Fiat Spyder 2000

[Worktruck]

I have a chance to trade some labor for a 1981 Fiat Spyder 2000. I thought I'd ask the members if they have any knoledge of these little toys before I get hooked into the deal. The car seems to be in good condition body and frame wise, the paint is not original and I'll need to do some investigation as to any body filler used. The interior needs to be restored, it's not trashed or anything just shows wear for it's age. It has a 1995cc four cylinder fuel injected engine with a 5 speed tranny. The body is by Pinnanfarina (sp). The top has a couple of spots that show wear like something rubbed against it while it was folded down, however I wouldn't drive this thing in the rain unless I was caught out in a storm. Sorry to get so long winded. Any input would be great. Thanks, Jeff.

got pics? Europe produced some sweet little roadsters in the 60-70's.

 

check into the fuel injection system though, do you know who it's made by? I know kugelfischer(sp?) injections systems(mostly 70's euro cars)could be troublesome, as many early FI systems were.
