Ouch!!!!!!!

That sucks. Did he hit the tree in the one pic? Looking at the aftermarket steering wheel, I think I'll keep mine stock.

He did one hell of a nice job on the build, must have been a beast.

yep, he hit the tree. broke an arm and a leg. The car actually featured in our local car mag here called speed 'n sound. The July edition

Damn. I was gonna say to post some videos of it but after scrolling down further never mind LOL

Sad.

Damn, I remember when he was building that up...

wow...that truely sucks!

its nice to see other options than the boat:)

Wow, I am sorry to see that, that is a rare car just to begin with. Hopefully it can be fit with another Fiat 131, doesn't have to be an Abarth model, except for the flares. Fix it! The car is famous and worth fixing.

looked pretty sweet before it died. too bad. hopefully it gets a FMIC next time around

Very sweet ride, and at the same time very sad. Only part of the car I didnt like was the shifter knob.

if he didnt have that roll cage in there, wow, that would have been a mess..=( those things are amazing, the original twin cam motor sounds so amazing but thats a good looking car, fiberglass body it looks like??

thats f@$#Ked up! is the motor ok is he going to rebuild

Did anyone notice the piston shift nob? Sort of ironic…..

^^^ I did. I laughed my ass off LOL

So it's true. Fiat really does stand for Flying Into A Tree.

LMFAO to that^ but we want answers to questions

Might of hurt a little more if he was on our side of the car. Look how fast I can go! What a waste...

is the motor/turbo okay :D Shoulda put it in a Skoda :)
