Classic 1979 Fiat 2000 Pinin Farina Spider in 'patina' condition. This vehicle was stored in a barn since 1991; I bought it a year ago. Everything works other than there is one headlight out, and the rev counter is non-operational. This car is in original condition with nothing new added, so it's ready to be restored. The red paint has faded, some of the rubber is drying out, and the engine needs a tune-up. There may be a need to do some work on the exhaust system. the roof is in a watertight condition, the stereo even works! (the only new thing on the car is a couple of new speakers). 1979 is the model just before they added fuel injection, so working on the engine is relatively simple. The vehicle has a rare and desirable automatic transmission that works well. The tires will need replacing, and the chrome on the bumpers will need redoing. I've done some of the simple work to the engine (spark plugs, fuel line, carburetor tuning). I have the original manual, the car book, and a new restoration and maintenance manual. There is also a designer sleek garage that can come with the vehicle. This vehicle is ready for restoration and a considerable hike in value. I'm only selling because the family is moving back to New Zealand. |
