1980 Fiat Spider Pinninfarina 2000 - NOW RUNNING!! - Video in Listing - UPDATED!
1980 Fiat spider pinninfarina 2000 2000 Description
Ive had this car for many years, it was a great runner when we bought it, put very few miles on it. one day it died and Nobody could figure out how to work on it, ive always had a problem finding a good mechanic and couldnt afford to start throwing parts at it back then and the internet wasnt what it is today. I did do the fuel pump one day back then and got it running finally, backed it out of the garage and it died again. And its been garage kept at my uncles ever since until recently when he brought it here to Braham.
yes, as this is listed i continue to try and do whatever things i can to get it running. and the price does go up obviously which is fair, a running car is worth more than a dead one. add me to your favorites to keep updated as i can only do 7 day listings.
UPDATE: the fuel pump works, the little air flap in the air box was sticking closed, it needs to open to turn the pump on, it is working now. its getting spark, its turning over im at the point where it seems to have a weak injector pulse, still trying to figure it out but i have very few tools. 2 cylinders were wet and 2 were dry as well. Must be trailered away,
UPDATE 6-7-16: Car now runs !! pull started it yesterday and popped the clutch and she starts right up, however, it wouldnt stay running without feathering the gas and it ran a little rough. Still doesnt start on its own even though it seems to turn over ok. still thinking injectors and i wanna do fuel filter. the magnetic pickup had worn wires too so ill be replacing that.
UPDATE 7-20-16: Car now starts on its own! Magnetic pickup sensor was bad in distributor. stays running as well now, still a little rough running, i think the injectors will need to be cleaned or replaced next
Body looks pretty decent, there are some dings and dents but for a 36 yr old car she's pretty nice. All the glass is good
I took a 1080p walkaround video of it trying to point out the dings and dents i could see, inside, outside, motor, etc. It should be able to answer any cosmetic questions. change your quality settings to 1080 it makes a huge difference, the pictures make it look worse than it is, its just dirty and i was in a hurry, ill add updated photos after i get it cleaned up.
Canvas top looks to be in good condition.
Interior is fair, dash looks good, drivers seat has some ripping, again this is all in the video.
