17 years old and im at im a 1st year motor apprentice ,after 4 months in and my elderly boss wanted to help me out by sorting out a my 1st car as i just got my learners ,he gave me a Fiat 124 Coupe 1969 model which he owned since new ,he fully serviced it paid up 12 months registration and roadworthy with a full tank of petrol ,he was so happy and proud to help me out but i hated that little two door european car ,i was so torn because he was so happy but inside i was gutted because this is not what i wanted ,i was looking for a V8 Ford Falcon ,that was 1986 i still have the Fiat and i was so grateful for being employed by one of the best humans to have walked this earth
That is one of the coolest cars and a great story!! If he did that for you, it also showed what kind of young man you were to take the time to help. Good on you!
In 1975 I imported a 1967 Fiat Dino Spider with a factory hardtop sight unseen from Italy to Seattle, WA. for $3,350 delivered. The car had major rocker panel rust that I had repaired for very little money. I drove the car for a couple of years and sold it for almost three times what I had in it. The problem was that I sold it...
I was stationed in Naples, Italy in 1972. A young officer was offered a year early discharge but had to go like today. He was engaged. He sold me his '67 Fiat Dino 2400 Coupe IRS for $1500 ($11,000 in 2023 money). It was Red too. By '73 I had a chance to go Stateside. Gas prices had DOUBLED due to a gas shortage. There were Waiting Lines at the gas pumps. The Dino 6cyl with triple dual webers got a horrible 15mpg. So, being a Young, Broke and Stupid Veteran about to attend University I sold the car in Italy. How much? I don't remember😖. I do recall how great it performed! Like a jet engine. Naples to Rome (136mi) in 1hr.!!
When we were early in our marriage, my wife and I owned two Fiat Spider 200s-here a 1980; mine a 1981. We were ate an Italian car show in the early 90s-my car was in the Fiat corral-when we saw two Fiats over in the Ferrari group. One was a Fiat Dino coupe and the other a Fiat Dino convertible. We stood there admiring them when the owner came up and explained the engine-sharing history. I loved the convertible. It was a Pininfarina design that looked like my Spider had grown up. I thought the coupe-a Bertone design-was beautiful, too, but I'm a top-down guy. My wife continued talking to the owner and she came over to tell me he would sell us the coupe for $10,000. "No," I said, "We already have two Fiats." I'm an idiot. When my Spider finally began to give up the ghost in 2004, she said "You really need a new car." Yeah, i thought, I should really grow up and get Camry or something. "You should get that Lotus Elise you're always talking about," was her response. So I did :) Thank God I wasn't an idiot when it came to marriage.
I have a ‘67 Fiat Dino Coupe 2000, headed to the engine rebuilder now. Everything else is excellent. The 2.4L are the more valued because of the power increase and the IRS. The 2L cars have a live axle rear that’s a bit clunky. Its a tough car to put a value on because while they haven’t gone crazy yet, they’re rare enough that you won’t find an affordable one that doesn’t need a lot of restoration. In other words, the elevator is going up now on these. But at 75k, what other Italian cars are out there with a RACE BRED Ferrari engine in perfect condition? The other models with this engine are the Spyders (2x the price), Dino 206 and 246 GTs (250k+), and the Lancia Stratos (100k+). 75k is a steal.
I am the owner of a Fiat Dino Coupè and an expert on this beauty. Speaking of rust on this car, not to be confused with other Italian cars, at the Bertone factory they immersed the bodywork in a series of tanks for phosphating treatment, exactly as it is now done on modern cars, there is a designer magazine called " Style Auto" volume n°13 of February 1967 in which all the photos concerning all the construction phases of the Dino Coupè are published, including those of the anti-rust treatment. I think the Bertone factory was one of the few in the world to use this method, furthermore the Dino was originally painted with acrylic paints, light years away from other car companies, including German ones.
