1975 Fiat Spider 1800 - Fort Worth, TX

[TXSpider1992]

Hello all!

Just posting to say hello from Fort Worth, Texas.

I am delighted to announce that I was able to purchase a 1975 Fiat 124 Spider 1800 project car from a gentleman here in the DFW area. The car had been sitting, covered, for about 8 years until I stumbled upon it on craigslist. I was told that the car was running fine when parked by their son before he joined the military.

Here it is:









While there is a small hole in the floor pan near the pedals, the rest of the body is virtually rust free! I have ordered a replacement top (goats apparently stood on and ripped the old one?), and will begin working on the rest of the car this weekend.


I will create a restoration page as soon as I start work on this beaut this weekend. Should be a fun car!

Hi,

I'm in Colleyville. There is a local club in DFW, we get together every 2nd Saturday of the month.
There is also a loose-knit Texas club. All very friendly people who are willing to help.

Loose-knit? Bah! How about an awesome group of like-minded individuals who periodically get together in variously wonderful places, and Dallas
