73 Fiat Spider

Post by somatdad »

Don't know why I didn't find this forum earlier as there are a lot of great spiders to see. I have a 73 spider that I have fixed up some but was unable to find a picture. I do have a picture of a project that I conceived in 2007 and then started working on last year. I think I will post more in the custom section as that seems more appropriate as it is a custom Fiat.

Lets see if I read the how to post picture thread correctly. Anyway, looking forward to checking out other spiders.

Hi, Somatdad and welcome to the forum. Are the door weld tabs so you kept alignment when replacing the sills? (I assume the sills are replaced.)

The door weld tabs are to help with keeping the entire body from flexing and maintain the reveals around the door frame.
