural drift event, I didn’t even want to get in the truck to drive to the track. All I could think about was the colossal idiot I was going to look like trying to drift an old FIAT. Why hadn’t I just kept my mouth shut on the podcast? If I hadn’t blabbed to the world I could back out of this and pretend like it never happened, maintaining some shred of dignity……..but I didn’t do that. I had not only gabbed about it on my own podcast, I had done it on at least one, if not two others. So I was sort of committed. Podcast problems.

Part 1

1974 Fiat 124 Spider built for autocross and occasional track day use. The engine bottom end is basically the stock 1.8L twin cam, but the head has been rebuilt with hardened valve seats, adjustable cam gears and bigger valves. The single Weber carburetor has been replaced with dual Weber IDFs, similar to the setup on the Fiat 124 Abarth. The interior has basically been completely gutted other than the dash and center console. The seats have been replaced with those from a Honda CRX in order to accommodate the harnesses and a roll bar has been installed.
