I was just given a 1973 Fiat Spider that has had two previous owners. The last owner took it apart in 1987 judging by the 1986 plates on the car. As you can imagine there are a lot of missing and unknown parts. This is like doing a jigsaw puzzle with no picture. This should be a fun challange after rebuilding British cars, Italian rust instead of British. Probably going to have lots of questions when I start to assemble and search out parts.

Re: Hi from British Columbia Canada
Hi there. Yes there is endless support and suggestions here for these Fiats.
Where abouts are you? I have several parts cars at the shop in Summerland for an ongoing project.
If it was a daily driver in Vancouver,you'll be wanting to check the shock towers and lift the carpet and check for holes in the floor. The winters were really hard on these cars.
