Vehicle Detail

THIS 78 FIAT SPIDER IS ONE OF MY PROJECTS I HAVE PUT UP FOR SALE DUE TO MY FOCUS ON THE 71 ALFA SPIDER. I HAVE DECIDED TO SELL IT AT A PRICE THAT YOU COULD CONTINUE THE RETORATION OR USE IT FOR PARTS. THE GREAT THING ABOUT THE 78 MODELS, A TON OF THE PARTS ARE INTERCHANGEABLE WITH LATER MODELS & EARLIER ONES AS WELL. THIS SPIDER HAS BEEN UPGRADED WITH A WEBER CARB & MARELLI ELECTIC IGNITION. THESE 2 ITEMS ALONE MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE IN THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY FIAT. THIS CAR HAS NOT BEEN STARTED IN A FEW YEARS EVEN THOUGH IT RAN & DROVE STRONG BEFORE SITTING. YOU WILL MOSTLY NEED TO DO COSMETIC WORK IF YOU WANT TO RESTORE. HEAD INFO; SERIES 134AS6C.....CASTING 4372291 WEBER CARB; 32 ADF I'LL GIVE YOU ALL THE INFORMATION ON WHAT I THINK SOME BODY WORK IS NEEDED IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS, ALTHOUGH I AM NOT A BODY GUY. I DID NOT PUT IT ON A LIFT, JUST OBSERVED. THE LOWER QUARTER PANELS, FRONT SHOCK TOWERS, FRONT DRIVER SIDE WHEEL WELL, DRIVER SIDE PAN & SEAT SUPPORT. THERE IS SOME SURFACE RUST AROUND THE GAS TANK LID & A FEW OTHER SPOTS AROUND THE CAR. I'LL TAKE PLENTY OF PICTURES TO GIVE YOU A GOOD VIEW OF THE CONDITION. THE DRIVERS SIDE FRAME HAS A SMALL AREA ALSO. THERE MAY BE OTHER AREAS THAT NEED ATTENTION, BUT, I LISTED, WHAT I COULD SEE THAT NEEDS ATTENTION. THE DOOR JAMS & THRESHOLD AREAS, TRUNK COMPARTMENT AND HOOD COMPARTMENT ARE IN GREAT CONDITION. YOU CAN GET A GOOD IDEA LOOKING AT THE PICTURES WHAT WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED OR REFINISHED. ITEMS REPLACED; TOP, GAS TANK, FLUIDS, BATTERY, HOSES, ETC. LIKE I LISTED EARLIER; THIS CAN BE A PROJECT TO RESTORE OR USED FOR PARTS. IF I DON'T GET THE PRICE I WANT I WILL PART IT OUT FOR MORE THAN THE TOTAL PRICE OF THE CAR. I DO HAVE MISC PARTS THAT WILL GO WITH THE CAR. VALUE OF PARTS APROX $3-400. I WILL POST MORE PICTURES THRU A HOST SITE SATURDAY. THE BOOT IS IN GOOD CONDITION, WILL POST PICS WITH TOP DOWN SATURDAY. IF YOU HAVE SEVERAL QUESTIONS, GIVE ME A CALL, THANKS, RALEIGH I CAN DELIVER WITHIN 500 MILES OF ZIP 32136 IN FLORIDA FOR $200. EMAIL OR CALL ME FOR DETAILS. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE ASK BEFORE BIDDING, THANK YOU. Raleigh 386.451.0395 On Sep-18-10 at 09:15:25 PDT, seller added the following information: TO VIEW MORE PICTURES GOT TO
