Wiring Harness
I'd like to start replacing some sections of wiring and i can't seem to locate anything specific for a my 75 fiat spider. Any recommendations on where to look for new wiring?

Re: Wiring Harness
New or NOS harnesses are not available for our cars, although moderator Mark has been looking into this. Virtually all Spiders have some DIY wiring mods; mine had wire nuts, speaker wire, zip cord and more!
Rewiring to a modern style harness is a lot of work, and there's no "rolling restoration" process. The path often taken is to methodically refurbish your existing harness by cleaning and repairing individual circuits, with special attention to grounds. You can Search this forum for ideas on more drastic measures, if you're so inclined.
