    You had the best car at the event hands down! It is also your best build yet (even beat out the Model T). I love it!

    Congratulations Jared! To have all those aficionados surrounding your car like sharks was to me a major symbol of approval and appreciation of all your hard work and skilled fab work!

    So cool to pull into a show with a 100 old Porsche and have one of the few unique cars that someone didn't restore for you

    Man that thing sounds mean. I owned a Fiat 850 many years ago and I can’t imagine how this car performs vs a stock version. I liked how it drew a crowd before you got out of the car. Awesome build.

    You are an animal. Wow. Congratulations. That is amazing. I watched the whole build and i know it must have been so much harder than you made it look, and it must have taken a lot of your time.

      Thanks for checking out the series. Yes it took about 7 months of working on it full time. It’s probably the coolest thing ever built.

    Suzuki power and reliability, a plus in this car. Yet I keep thinking of what a Ducati engine would have done for the 850; solely for the all Italian theme. Nonetheless, this is probably the most powerful 850 on earth.

    Super cool, for me though I think I would have ran the shift cable around where 1rst was forward & the rest pulling back.. personal preference I guess..lol but absolutely awesome nonetheless!!

    I had the 69 School bus yellow coupe (paid $1450 in 1970 at BMW dealer in Santa Clara) I did s few things lowered and front scooped it and got to 104mph after a few miles. 1/4 mi with a buddy w2as abt 14-15 seconds. The transaxles pull out on hard cornering. A fun car Konis just make it stress more,. Abarth had some answers but I was still in my teens/

    New to your channel and just watched this series. I have really enjoyed watching this build and think you have done a great job.
    The quaife unit saved you lots of work. The car looks and sounds great, after all it's got a high revving bike engine.
    An old fiat from the 70s that wasn't full of rust would be as rare as hens teeth here in UK.

    That is Bitchen. you have done some cool builds. I was thinking it was a later model but it is older than 75 so you dont need smog. But no reverse I guess.

    • @Mikefngarage
      @Mikefngarage ปีที่แล้ว

      you must have modified a reverse gear. IDK I will have to see what you did on that.

    • @Jerod_Helt

    I think that you have a very inspiring story here. I would love to try to do this. Could you make a video on just what it took to do. It terms of tools and machinery? Did you do everything yourself? Do you have a mill? A lathe? I see that you have a welder. Anything else we should know about how complicated something like this would be to do. Thanks. Great project

      @@bernibeckmann9753 Thanks for the suggestion, but I have looked at a lot of his videos, all of the Fiat bike engine build. One thing that I have noticed a lot of the internet. Is that people are pretty vague when it comes to explaining what they do. Maybe you pick up on things quickly, but I always want to learn more. I don't expect a step by step lesson, but I always seem to want more information.
