Our Classic Fiat Failed EPICALLY The First Time, Let's See If It Can Tackle This "Road Trip" 

Why not put the box on the passenger seat?

Yes. here in Italy a lot of people upgrade the original 28 carb to a 30 or 32, then they use electronic points and distributor. It's a little funny car, it doesnt cost much but to drive you need some skills.

Lose.

Or a vespa, krietler, thomos

not a car though is it? i believe that Japan werent allowed to produce (or at least export) cars for a period of time after the war. not a huge fan of any of the 4 'peoples cars' mentioned that you have, but, of the 4, i personally would take the classic mini, as an overall package.

@@petelattimer6808 It has a motor and wheels. In post-war Japan, that was big. Starting in 1951, Toyota made the Land Cruiser for Japan's National Police Reserve (as a domestic alternative to the Jeep). It predates the Super Cub by 7 years and had four wheels but it was hardly a "People's Car". I still think they should get a Super Cub for the series.

Great idea. I hope they see your comment.

As an unfortunate individual, having driven a 120 gls for more years than i want to remember, I have to say that a Skoda is absolutely the worst POS ever conceived by man

@@juslitor I believe the earlier models to yours without the radiator in the front were good.

​@@Malc664 yes, I also imagine the preceding model must have been better. Can´t imagine anyone sane bothering with a POS that is worse than what my 120 was. I must admit the 120 was good at something, it had pretty good rear wheels grip in the winters. Downside was the front wheels didnt have much grip at all, I used to have a 40 kg weight in the front trunk during winters to give the steering some more authority. Still ended up losing grip on front wheels first, then fishtailing.

Mortons are very popular in the Northern Plains, Western Midwest, and in lower Canada Prarie. I live in South Dakota and My parents work in a mid to late 1960's Morton building as part of the East Pierre Landscape and Greenhouse and one of the barns that needs to be taken down is a beyond basic version very little electricity Morton Building the most basic of the big barn style that is comparable to a crappy very low cost modern big steel barn that Menards sells just was not built well and has suffered from lack of repair and cheap repair from previous original owner of the company Tommy Tompson who was born in 1930's and was forced as a kid to be too frugal a trait he carried into his business.

Except there's no driving a FIAT 500 fast 😂

Otherwise the bill is a bit high for that!

Considering that Tommy is almost that tall, you might fit.

"Drive it like you stole it" is the accepted method ...

We just did actually before this vid. It has new weights in the distributer and the engine timing is now sorted. What kills the performance is the altitude we live it: 2000 meters! (6000 feet)

Also - if you want some more performance... get a 28IMB carb from a (Polski) Fiat 126. It will give you a few horses... anything matters if you have 18.5 HP. Hope you get that sorted!

Surely putting the box in the front passenger seat would have been more logical?

The transmission would explode as soon as you hit the pedal; not that the tires could retain traction anyway. Maybe with Hyabusa tires and power train, but at that point just get a side by side rated for road use.
