I hope this works.

$1200 ? You got ripped off, there's no radio!!!!
Looks pretty good, real clean. How's it run?
Did the Keystone come with it?

What's a s[oder? Is $1200 a good price for one?
Never mind, I just looked at my keyboard and had an "ahaa" moment. You got a $1200 Spider!
Looks like it's going to be less work than the other to "pretty" it up.
Way to go Katsi.
Are you resizing your pictures down to about 1/2 size? They look like they're running off the right hand side of the frame.

I'll give you $5 for the set of wheels and caps

[katsi]

Oh come on now, $5 bones for the wheel caps. I agree that I don't like the rims but they were drooled over today.

How's it run? Really good as long as you don't want to idle at a stop light or go really fast. She really enjoys stalling at stop lights and likes to sputter \ lurch (shake martinie's) at high RPM.

Sorry about the Typo. Just kinda happens some times.

Anyway, I just pounded out the dent in the right front fender, Has a slight "U" still but only in the right light. I think a little bondo will ease the tension on the eyes.

Wife likes it though so that's good. Said she wants me to paint it red - (that's like corporate sponcering in my book)

Anyway, worked on the top boot tonight and found both end caps under the seats. One looks original and the other says "International Parts Supply" - I kinda thought that was funny.

I really need to snap a shot of the top. Really nice.

Oh, I did install a CD player in it tonight and listened to some tunes. Just put those little flat plugs in the wires and plugged them into the radio the wiring for the radio and everything worked out well. Tight fit though. I do have one question but, I will post in the "electrical" section of this site.

Oh yeah, The Keystone I bought (come on, I just purchased and old car needing lots of $ to make - old and running nicely)! The guy I purchased it from through in a few Miller Lights B4 I took off for home and some jumper cables just in case! Nice guy. He was a Nasa Scientist - No S&^T! NASA - just came back from Florida. Fact - I purchased it about 10 blocks from NASA. Houston, we have a problem - I actially said that when I was driving through downtown Houston on the 45 when it started shaking martini's.

Good times, Good times!!

Looks like some replaced the electronic distributor with a points type. Looks like a 1608/1800 cap.
Nice wheels! Those are so light.

[katsi]

It is the original ignition but you are right, they are points.

[mbouse]

so, katsi... you buy ANOTHER spider? har har har...

you are officially a member of the insane asylum.
