1971 Fiat Sport 850 Spider
Very low VIN xxx006 Everyone knows Italian car values are on the rise..and this one is no exception. It has been in Az most of its life. It got some rust on the floors like most of these cars but the rockers and rest of the car look unscathed. Many of these cars simply rotted out and getting much harder to find in this solid condition....survivor basically. IF You have less then 10 feedbacks, we will email you to make sure its legit we email you to check your sincerity on buying the car and dont get a reply within 24 hours.. You will be cancelled and blocked too from bidding. We suggest viewing our auction on normal large monitors and or tablet to get the most out of our large easy to view pics. Id prefer NO PAYPAL to be honest, or maybe as a deposit only. Email me first before you bid if thats your only option. We bank with BofA which is easy for most buyers.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION: this little gem was taken off the road a few yrs ago to start getting a mild resto. Most of the mechanical was done, some stuff to the motor, suspension and brakes. As you can tell it was partially disassembled. Parts where bagged and put in a box. Some of the body work was done and sanding to the body of the original Crome Yellow paint. Then the owner for financial reasons couldnt finish it. It starts right up and runs well. No smoke or weird noises. Drives great down the road too. Its not finished, but alot has been done so far and with some effort and a vision, it could be finished by the right person. Mileage shows about 50k and it could be original, not sure. Check out the pics and more info below...thanks
DONT BID UNLESS YOU HAVE THE FUNDS IN HAND, apparently some people who use ebay arent smart enough to understand the rules. So if you have under 10 feedbacks, Ill be emailing you if you bid to make sure you are legit, if we do please reply or we will cancel your bid. Up for Auction: LOW FAIR RESERVE !!! These cars are getting harder to find esp in this condition that are still affordable to most buyers.
DRIVETRAIN: very complete and original under the bonnet. Motor could be matching #s, 903cc,but not exactly sure where to check on these. Check out the 100+ pics in we have below and if you have questions lmk. 5 spd manual trans matted to the 4 cyl engine runs well. Clutch and brakes feel great. Even has a new set of tires. K&N filter in there as well. An e-fuel pump is in place of the factory mechanical one, and is temp wired in to run and drive. Obviously the car needs finishing in a number of areas.
INTERIOR: take a look, all the original carpets come with the car (were removed for now.) Comes with some of the original weatherstipping etc, but prob want to replace it since its off for paint. Seats okay, but could use new vinyl eventually. Center console is cool. Side glass is there. Ft windshield is missing, think we still have the gasket. Box of misc interior parts come with the car. See pics below. Floors have had some pan work done and looks like Por15 applied in areas to prevent corrosion in the future. EXTERIOR:the body pretty straight for its age, the car had some body work in the front, see pics. We are showing pics of it mostly stipped and with some parts bolted back in so you can see how things are lining up with some of the metal body work done. Crome Yellow was the original color #273 and would look great back to that color. Best I can tell all the parts for the outside come with the car in the extra boxes of parts EXCEPT no Ft or Rr bumpers. Finish the paint up and re-assemble and enjoy a really cool car.
SUSPENSION:the suspension looks normal and very original but there are ALOT of new parts under there so my guess all the $ stuff has been done. Including the brakes. The last owner said he was doing all the major mechanical work first to the drive train and suspension first, leaving the paint and interior for last. Thats about where we sit. It does feels great when driving down the road. No weird noises or signs of anything worn out. Tires are almost new. Handles like a true sports car. Check out ALL the pics below ----->
it may take a full minute for them all to load ifyou have a slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra scroll bar on the right side. Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate. more infoAFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.
There you have it, probably The BEST represented Italian cars on Ebay. And if you are an overseas bidder, great ! Shows you all the good as well as any not so good. We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars. People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end. Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days speaks volumes. If you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what sort of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating. People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers.
Email us with ANY questions before you bid please
Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself. We show you as much feasibly possible via pics. Dont let auctions withlittle to no pics try to fool you.
