New Fiat Owner from Kelowna BC

Post by Goolashay »

Hello everyone.

2 weeks ago I found an ad for a 1982 Fiat Spider 2000 in need of restoration. Since then, I found this site, watched a tonne of great YouTube content, and brought that baby home last Friday.

I spent 2 days stripping her down to bare metal, which gave me a great sense of how these cars are really put together, and what needs to be done for my full restoration project.

I have a great winter project ahead of me. Maybe 2 winters :)

I got an 82 in August. Keep posting progress photos. I'm sure you will have fun sorting electric (everything), steering (idler), seals and gaskets.
