1977 Spider owner

Post by sdebaker »

Just bought this. It's my fifth FIAT. Had an 850 Spider and three X1/9's. We own only special-interest cars -- Italian, French, British and German at present.

Car is a 6 out of 10. Good body, fair interior, almost-acceptable top -- rip along the side of rear window. Will be my daily driver.

Located in the Portland, OR area. any FIAT activities here? Any good, used-parts sources in the area?

Nice to hear you only own special interest cars! Life is too short to own boring cars :-)
I just added a German classic as a second daily driver.
Performance Apex is in WA I believe, they are a shop specializing in Fiats.

Welcome. There are several forum members that live in the Portland area but I am unaware of any organized club or such. There are also several of us in the mid valley (I am in Corvallis). Mine is a 1975. Do a search on this forum on how to post pictures -- we love pictures :D Let us know how to help -- there is a wealth of super folks here who are more than happy to chime in.