Wow: What a beauty! I longed to have a Fiat Dino since the Seventies. I never found one I could afford. Once I went to look at one at a classic car dealer. It had rust. In Switzerland, we have salt on the roads in winter and it is humid. So rust is the worst enemy for those vehicles. And they were rare where I live. I have seen much more Ferrari Dinos than Fiat Dinos in Switzerland. I knew only one person who owned one. That is one of the cars I dreamt of owning and I will never have in my garage. This car is one of the prettiest vehicles ever: Like a small and simple version of the Iso Grifo. Well I own more classic cars than I can handle and maintain. But I would be so happy owning this vehicle in this condition. By the way : Those are Cromodora wheels. I bought smaller ones for my Fiat 124 Spider. I sold a set in the late Seventies for 80$. And when I bought a set ten years ago it cost me 800$.
Sweet car and definitely deserves that Red coat. I like his choice of aftermarket upholstery and carpet.... keeps it fresh. And as stated it's a "honest" example as he drives that car ... many more miles Sammy ...cool car.
I've always been fond of the spider version of this car, but was not really familiar with the coupe version. Given the prices of so many other cars today, I'll admit to being surprised that this Fiat Dino coupe didn't appraise for more given the sort of values so many other vehicles are supposedly worth these days. One thing is for sure, Sammy is my favorite owner that you've had on this segment - I love his attitude.
i kept getting distracted. f40! ooh, a BMW m1! testarossa! can you identify the light blue car on the 2nd floor? i can't tell what it is. it's directly over the march and corvette racecars on the ground floor.
The amount of expertise this guy has at giving an accurate appraisal and the amount of research he puts into every single thinkable thing is amazing Hagerty will definitely be my company of choice when I start insuring the interesting cars I wanna buy
The Ferrari 250 GTO once sold for $18k new from factory in 1962, depreciated down to just $4000 in just 3 years and down to $2500 in 1969. It's gained 10,000x in value since then of course
I remember the night I was driving my '74 X1/9 home and crossed paths at a stoplight with a couple driving a Dino Spyder. They dipped their lights at me as we passed, and I dipped mine in return... Which, from their perspective must have been hilarious, as the popups on my car had a semi-stripped spline on the passenger side causing the lights to do this kind of Peter Falk squinting half wink every time they were raised or lowered. I was just blown away that an owner of a Spyder had cared to acknowledge the lowly X1/9 :)
Neat little car, and the coupe looks much nicer than the spider. About 20 years ago there was one at a local auction with a low estimate. However, I opened the driver’s door and the door dropped about 1/2 an inch. The door hinge areas were not the only rusty spots.
This is the kind of stuff I LOVE to see....a beautiful car and a proud owner who's not only enjoyed the car but taken the best care of it that he could. This is what being a "car guy" is really all about
I was stationed with the Air Force over in Germany in 1977 and a friend of mine had a 69 Fiat Dino in his garage. It was green with a gold colored interior. A beautiful little car. When friend was getting ready to move back to the states he offered to trade it to me for my 73 Ford Capri since my Capri was American spec and the Fiat wasn't. He knew he could still import the Fiat but wasn't much interested in the paperwork involved. Anyway, we made an agreement to do the swap (I really don't remember if there was any money involved but I don't think so). Unfortunately, we were having a going away party for one of our coworkers and I had a few beers before deciding to go to a local Winefest. Well I went too fast into a corner with the Capri and totaled it. Luckily just a broken nose and some bruises but basically killed the deal on the Fiat. Always regretted that. I caught up with my friend many years later and found that he did import the Fiat back to the States but later sold it. One that got away.
It's nice to see a lovely old fiat Dino I used to work for a fiat lancia specialist back in the late eightys and early nintys in my opinion one of the best handerling and best cars I ever drove was the LANCIA DELTA I worked on all the H F models and intergale models from the 1.6 early delta to the last 2,0 16v series 3 they had a lot of problems but when they were Wright you could drive them so hard and in my opinion better and faster than the AUDI QUATTRO wich was the next employer I worked for I restored a U r QUATTRO 1989 2144 cc it was so heavy compared to the lancia intergale.
