Joining the club with a '78

Post by jackevyn »

I am new to the world of FIAT and have already found this site to be extemely informative. I spent 10+ hours on this site in the past week researching a perspective purchase. Thanks to the information I found on this site, I was able to weed out a few bad autos and find the car for me. Its not perfect, but it has solid bones. I am sure I will be spending quite a bit more time on this site learning from everyones experience and hopefully add some of my own. Thanks again! Jackevyn

Welcome to the group! Where are you located? I remember my first spider, well actually it was my dads and I was 15 and "borrowed" it. My first GTA :D and my last.

Welcome, '78 was the year of many transitions, depending on when it was built it may have the 2000 doors, handles, rear axle, etc. So be extra carfull when ordering parts.

Be careful jackevyn. If you get infected by the Fiat virus, you may end up enlarging your garage - as I did :wink:
