  1974 was indeed the last year for the chrome bumpers on Fiat 124 Spiders. I wrote this history several years ago.

  I chose the Capri. '74 wasn't the best year for one of those, but I really regret having sold my '72 V6 project way back when. I've driven enough of them to know what a great car they are. I've had a BMW 2002, and it's a good car, but the Capri just 'fits' me better. Didn't like the Mazda 808 I drove so not sure I'd dig the RX-3. Sonnetts are cool but not really practical. The Vega and Stag I'd take if it were free. Maybe.

  Moved to the fastest run group so I can drive "flat out"

  My first car was a 74 but I will never considered it as a classic.

  

  That was back in 78. Mine was blue with a black top. It had a 400 CI in it and it was free. Couldn't complain.

  Back to the subject. It will be between an Alfa Romeo GTV or the BMW 2002tii.

  If the 2002 wouldn't have been on the list, I would have gone for the Cosworth Vega. But have always wanted a 2002 since about 1972 anyway. Know what I know about Vega's in general didn't help but the Coswarth part would make it worth it.

  Back then the Jensen Healey. Now who knows.
