Hello, I bought a 79 spider pinanfarina 2000 last week and would like to restore it but right now it is just a sunny day, top down ride that I have grown to love in the few days that I have had it. It is a little rough and it runs and drives pretty well. I am looking for someone in the area of Indy or central Indiana that I can be a sounding board to and can maybe give me some pointers on restoring and maintaining.
I am also wondering if there is a club in central Indiana or in Chicago, Louisville or Cincy areas. Are there any Fiat shows or get togethers or swap meets at any of these get togethers?
I love this car and I hope I have many years of fun with it.
I will be asking a lot of questions.
Thanks from Indy.
Spider in Indy

You should check out http://www.flu.org (FLU - Fiat-Lancia Unlimited). FIAT Freak Out (FFO) is in Detroit this year (in about 5 weeks - details at FLU.org). I think the FLU.org chapter section shows a central indiana FLU chapter. There is a Detroit FLU chapter and a few of us in West Michigan are planning on starting a chapter real soon.
Also go to http://www.frappr.com/fiatlanciaunlimited and http://www.frappr.com/mirafiori to see the locations of other Fiat owners.
Also watch for user racydave on this forum. He is in the indy area.
