I worked briefly for Fiat England in the late 1960s. My job was driving a Fiat 500 van across town between the parts dept. and the body shop. You could park it in the trunk of the average American car of the era. They had some cool cars -- 124 Sport, 124 Spider, 125 . . . plus the occasional Ferrari . . .
Some years later in Florida I bought a Fiat 850 Spyder. Neat little car -- I put a bicycle flag on it so I could find it in parking lots. At work (Gulfstar) I parked next to a Corvette -- 8 cylinders each with the capacity of my engine. But . . . that car anticipated the European work week by a few decades and would only start on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, except when it would only start on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Fortunately, we also had a Fiat 128. Neat little car with its own foibles, but it died at quite a young age -- less than 5 years -- when a front wheel almost fell off because the body frame had rotted away. Guess they don't use salt on the roads in Italy (we were in New England by then).
