Description of 1976 Fiat Other

I have acquired a new German project car that has become a big economic challenge ( i. e. money pit ). so it's time for the little Italian to go. This Fiat roadster is in outstanding mechanical condition as evidenced by two trouble-free round trips from Nebraska to the West coast during my ownership. It is a perfect car for someone who wants a strong driver in average but very presentable cosmetic condition. It is easy to work on and includes many spares and special tools accumulated over the years. I have owned the car for about 6 years and driven it 14k miles or so. Over that time period a lot of mechanical work and improvements have been made. Most recently (less than 500 miles and 18 months) New Iridium spark plugs (Pictured are the old ones in just-as-removed condition after about 3000 miles) New Yokohama S-drive tires with Monza alloy wheels New Vick Autosports Prima front disc brakes With stainless steel flexes and drilled and slotted performance rotors. During the previous five years All parts new OEM quality. aftermarket. or rebuilt as noted: Engine and drive train: Vick Autosports rebuilt transmission Rebuilt cylinder head including new stainless steel valves with stem seals and hardened seats OEM Cam belt idler bearing OEM steel camshaft drive sprockets. OEM Crankshaft mounted cam drive gear. Cam belt has approximately 3000 miles on it All engine seals including front and rear main seals Aftermarket water pump and hoses Crane XP3000 Fireball electronic ignition with high output coil Genuine Weber 32/28 two-barrel DFEV carburetor Turbine-style electric fuel pump Light weight geared starter 95 amp alternator Clutch. pilot bearing. throw out bearing. pressure plate including flywheel machining Complete aftermarket exhaust system including headers. all exhaust piping. center and rear muffler New OEM Lada 3. 90 ratio differential pumpkin. OEM driveshaft flex (guibo) and new u-joints. Driveshaft straightened and dynamically balanced OEM front and rear wheel bearings and seals Brakes. Suspension and steering: Rebuilt rear calipers with new aftermarket pads. rotors. flexes New front suspension Aftermarket replacement upper and lower A-arms. all joints. performance shocks. springs. and sway bar bushings. New OEM steering box. dler arm. and tie rods New rear suspension including performance shocks. springs. aftermarket Panhard rod. and trailing arms Miscellaneous repair and refurbishment: New custom main fuse box with blade-type fuses Headlight auxiliary relays Main radiator and heater heat exchanger boiled clean and painted Fuel tank boiled clean and lined Hood hinge reinforced and gas struts installed Gas struts for trunk lid Trunk-mounted main electrical cut off Fuel pump inertia safety switch Wideband Air Fuel Ratio Meter Used to select jets for Weber carb tuning. Momo steering wheel with extender Honda squirrel-cage heater blower Damaged center console was removed and a custom heater/defroster box was installed using a Honda Civic blower. Not pretty. but vast performance improvement over the anemic stock heater fan. Tow bar assembly The original plan was to tow it behind an RV but the gas price situation at the time nixed that idea. The tow crosspiece bolts to the chassis in place of the bumper and the solid towbar attaches to that with hinge pins. Car with this transmission design should not be flat towed more than 50 miles without disconnecting driveshaft.

Over the years I tried various combinations of tuners. amps. and subwoofers. but nothing sounded good with the top down. So I converted the subwoofer enclosure into a locking storage area behind the seats. It does not have a driver or passenger side sun visor. I use a removable plexiglas shield/wind deflector on the driver's side. Top cover patch Faded chalky paint and filler on fender and trunk Tatty switchgear But it all works well! That stylish toggle switch is the hi/low blower control. Terms and Conditions: Vehicle is sold As-Is. Where-Is. Buyer must pick up the car or arrange for commercial shipment.
