Indoors is very good! Weather report is high in high 30's ... low in mid
20's ....
But, can I still smoke cigarettes, or should I bring nicotine pacifiers ?
I'll call you today (Wednesday).

I had a really old Spyder, back in the 70's.

One of Fiat's better efforts.

I remember watching an old episode of "I Spy" with Bill Cosby. They rented a
Fiat to cross the mountains. It broke down.

Good example of type casting.

IMHO only thing worse than a Fiat motor is a Russian built Fiat motor. Or
Yugoslavian one- yup, the Yugo was Fiat powered.

OK. That's about 1200 lbs. Which is still goddam heavy!
