1976 Fiat 124 Spider Convertible 2-Door 1.8L
Vehicle Description
1976 Fiat 124 Spider 1800 – 76,818 miles
We have owned this vehicle for 24 years and used it very little (less than 7k miles) and it is time for it to go to a new owner to finish the job or just enjoy it the way it is.
When first purchased it didn't run/drive...brake system & electronics replaced & some very basic body repair & paint completed just to make it look somewhat presentable and drive-able...more work needs to be done if you want it to look good.
To be on the road again, it needs the master cylinder (new - provided) installed & brake bleed...I am just not in the mood or physical condition to deal with it.
Future recommended upgrades/repairs include: finish body work; replace top (approx. $225); replace relay or sending unit for electric cooling fan to be automatic instead of switched (spare parts provided); swap dash (if desired, and is included) due to crack near vents – very common problem; miscellaneous minor items that are typical on a 41 year old vehicle and restoration project...or you can just drive the thing!
But, the following has been completed in the last couple of years: new 13” wider stance tires on previously upgraded wheels; used fuel tank installed; electric fuel pump, lines & filter installed in trunk a couple years ago; plugs/wires/cap/rotor/points & condensers/coil last year; battery this year.
This old girl does fire right up and all gears work – the brakes will grab at a very low driveway speed but otherwise e-brake is required to stop.
Includes used components (electrical, gauges, wiring, interior – dash, and other misc. parts) and new parts (oil filters, sending units, suspension.)
NOTE: please contact me if you wish to pre-inspect things...I am more than happy to accommodate your needs.
And I reserve the right the cancel the auction to sell locally, as it is listed elsewhere online.
A Paypal deposit of $455.00 is required to purchase this and balance in cash is due at time of pick up. I recommend you plan to tow-dolly or trailer it away because of the brakes, and it has not been on the road in more than 2 years, even though it might be drivable using only the e-brake. Bear in mind it is a vintage car and must be treated as such.
Thanks for looking.
