Fiat 128 Sport Coupe - a photo on Flickriver

Fiat 128 Sport Coupe

            Fiat seemed to allow their designers a lot more creative freedom when designing their sporting bodies compared to the mass market cars that seemed to stick to the current house style.

A nice photo shot at the races, but I wonder how many society people were won over by the 128SP?

Update:  I've recently uploaded another picture of a 128SP  with the registration NLD872K which had me wondering why it was in the same series of registrations but a year apart.

Having a closer look at this one showed that someone had re-touched the number plates to turn the K into an L.

The did a good job on the front car, but you can still see a faint diagonal line of the K on the rear one.

I checked out this newly found registration & was pleased to see it lasted long enough to make it onto the DVLA system.

It's listed as green, so this might have the registration of another 128 and a bit of plate swapping took place, which Fiat has done elsewhere.  Otherwise it might have been given a respray at some time.

The engine size is given as 1116cc and the last tax as 1 March 1980, though the last V5C was issued on 16 August 1985 so it hung around for 5 years, maybe someone kept it as a project before giving up.
