New Member - Just purchased 1979 Spider 2000 Father/Son Project
Hello All - Just purchased an awesome father/son project for my son to celebrate his moms Italian heritage and our love for Italian motoring. The "Bambino" is a 79' Fiat Spider 2000. While she runs very very rough, we are looking forward to the hours and hours of fun of getting her back to former glory. We are looking for as much info, advice and knowledge as we can get.
