A Yugo, A Fiat





I couldn't believe my eyes today when I saw this Yugo. It was in pretty good condition. When I was high school a group of the boys took the Yugo owned by an RA and put it into a fountain. At least it was dry fountain, and the RA took it in good humor. When I was reading the Wikipedia Article about the Yugo I was surprised to learn that it had been designed by Fiat. My dad had Fiat, like the one in the model advertised below, and it was so much fun.

I remember the Fiat! Dad loved that car. Enough, as I remember, to buy it while Mom was out of town. I'm amazed he made it through that with his life, much less the car.

Every once in a while I see one of those Fiats around and it always makes me think of dad tinkering with his.
