Concorso Italiano 2010
We made it to Monterey in our 1969 Fiat 500 'Roadster' for Concorso Italiano -- no top meant bundled up with jackets, beanies, glove and, for me, a blanket across my lap. The sun eventually came out and it was beautiful day to hang out with cars, Fiat America friends, food & wine. It was great to see the new Fiat 500, too! It was a fab display and I've signed up to follow the new Fiat 500 with Ciao Fiat. The drive home was a bit of an adventure with ever-fading headlights, but we made it!
