Just bought my first Fiat Spider, a nice 1977 with an Alfa Romeo 6 cylander engine, only
problem have to find someone who knows side draft carburators, running kind of rich. Needs
some cosmetics, center console type stuff. Looking for reliable and reasonable source of parts.
try to send pic, see if it works
i believe you got that pic up just fine. let's see some more-especially under the hood. looks as if it has pre-74 bumpers. :|there will be others along presently w/answers to choices of parts suppliers.
taking it to the mechanic tomorrow morning, car nor yet registered, have to find
out what it needs beforehand. When I return I'll try and get some good motor and interior
pics. I think I found a gem. Straight body and all the lines are straight and even.
Appreciate any suggestions
Thanks
After that came Ebay, Rock Auto, Vick's Auto, PartsGeek, and local vendors

I use SPIDERPOINT in germany excelent service and they speak very good english you can download catalogue and pricelist, also order online from http://www.spider-point.com. bought many parts from them no complaints so far
Good news from the mechanic today, car is ready for inspection sticker. No major concerns
nothing has to be done. I guess I got really lucky. Now I can get it registered and start
to enjoy. I included a couple of pics of the engine compartment, not much room with the
Alfa engine.
