Introduction
Hello everyone,
Here is my new project. This beauty is my 1981 Fiat 2000, Automatic Transmission. I had 1978 Fiat 124 Sport when I was a kid.
This car was driven into a body shop waiting area when the owner passed away, but this car has not been started in 14 years.
I started off by replacing the old gas tank with a new Gas Tank. Old Gas tank had crud in it.
I I think I will change spark plugs and wires. Probably shoot some penetrating old inside engine after I pull plugs.
The oil looks new. I have all radiator hoses on order. I think once the hoses come in and I install, at that point I will buy a battery and try to crank it.
Is there anything as owners of a car that has not been started in a decade + I should be thinking about?
I hope to get this thing running soon. Next 45 days.
