Hey Fiat Enthusiasts,
My name is Ollie and I'm currently a high school senior at Lick-Wilmerding. I just bought a orange 76' from a neighbor and am in the process of restoring it. It's got 60k miles on it, a rotten interior, and some rusty spots but I hope to get it back in shape before I convert it to an EV after college.

Welcome Ollie, and good luck with the restoration. I've heard of electric conversions for the Fiat spider, but I've never actually seen one in person. There are actually kits for this with everything you need, although they are not cheap. It would be a cool project, though!
