This is crazy! there are two car auctions right now of cars I had in the 70's and 80's

In college, I had a 1972 Fiat 850 (pos!) https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1972-fiat-850/ Mine was the exact same color, but I had no hardtop or rear luggage rack. Check out the pictures to see the crazy looking distributor cap. The exhaust mounted to this motorcycle size engine was one piece! Header, muffler, tailpipe all one piece! I remember 0-60 being a question mark, but 50+ MPG made a great college car.

Out of college, I bought a Triumph GT6+, Then when I started working for rock and roll bands I bought a 72 BMW 2002Tii. Mine looked just like this one https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1974-bmw-2002tii-17/ except mine had the "roundee" tail lights.

Neither of mine were in as nice shape as these two, but cool to look at these pictures! My 2002 may have started out as nice, but I did modify it a little with a KamII spoiler up front
