I had a 78 X1/9 from 79 to 85 and it was my daily driver in Edmonton. Bitter winters and all, the little Fiat was a fun car. Never a problem with rust but the electricals were sometimes an adventure. I did all my own work including clutch and transmission stuff and did a little auto crossing up at the old Edmonton Speedway (now long gone). The only thing it lacked was HP but it handled like a slot car. I wish I still had it.
