This is my Hobart car. I bought it in 1989 while I was restoring my first car, an 850 Sport. I was so stunned by the 128 that the 850 was never finished (and is still in the shed waiting). After an unfortunate incident involving a 17 year old's inability to handle a tail-out situation in a front wheel drive car on gravel, the right hand side got a bit bent when it pressed against the ground. People had always said to back off - wrong! Many years and lots of hard work later, the hours were put in and I'm almost happy... The car is now totally resprayed and runs like a watch.It pulls all the way to 8000rpm which I use as a limit. The more I rev it, the better it goes.
Al Cosentino once said that if your Fiat will rev to 4 grand, then it will rev to 8. If it won't then it's already got a problem.