Those Altissimo taillights alone would probably be worth $6000 to a Miura SV owner who needed them. AFAIK, no one is re-popping the chromed plastic housings (although the lenses are available).
This is actually my dream car. I have loved it since sesing it on the film 'The Italian Job'. Out of the two versions I prefer the Mk2 model with the 2.4 litre engine and independent rear suspension.
I love the owner! That guys awesome! Very much agree with your assessment. I have a feeling this guys not gonna let it go anytime soon. Great car, and close to a future $100+ K price.
Well this is my most favourite Ferrari of them all. It looks a bit like US muscle, but has Ferrari muscle and it has size for european roads and cities. It is just majestic. I want to daily it. I just have one problem with it. I just do not like layout of gauges.
@@williamegler8771 Ferrari dino and fiat dino are both majestic, but I like this Ferrari powered Fiat more, that is why I call it Ferrari muscle car, it is a joke, but I also saw some owner put ferrari logo in front grill, and it just looked right.
I just wanna say what a beautiful Italian pony car ! Most by this car is take from Ferrari dino 2.4L four cam v-6 engine and famous Italian designer created this beautiful pretty car ! Even by owner buying this car give a lot love and passion to keep and take care this classic Fiat dino 2400 keep everything since by engine, bodywork, interior, All by Fiat original and keep finest ! Even a little bit up rate electric system making engine can have more performance by engine horsepower and toques ! Most can't believe owner driving daily in this car until today is 100% proofed this car isn't only beautiful ! It is greatest classics car ! This beautiful pretty car just telling all of car collectors and all of petrol head say " Old car never die ! If can giving car more love and patience, can giving car more love and passion and take care well, keeping shining and beauty, old car will return love and passion to owner and showing best to you ! " Since you going to your garage taking your favor car and when you turn on the key start the engine and engine sound will tell you and say " Hi~! Buddy ! Are you ready ? Are you ride with me ? Let's go~!"
@@DavidM-mb1vx i agree with david vincent. I'm not talking overall good/bad cars, just about aesthetic appeal.. the dinos are the only fiats that excite me. i think 124 spyders are alright but comparable to an mgb. of course, there's a lot of local cultural preference based on what you grow up with behind what we think looks good. i have never ever liked the looks of a hatchback, but many brits I know absolutely love them.
A rust free 70´s Fiat Dino is a jewel to be kept... Dry... The price will go up year by year. Given there are only 2400 build imo, the $100K mark will soon be broken.
It's a beautiful design and, to me, more desirable than the Ferrari Dino, and it has more practicality. If it drives great, I think it might not only gain value but would be a more attractive alternative to those that want the "Dino" heritage in their garage. I know I would.
I knew a guy who bought these in the late '80s just to grab a few light housings, gauges and some switchgear that the Dinos shared with Italian exotics built during the same years. It upset me as a teenager to see such lovely cars headed for the scrapyard.
Great Video ! Curios about colour ? Looks to me like Rosso Ossido ? Just to be clear ! There was never such a thing as Ferrari Dino ! Dino was a Brand Enzo designated specific to V6 ( smaller engined Cars ) in honour of his Son ! Dino ! The car you refer to as a Ferrari Dino was never badged a Ferrari ! This was added at dealerships to help sell the cars as no one wanted to purchase the car as a Dino without the Ferrari Badge ! As soon as lovers of quality cars realise this these cars will rapidly increase in value as they should ! 😊 also checkout the specifications that Bertone put into his body shell prep ! It’s incredible ! Sammy lm with you on Value if not Double that ! Keep it as long as you can it’s Gorgeous & every bit a Ferrari as any other 👌🏻🇮🇹
Decades ago my dad bought a cheap Lancia and only kept it a year or so. Examples of those cars in nice condition are now worth over 70k as well. He also used to own a VW T1 Bus once. Such is life...
