Fred et al-


Fred has started a good one here.

My first car was a 71 VW Beatle;however, my first purchased car by me was a 
69 Fiat 850! It was less expensive than the others I was more interested in 
and within my budget.

I said to myself that SOMEDAY I will have an XKE and a TR6. I am proud to say 
that I now own them both and they have lived up to my every expectation after 
owning a Fiat!
