Hi everyone.
I finally bought a Fiat Spider (1980 2000 w/F.I.) after 30 years of yearning for one. I love the way my car makes me feel. I love the way my car makes others feel -- the looks, the comments, etc. It's Grigio Fumo Met w/ beige interior and I am having a blast tinkering with it. I look forward to new friendships and the comradery that goes with owning one of these cool machines. This forum is absolutely great. I've gotten tons of useful information from it already.

Re: Hello from Fort Collins, CO
Welcome aboard! 81 Spidermatt is right that this is a great forum. I too agree that I probably would have given up on the car too. It would have just cost too much to have all the work done by someone else. But there are lots of friendly and very helpful people here.

Re: Hello from Fort Collins, CO
Your car looks to be in very good shape. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have mine. It has been over 100 here for the last few days, so I have been driving it in the mornings as I don't realy enjoy driving it when it is over 95.
Best of luck
