Spider 850

[850]

Hi!

I´ve got a Spider 850, but I got it by pieces.
I need some thing that I have been looking for, with no luck at all. I´ve been building it and I just need a few things.
I found this forum, and I hope someone can help me.

These are the things I need:

- A dashboard
- Upholstery
- A bonnet

If someone could tell me where to find these things...
To buy in internet, a shop you know.... anything, please!!!

Welcome to the Forum, and congratulations on your 850. I've always wanted one of those!

Where are you located? I have an engine cover lid -- don't know if that's what you meant by bonnet, or if you are looking for the front hood.

As fas as upholstery goes, I also have a set of 124 spider front seats, and don't know if they are adaptable to the 850.

I'm in Ventura, CA.

There used to be a place that sold parts and had a specialized group of guys for rear engine fiat's in Highland Park
not sure if they are around anymore, could try posting something on fiatcenter they have a 850 section this site
is mainly geared toward the 124 crowd .

Hi 850, welcome to the forum. Do you check out the Fiat related sales on Ebay? I see things for the 850s there all the time.
Good luck.
