Up for sale is my 1975 Fiat Spider. I've had her for a few years and she's always been garaged and has never seen rain since I've owned the car. Before I bought the car she was owned by a car collector and stored in a warehouse for about 10 years. Because she has been out of the weather for approximately 15 years she's in pretty good shape aside from some surface rust in a few spots. While there is some surface rust in a few spots, the trunk lid has cosmetic cracking of the bondo, and some rust under the driver's floorboard (all pictured) the car is very structurally sound.
I have upgraded several things over the last few years. Below are some of the details on the car, the upgrades I've done, and extra parts that come with the car.
The car itself
•1975 Fiat Spider 124
•1.8 L Dual Overhead Cam Engine
•5 Speed Manual Transmission
•4-wheel disc brakes
Upgrades
•Ziebart undercoated
•New high output 95 amp alternator
•New hidden Bluetooth radio with iPhone/iPod connection
•New fuel pump
•New coolant hoses
•New muffler
•All Italian gauges
•Newer spark plugs and wires
•Serviced and tuned up this spring
Extra Parts
•Trunk lid and luggage rack
•Two sets of kick panels for the foot wells (one with speaker cutouts and one without)
•Various other parts that I kept from a former parts car are also included
If you saw the car on here previously I put the original set of wheels and tires back on the car and have lowered the price significantly. Be aware the tires that are now on the car are old (they say made in West Germany on them) and need to be replaced so it should be trailered home. The size these wheels need are 185 70 13 tires.
I believe the car was redone in terms of exterior and interior at some point in the late 1980s because it has fiberglass front fenders, has been repainted and has new seat upholstery. The interior is in great shape aside from cracking on the dash pad. It even has nice cloth seats instead of vinyl so it doesn't burn your legs on summer days.
Again, the car is in pretty good condition for one of it's vintage and runs well. I'm not mechanically inclined but the mechanic where I take her specializes in older Fiats and has told me she is in good shape. I would only drive her on nice days because I liked to take care of her and keep her out of the rain. She's a good little car and I will be sad to see her go but I just don't have the opportunity to get the car out of the garage often enough. I'd rather someone else get some enjoyment from this little Fiat rather than keeping her locked away in the garage.
I will end the listing early if the car sells locally first. Buyer is responsible for pick up in 41048 (near Cincinnati, OH).
If you have questions please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks for looking!

“The car is in pretty good condition for a vehicle of it's vintage. There is surface rust on a few spots on the car (mainly top and driver's door), body filler above the wheels, cracked body filler on the trunk lid, and rust under the driver's floorboard (all shown in photos). The car seems to have been restored sometime in the late 80s and has been completely out of the weather for about 15 years. I bought the car out of a warehouse where it was stored for aprox. 10 years so it's a bit of a barn find. Since I've owned the car it has been garaged and never driven in rain or bad weather. The car was also undercoated by Ziebart, which is why a majority of the under body is in great shape. The windshield wipers don't operate. Sometimes the ignition wires behind the key need to be jiggled to get the car to start. This doesn't happen very often and there is a light that indicates it. The top has a rip in the rear vinyl window. Tires are old and need to be replaced before driving.” |
