The following are classified adverts from the Fiat Twin Cam Register dating from late 1994 through the first half of 1995.

WARNING: You are likely to cry into your tea/beer/coke/etc when you see the availability and prices of those items that we treasure so highly now!

i wonder if any of those 131 sports are stashed away?
i think we need the use of the tardis for a few days & bring them home lol!

[theredx19]

There are many of them in the back of barns that we dont know about as I was only talking to a lad yesterday who was telling me about some old yokes they had tucked in the barns...

[sid131]

my mate Paul bought a 131super years ago for breaking & when the were finished with it it was dumped in a quarry beside 2 old fords granada & escort i think well we revisited the scene of the crime last year & all that remained of the 131 was a door pillar & the escort was in similar condition as it was 20 years ago

Yes, I was Chairman of the FTCR back then Jason, but left as soon as the current "Management" took over

Not quite sure what you're driving at with the "taking over the world" comment Jason. If it wasn't for people like me who stood up to be counted once in a while forum such as this one (which I along with two of my best friends was instrumental in forming) would not exist! It's very easy to shoot down the people who make the effort as it's them (and here I mean ME) that do the writing and get written about!

I think he means your 'overtaking the world' in your fantastic stradale 
Fabulous job simon -I for one -even though not a 131 owner (at present) do appreciate all you and fellow members do to keep this forum going and the time involved in keeping it going 
I like many -work hard and long hours -but enjoy spending time reading stories and seeing pictures  of when the world used to be more fun -winding down the  days work by thrashing my sport-orange or silver    all the way home down country lanes was great fun and took the weight off the days troubles-I miss those days and if it was not for this site and the good people like yourself -those days would have been forgotten- I for one am grateful-as i am sure are many others

Thanks for your support Curt. Much appreciated.
