    I'm looking for a FIAT Strada (or "Ritmo", as they were badged for ROW). Prefer 2 door, Abarth even better. Please post or PM if anyone knows of a good one (no projects) available.

    Thanks!

    Jack.

    I check the Fiat listings every day on the Seattle Craig'sList site, and I don't recall ever seeing a Strada for sale. I was working at a Fiat dealership in Seattle in 1979, and we sold quite a few of them. Someone probably has about 25 of them sitting in a pasture.

    Edit: Hey, that was my 5,000th post here!

    Congrats on the 5K!

    I bought a 2 door Strada new in the late 70s. It was actually a great little car. I still remember "rallying" it on logging roads in North Carolina. I was really stupid back then. But fast! Let me know if you see one for sale!

    Jack.
