My daughter and I just picked up a 81 Spider. Original Denver car, no rust or top/carpet! She wanted to learn to drive stick and fix up a car. The car runs great and mostly needs cosmetic at this point. Besides fluids/brakes/bearings do we just drive it till it breaks?
Thanks
Rob

Re: Hey from Colorado
Welcome aboard. My advice would be that unless you know when the timing belt was last changed to change the timing belt. They are supposed to be changed every 30,000 miles and previous owners frequently neglect that maintenance.

Hey Rob
Welcome to the Fiat club. I'm also here in Colorado and have been fixing up my 77 for a while now. It is slowly getting there and if you have questions, don't hesitate to ask. See you out there driving around
