Up for reluctant sale is a 1978 Fiat X1/9 that has had over $40,000 invested in to it, the respray was $10,000 which shows the quality to this day.The car is mechanically a full Prototipo without the body kit and is reserved in its look, as a sleeper.
Fitted with the Lancia two litre engine and five speed gearbox, upgraded brakes and suspension. The car is fitted with a Haltech fuel injection system with four Haltech throttle bodies and computer system. The car is fitted with tailor made extractors giving a great engine note. The engine has done less than 5000 Ks since it was reconditioned and fitted.
The Simmons wheels and new tyres cost $4000 alone and the interior and both boots have been fully re-trimmed.
The main thing is the car is fully engineered and should pass a RWC or permit inspection as it did in Victoria with the engineering documents provided and signed off with the car.
I have a Haynes workshop manual with the car not pictured.
I have way to many registered vehicles and unfortunately I am selling and downsizing part of my collection due to compete lack of use, today was the first time I have driven the car in 12 months and it has always been stored inside a insulated building.
The starter needs a heat shield and the car could do with a tune as its tending to run a little lumpy at the moment and I attribute this to it being idle for to long.
I am pricing the car to sell with a classified advertisement at a sensible price of $13,950 and my loss is your gain. This is a wonderful club car for a enthusiast.
Thank you for looking and if you wish to inspect please contact me on 0402096869.
