Any repro owners manual or .PDFs out there?

[Fiatlanta]

Just for fun, looking for an owners manual to throw in the glove box of my '79. I've seen some originals, I guess, for like $70-80...I'm not THAT interested lol. Anyone know of a repro or .PDF that I can print off?

Thanks!

I believe that dinghyguy has a very nice reproduction of my 1979 Fiat Spider Owner's Manual at mirafiori.com. We conspired to get a copy there, since I have an original (that I bought cheap 18 years ago!) in my glovebox,...
You should find it there.

Thanks! I'll go take a look.

[wetminkey]

Please let me know if you find it and like it. I haven't looked for it.
If you don't find it, dinghyguy sent me a .pdf and I can email it to you. PM me here about what you find on mirafiori.com,...

It is there, I have seen it

I found it and downloaded it.

Now I'm looking into getting it printed up to look halfway decent.

On that note...what are the actual dimensions of the booklet..?

Thanks.

[wetminkey]

My original is 14.9cm x 20.9cm.
I'm VERY pleased that it is available online! Glad you got it!! dinghyguy did a fantastic job,...
Isn't this a great forum?!

I printed mine double sided ont he top half of an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper and then trimmed the bottom off. seemed to work ok. I then stapled it.

if you are really clever you can print it double sided on 11x17 two pages wide then if you have a long stapler make a proper booklet after trimming.

cheers

and thanks to todd for sending the original scans.

Gonna try to find some fancy paper tomorrow... I'll let y'all know how it turns out. Thanks!

[wetminkey]

I'm glad that my one manual has been of such good use for so many! But now I really wish I'd spent a little more time checking, and redoing, those initial scans,...
I NEVER thought that many members would want a copy!
I'm just glad that the info is out there for everyone to access. Fiat literature is not easy to come by,...

Hi Dingyguy, can you tell me where to find the owners manual on Miriafiori.com please (can't see it anywhere !)
Thanks

no problem,
you have to be registered on Mirafiori and then you see the library part of the forum.

Prepare to be dazzled by the amount of information!
The manual is under 124 then Owners manuals

enjoy.

[wetminkey]

Ok,...I still can't find anything on mirafiori.com!
How is it done? How do you register and sign in,...and how do you access any literature?
Tell us how it's done, dinghyguy!

[dinghyguy]

First you send me money...….., lots of money, in small unmarked bills, in us$ not that low value cash we have here in Canada

then you go here:

https://www.mirafiori.com/forum/index.p ... 81b0082060

there is a small "register" word beside "login" on the top left, down a couple of rows.
click on that, do what it says, then you need to wait a day or two for the site to approve you as i recall.

then when you come back to the very same location you will see the Library folder and can search to your hearts content.

good luck
the poor poor dinghyguy

[wetminkey]

AH HA!
It's part of the forum,...cool. I think I'll create a separate thread to highlight that fact. I looked long ago, and gave up after not finding a link to the literature. I don't know why I didn't inquire further (guess, 'cause I already OWN one!).
I just took an email request for the '79 Owner's Manual, because another member had the same experience,...
Thanks, dinghyguy,
