first car first restoration project

Post by spanishfiatspider »

1971 fiat spider the guy that i bought it from was getting rid of it due to lack of time. He bought it in 1979 and restored it then had a problem with a mechanic who was fixing it and never finished it just gave it to the owner without the head gasket. has been kept in a garage for years and now that i have it i started doing some minor stuff such as paint. the rims were rusted so i bought some. however i am having issues finding a top for it.... (i dont know how to put the pics on here)....

I will post more pictures of the car. I hope once my father and i revive this beautiful machine it would be fun to drive. Any ideas on the color of the top? Black or tan??...
