Fiat Ritmo Cabrio
So, I did it. I found one.
How did I do it?
No idea.
After a summer in Germany with a friend...
I was able to drive his '82 Fiat Ritmo Cabrio.
I fell in love.
I wanted one so bad but since I live in the USA....
and the Ritmo Cabrio was never sold here...
my only option was importing one.
Only the 2 and 4 door Strada from 79 until 82 were ever availible (I own an 80).
Well, I met a guy at a Fiat show in November.
He saw my Strada and came running over saying that he had one.
Well, turns out its a series 2 cabrio.
We have been talking ever since and last week he emailed me.
He was selling it.
I threw the money at him and grabbed the keys.
I am a very proud owner of a 55K mile Fiat Ritmo Cabrio.
The car has ZERO rust, a mint interior and a perfect drive line.
The electrical is a disaster but not nearly as bad as my Stradas was.
I am very excited to have one of 3 Ritmo cabrios (before this car, only two were known of, both a mess) in the USA!
