I own a 1981 Spider 2000, purchased about a year ago. Since then I have replaced timing belt, replaced spark plugs and wires, renewed some fluids (coolant, gear box oil), replaced alternator and some other various bits and pieces. Though I drive it some, the car needs additional work. I am always open to learning about this fun car. I owned a '76 model in the late 70's and early 80's. Sold it (with regrets) to make room for babies. I am always open to meeting/learning from other Spider owners in Alabama (or reasonably nearby). Ciao. Steve