I had a Ferrari Dino back in the day i paid $6k for it and sold it for the same and was a pile of garbage and was a California car that Fiat would have been better deal
I am watching the Barrett-Jackson auction and I just saw this appraiser buy a Ford GT for 1,250,000!!! Don't know if it was for him or the person he was talking to on his phone?
The front end reminds me of a 1974 Toyota Celica that my Dad used to have, well it was our family car too a 2-door kinda like a sports car and I had to sit in the back.
I know a bit about Fiats ( my Dad had two 600s), one a little beast with some Abarth components). I never heard of the Fiat Dino. Nice little car, particularly the one here. Thanks for highlighting it.
Die Bundesabgasbespaßungsverbotsverordnung und Transporttourismusemissionsbeschränkungsbundesverordnung wird schon bald die Abgasbespaßung und fossile Leistungswertschöpfung verbieten!!!
One thing I noticed is that it had 2 ignition coils mounted on the passenger fender. One was plugged into the distributor as normal but what was the second used for?
Back-up if the first died. It had all sorts of furturist stuff. If oil pressure dropped the engine would stop before any damage. Electric windows had manual cranks I could go on...
Living in the midwest where salt is used on the roads it wasn't unusual to find 1970's Fiat X 1/9's in the junkyard with low miles because of rust after only a few years old.
Cough, cough, Cromodora wheels… My parent’s 2002tii has had a set of Cromodora CD40 “Dino” wheels since 1978. Oh, and they’re the car’s original owners.
I agree with the 75k however if listed on Bring A Trailer and a bidding war ensued the sky is the limit especially in the closing seconds of the auction ..
Hi - Unfortunately, we do not offer any repair services to the public. We only do mechanical work in order to make entertaining videos. Thank you for being a fan!

Just watched the Italian job and wondered what that Maserati looking car was, very surprised it was a fiat. Absolutely gorgeous looking car.

Love it! The front end looks a tad like an Opel Manta from the same period - which isn't a bad thing.
I had to do a double take. Very much a look-alike
The Manta reminds me of a baby Camaro or Chevelle.
Bertone
Yeah, it does or vice versa really. I had an Opel Manta A.
Wow, that car had factory headers! Impressive.
I had a 70's Fiat 124 Coupe hardtop. It was almost the same car with 4 headlights but just a little more boxy looking and yes it was rusted.

Never knew that this Dino even existed. What a gorgeous machine! Has some Jenson Interceptor n Lancia Fulvia vibes

Dino was a Brand Enzo designated specific to V6 ( smaller engined Cars ) in honour of his Son ! Dino !
The car you refer to as a Ferrari Dino was never badged a Ferrari ! This was added at dealerships to help sell the cars as no one wanted to purchase the car as a Dino without the Ferrari Badge ! As soon as lovers of quality cars realise this these cars will rapidly increase in value as they should ! 😊 also checkout the specifications that Bertone put into his body shell prep ! It’s incredible ! Sammy lm with you on Value if not Double that ! Keep it as long as you can it’s Gorgeous & every bit a Ferrari as any other 👌🏻🇮🇹
Pretty sweet car
If it was a Spider it would fetch four times as much. Still, somehow I like how the Coupe looks a little bit more.
What a cool car.
Decades ago my dad bought a cheap Lancia and only kept it a year or so. Examples of those cars in nice condition are now worth over 70k as well. He also used to own a VW T1 Bus once. Such is life...
I had a Ferrari Dino back in the day i paid $6k for it and sold it for the same and was a pile of garbage and was a California car that Fiat would have been better deal
You can find these for 40-50k as well
Nice Isuzu 117 Coupé
Haha. Yeah, they are basically thr same. Nothing against the Dino, but id take the 117 Coupé, because they were put together properly.
Copycat and the isuzu is a 4 cylinder!
