After the fiasco that was finding a new lower radiator hose I ordered a spare to keep on hand. I then started thinking of what possible spare parts should I start accumulating when searching for bargain parts.
What are the absolutely necessary spare parts that I should be looking to acquire a spare or two of?

A dual relay, aux. air regulator, cold start valve... wait a minute. You have a '73.
Never mind.

Like they said and bulbs, fuses and spark plugs. Heck, I just keep extra cars around.

I keep fuses, a couple of hoses, alternator belt, some relays and FI sensors. Really, you can get virtually any part from the Fiat suppliers in 3-5 days, so it isn't necessary to keep a bunch of parts lying around unless you have (or had) a parts car.
