In 1974 FIAT launched the 128 Special version of the 1970 European Car of The Year that Enzo Ferrari drove.

The specifications of the 128 Special appear to have varied from market to market, but generally they had four doors, either 1100 or 1300 engines and distinctive rubber mouldings down the waist line of the body and on the front and rear bumpers.

The 1974 128 Special 1100, seen in this photo taken in Hamburg, has non standard fog lamps and FIAT X1/9 pattern alloy wheels.

Thanks for joining me on this “Rubber Mouldings” edition of “Gettin’ a li’l psycho on tyres” I hope you will join me again tomorrow when I will be looking at the last in the current series of Formula Junior open wheelers. Don’t forget to come back now !
