Hi. I'm the original owner of a 1974 red spider (that's 35 years of ownership). It has been in storage for over 10 years and I have put it back on the road this summer. It's been a lot of fun. I wish you all a pleasant journey. Jimmy G

Welcome, glad you found the site! I bought my first Spider just over two years ago, but I bought another a year ago 'cause I heard it doubles your seniority! If it wasn't for sites like this, I'd have given up on the orphen Fiat long ago, but if you look hard enough, (or ask) you can fine the answer to almost anything!

Wow an original 74 owner. Congrats on getting it back on the road. One little thing though... we need photos. Love to see your car. Drive it in summers only? Winters back east are a bit hard on these cars. I have a 72 that spent a few years in Ontario somewhere,gotta change the shock towers and floors.
Good luck hope you had many happy drives this summer.

Welcome to the group. I bought my car in 1978 when I lived in Beaconsfield - love the city, but had to move. We look forward to the pictures.

hello, Jimmy. welcome here.

the '74 is a grand car, great styling. Wish i could have saved the '74 parts car i had for a while. Good to hear that you are keeping yours in motion.
