'63 1500, '63 1500, '64 1500, '69 2000, and '70 1600 owned by Gary Lasater.



'63 1500 This is one of the first 300 Roadsters imported into America. With a single SU carb and a 3rd seat, Gary's '63 provides us with the broadest range of roadsters in a single club!



(note: same car, same color, different camera's. I would say the most 'correct' color is the red (above))



'70 1600 Before and After pics:

'69 2000 Gary sez: ...with the removal of a gazillion leaves and layers of grease off the engine, a new battery, oil change, antifreeze, gas....and ....VAROOM. The beast CAME ALIVE. Runs like a champ. Everything but the tach works, has extra electric cooling fan (that works) electric fuel pump and runs out WAY FUN. Will have some major rocker panel rust removal and replacements. Need to replace the top back windows. HEY - FOR FREE, who's complaining!
