Re: can everyone post a pic of their spider?
Yes, The megasquirt seemed to be the best option to make the most of what has been done. I'm real happy with the system and performance. The RPM range is limited by the throttle body but this is a fun street car and I don't anticipate running it at 7000 RPM's.
Buon giro a tutti! - enjoy the ride!

When I was rebuilding the car, I thought that the clock wasn't a big deal. Now that it is done I wish I had taken the time to get it repaired as well. The clock will be my reminder not to take shortcuts until I get it repaired Thanks for the kind words, I really have enjoyed the project so far!

I bought a spare plastic lens for my Mag-Lite flashlight and used it to replace the lens in my Fiat's clock. Worked great!

Re: can everyone post a pic of their spider?
Here's my 1977...
Some new additions that you can't see in the pics:
1. New exhaust system: IAP 4-2-1 Manifold, custom mid-pipe, ANSA muffler
2. New convertible top. Was much easier to install than I thought!
3. New Weber 34ADF carb.
4. New wooden steering wheel. Looking to carve a new dash like that picture that's been floating around.
5. New Pertronix Ignitor and Flamethrower coil (had to re-locate the coil away from the exhaust side because it kept overheating).
6. Headlights have turn-signals in the bottom. Anyone know the proper wattage that the relays are expecting, I still get a fast blink.
Now it's running beautifully! Well, except for this exhaust manifold gasket issue, I've got another post about that...
Okay, that last one isn't mine... Well, in a way it is. It was one I purchased for $50 for some parts, mainly the rear axle-housing because the shock mounts were rusted through on the white one.... turns out they were rusted through on this one too (go figure). But that is me!

My '74 just came back from the painter. Waiting for my newer rear bumpers and thinking about cleaning up the rims...

Re: can everyone post a pic of their spider?
G'Day All, I've been a tad quite on spider.com for a bit, I just got my recent pics with my current wheels (soon to be replaced by the CD68's) . It was taken yesterday as I spent the day at a ractrack 1.5hrs south of Sydney called Wakefield park. I had a blast.
Cheers David
