1979 Fiat Spider 2000 5-Speed

The well-preserved 1979 Fiat Spider 2000 is a vintage convertible hailing from Sebastopol, California. Manufactured in the heart of the 1970s, this timeless Italian roadster boasts a distinctive tan vinyl upholstery against a warm beige exterior. Powered by its original 2.0-liter engine coupled with a smooth-shifting 5-speed manual transmission, it's ready for spirited drives along the winding coastal roads of Northern California. Despite its non-running state upon acquisition in 2022, the current owner has since invested considerable time and effort in restoring it back to life, replacing several worn-out parts including the cylinder head, radiator, brakes, and seals. Featured on Bring a Trailer, this classic Fiat Spider stands as a true icon of Italian automotive engineering and design, combining charming retro aesthetics with lively performance, perfect for enthusiasts seeking an authentic driving experience from a bygone era.
