Thanks for the kind words.
I've had it for 6 years and love it. Prices are still pretty good ($5-15k) but for the first time I'm seeing signs the price is going to head up into the 20s soon. Highly recommended for a "starter" classic car...cheap and easy to fix. Plenty of spares on eBay. Most important thing on these cars is getting good body with as little rust as possible. Amazons are cool too.
If you like to fix shit, these cars are under $3000 every day in semi-beat condition. $1500 even. Get one and have a ball. Check IPD.com and look at what you can get for it or any old Volvo.
Easy to get at all the mechanicals...but bodywork is kinda a beast cus it's so curvy.
4 cylinder 1.8 and the Abarth exhaust sounds great.
The styling was done by Frua during the same time it designed cool-ass cars like the Maserati 3500GT - which looks almost identical and costs between $150-250K! Yea that's like 50x more...
And the ES1800 wagon is slick too - it's often considered the first "crossover" vehicle made.
I had a p1800 and a 122s (Amazon). Same drive trains and very easy to work on. P1800 has no open body seams except where doors and hoods meet the body. Great car and the drive trains are near indestructible with that old European idea of sports cars: moderate motors, moderate handling and great looks. Thanks for sharing yours with us.
