Hi, gord here in wintry ontario canada (10ft of snow and counting (and no it is not all on the ground, that is the total snowfall so far, only about 4ft on the ground!)
i realize kind of late in the game for this auction but... no bids so probably make offer after auction over (looking for some answers from owner for now) and no not easy to see (other side of the country 3k km (3 time zones) away!
anyway, newbie to pandas but not fiats (have owned 7 fiat spiders including a turbo all long gone as well as a yugo convertible (still a fiat!)
looking for all your sage advice! :worship:
is there anything in particular i should be looking out for on these cars esp. since NO fiat dealerships in Canada ?
i have a very capable import mechanic for those things beyond me (worked on our saabs, fiats, vws, etc.)
but getting parts, the 4wd system, etc. etc.
longevity, known failure points etc. etc. (besides the typical rust/rot of any car but even then, where are they known to go?)
thx in advance
ebay number 120356047349 on ebay.ca
sorry too new to post actual link but it is mentioned in the ebay thread
thx
pls reply to [email protected] since on dialup so SLOW in the forum
someone in the ebay thread mentioned the black lower part covering up stuff >> all very true in rust/rot canada BUT being from Japan more likely just the paint scheme >> owned a mitsubishi jeep j53 and it had maybe 2 specks of rust! (they dont; get our snow nor the need for salt/sand on the roads)
