    You're welcome, Raj.

    Lots of interesting trivia. This comment caught my eye:

    "Its Marchal lights appear to be the originals, with a yellow bulb in the large center light."

    Sound familiar?

    My favorite Abarth is the 207a Boano Spider, and the Record Monza.

    Abarth 1600 OT....

    Got a ride in one of these in about 1968 .....

    Think Alfa GTA with the engine in the rear and about 100lbs. less...

    In the first 3 grears this little car hit you about as hard as ANY street race V8 on Van Nuys Blvd......

    As it turns out I'm having this one delivered later today, it needs an engine rebuilt but other that it is in excellent shape.

    Nice little car, but rather on the slow side only 850cc.
