Yes for Fiat 124 Coupe 2nd series. Anybody want to claim the E sticker means Seat??

Could it be a Seat? Or were they only exported as Fiat? (as it seems to have a US side-thing)

I doubt if it is a Seat - agree looks ordinary US import Fiat. E sticker probably holiday souvenir unless there is a different explanation.

not that it couldn't be... but in 40 years of living, and 38 years of car watching, i've never seen a seat in person.

I don't know if this is a Seat, but certainly in Spain the Fiat 124 Sport Coupé was produced with Seat badge.

The only logical explanation I can think of for a genuine Seat would be a personal import by someone bringing their used car from Spain when they moved to US. Such things must occasionally have happened, and in early 70s may not have required much updating to the car to comply with US regs - just stick some reflectors on and tweak the light lenses??? So it's possible, but not solid enough to make this a Seat.

Can this be as early as 1968 model year or as early as 1970? :think:

It is Sept 69 onwards 124 [BC] for Fiat - don't know Seat equivalent, but likely to be soon after.

Or perhaps the owner visited Spain and brought an E sticker back as a souvenir.

I think that is the most logical explanation that has been mentioned..

Yes, E was sticker for Spain when travelling out of the country. Seat produced BC 1.6 and CC 1.8, from 1971 till 1975.Total production about 22.000 units. They were equal to the Fiats except for badge, steering in late models and I am not sure about carburetors in those late units. Also they were "better" as the steel used was of higher quality of the fiats, less rust.
