going to look at this thing in about 30 min. Talked to the guy on the phone he said the fuse box has corrosion which is what's causing the electrical issues. According to him it runs great and drives nice so I will see about that. Mom not overly concerned with the electrical if it really is just the fuse box I can handle that (assuming I don't catch on fire getting it home)

I know you've probably already looked at it but if any Italian car from the 70's to mid-80's has "fuse box has corrosion...causing electrical issues" run fast and run far because these cars have build quality issues already (especially Fiat since the workforce was pretty much all communist and were more interested in striking, protesting and fomenting insurrection more than building cars, and when they were actually on the assembly line they dabbled in "bringing the decadent capitalist system down" from the inside).
Also corrosion in the fuse box means that water got in it at some point so you'll be chasing down electrical gremlins forever. The only thing worse than a malaise Italian electrical system is the pure evil that is Lucas Electric.

this one actually looks like real corrosion to the fuse box. its also been a vegas car all its life so unless it got rained on with the top down on one of the 3 days per year it actually rains here...
I can deal with electrical issues on carbed cars too as its simple electronic stuff. No computers and sensor arrays to deal with.
