Share your wisdom... please

Post by CaptEd »

Hey guys, I'm new here and to the fiat world, I just purchased a 78 spider. Shes nice, but I wish to do a lot of work to her to make her purfect.
Can you guys share with me some of the websites you use for parts.
I want an entire brake system, new seats, maybe some nice rims, a stereo system. etc etc etc.
I have googled fiat and found many sites.... But you guys probly know better than me.
so... please share you finds. Thanks Ed
