Hey Fiat World
Hey Fiat World
We i never thought i would own a fiat, but as luck has it i got one last thursday. Its a 70' fiat 850 sport spider. I'm really happy to have it now and i know i have alot of work ahead of me. All i need now it to fig out all the wiring, get all the lights to work, and weather stripping all around. I hope i dont bother anyone with all my questions, this is a big step up from the hondas i'm use to.

Welcome. We don't have lots of 850s here but some of us do have them and can give assistance as well as links to other sites.
We love pictures so please post up a few of the car and you if you wish.
I would strongly suggest picking up a manual or two. The Haynes manual is plentiful, the Brooklands or Autopress are good and the best is the factory 850 manual which covers all models. They can be had new from the various vendors. The 850 is a simple car but it is always easier to have a good reference and specs while doing a job.
We look forward to hearing more about your car and your experiences. Welcome to the joys and tribulations of owning an older car and to owning a Fiat!

You have made a giant step from Hondas to a 41 year old Fiat. Like all of us here, I'm sure you'll enjoy the trip! Please post pics when you have a chance and welcome!
