1971 Fiat 124 Sport Spider convertible sold and originally delivered in California currently with clear California title non-operation status less than 36K miles on speedometer No rust This a rare opportunity to own a 1971 Fiat 124 Sport Spider with mostly all original parts. A true California car with NO RUST. With a little work, this Fiat will run well and turn heads. This is a preservation example waiting for the right owner. After an engine rebuild by the previous owner in @ 1996 the transmission developed problems and the car was not driven, but maintained. The photos of the trunk, door jambs, interior, gas filler, and engine compartment are original and wiped clean but not retouched. The interior and tonneau cover were wiped clean but not enhanced with "Armorall" or restoratives. The previous owner had another 124 spider as a daily driver and a trove of spares collected in anticipation of Fiat's retreat from America. Shipping and delivery at buyers expense. Sold as is, in non-operating condition. Contact me through eBay with questions.

The brakes are not working do to non-use. Peddle goes to the floor. In need of inspection/fluid. Emergency brake works perfectly. 3.