Love Fiat, nearly all of them, but can we talk about the Marcos in the background???
Very nice car it strongly resembles an Opel Manta from the front
Alrighth - time to roll in my bicycle 🚲 and get it appraised
I am watching the Barrett-Jackson auction and I just saw this appraiser buy a Ford GT for 1,250,000!!! Don't know if it was for him or the person he was talking to on his phone?
I have a 2400 in blue for sale...
What a beautiful car
Body is very similar to Jenson Interceptor...And like it...
The front end reminds me of a 1974 Toyota Celica that my Dad used to have, well it was our family car too a 2-door kinda like a sports car and I had to sit in the back.
I know a bit about Fiats ( my Dad had two 600s), one a little beast with some Abarth components). I never heard of the Fiat Dino. Nice little car, particularly the one here. Thanks for highlighting it.
So it wasn’t a $2000 car but a $4000 car. Why lie about that?
Because the seller lied to his wife, and now that the secret is out, he’s in big trouble with his ex.
Die Bundesabgasbespaßungsverbotsverordnung und Transporttourismusemissionsbeschränkungsbundesverordnung wird schon bald die Abgasbespaßung und fossile Leistungswertschöpfung verbieten!!!
It was a $4000 car. $2000 check plus $2000 cash.
Shh! 🤫 Don’t let his ex know!
One thing I noticed is that it had 2 ignition coils mounted on the passenger fender. One was plugged into the distributor as normal but what was the second used for?
Back-up if the first died. It had all sorts of furturist stuff. If oil pressure dropped the engine would stop before any damage. Electric windows had manual cranks
I could go on...
@Martin Sage ahhh so it was built with redundancy in mind then. If one system failed there was a back up.
@@thomasdavies7431 Exactly
This car isn’t worth 60K or 90K; it’s priceless.
Living in the midwest where salt is used on the roads it wasn't unusual to find 1970's Fiat X 1/9's in the junkyard with low miles because of rust after only a few years old.
This is what happens when you don't investigate and already look down on someone or something.
Get another appraiser
@ botticelli319 I agree in this situation as this appraisal is far from accurate based on current sales numbers. See my longer comment way above.
Cough, cough, Cromodora wheels… My parent’s 2002tii has had a set of Cromodora CD40 “Dino” wheels since 1978. Oh, and they’re the car’s original owners.
The Dino was not a Ferrari, nowhere on the car or paper work does it mention Ferrari. It was a Dino.
Thank you. Every time he said Dino Ferrari I cringed! A Dino is a Dino.
Anyway, that car had a purchase cost (at least in Europe) of 2 Mercedes SL
Same Dino in Italian Job movie!
I think these were Cromodoras, not Campagnolos. Nice car, though,
Yes Crommadora's.
what are we gonna do? why does it have to be so expensive to enjoy this hobby? my dream cars are just getting further away from reality
Wheels are Cromadora not Campagnolo....
That is a beautiful car. I’d love to go for a ride in that thing.
What flashlight was Colin using under the Dino?
It’s a NEBO flashlight. Check ‘em out!
I agree with the 75k however if listed on Bring A Trailer and a bidding war ensued the sky is the limit especially in the closing seconds of the auction ..
Really nice car. Sixties, early seventies were the peak for Italian carmakers.
❤
To single out Italian cars for rust is a little unfair. All cars from that era were built without rustproofing.
English really rusted😁
So where did the owner get the shirt?
i know one from an old man who doesnt want to sell. has it 30+ years and not toched it once
Six to eight Fiats?! Wow was he a glutton for punishment.
He spent a lot of money on that car over the years... Have no delusions, folks.
Does Hagerty do take jobs from people who need engines rebuilt? Or is that not really the business model of Hagerty?
Hi - Unfortunately, we do not offer any repair services to the public. We only do mechanical work in order to make entertaining videos. Thank you for being a fan!
@@Hagerty I see. Thank you. And thank you for making awesome content.
