Hey Jake! Welcome. If you've no previous experience with Fiats, you will find that the owners are one happy, generous, knowledgeable community who are happy to encourage and educate on the feeding and care of your little Italian stallion.

One question; is it a '78 or a '79? For one thing there was quite a transition between those years in styling changes. Personally, I prefer the pre-79 styling, especially the taillights (but I don't like the flush door handles or flattened hood bumps either! :) ) If you're not sure, show us a couple of pics or the vin and we can decode it for you.

Tell us the story. How did you come by the car? Why a Spider? etc.
