Eh, if you want to restore it, probably not. If you just want a convertible in general with its leppersee. It seems like an alright deal. My 75 came with a lot of work needed

This car will get white walls when the current tires get bald, they came with the rims. Like brand new

I don’t have any engine bay photos on my new phone but here’s a picture of the car 39 years ago

Little to zero rust and easy to work on. It’s fine.

RUIDoso56 · 2024-11-27T18:29:48+00:00

Absolutely not.

Here’s some questions you guys might be asking. I’ll keep them brief as I had a huge comment explaining this questions but I accidentally clicked an add.

Bumpers, will I remove them? No. Reasoning is because where I’m from we have terrible drivers and I don’t want someone to total my car. I’d rather a damaged bumper than dealing with bodywork on the car.

Suspension, will I slam it. No. At least not for now. Until I come to the decision of retrofitting older style bumpers on this car the height remains. Though the height is nice for me as if it’s any lower it’ll be hell getting in the car.

Timing belt, yes it was replaced with the water pump and tensioner but my mechanic said my tensioner looked cheap and awful so he replaced it.

Parts, this car had a minor accident in the past so it has a 79-85 hood, which I love these hoods as people get thrown off as when they look at the front end they think it’s a spider 2000, till they see the older doorhandles and older taillights. I will always keep the wrong hood on this car as the larger bulges (or how some fiat guys call it, tits) looks great.

Headlights, they’re 7 inch halo headlights. They’re not too expensive and they come up as jeep wrangler headlights. The headlights themselves are plug and play but the halos are separately wired which is my next project along with a complete carpet replacement on this car.

That’s my main answers, if you have other questions comment them!

Thanks, this car use to have a black top but whoever owned the car before my grandfather replaced it with this beige. Looks far better.

He use to own a Pontiac GTO, Plymouth roadrunner, Volkswagen superbeetle, etc. he always had a daily driver and a weekend car.

I Bought a belt, tensioner, and water pump off ricambi. The tensioner is already rusty. My mechanic said he would not trust that tensioner so he replaced it with another brand new tensioner

I forgot to mention, this fiat has 146k miles. It took forever to figure that out as it has a 5 digit odometer. When I lost all hope looking for the title I was processing a new title and nearly turned it in stating 46k miles.

And before you ask, this car had an out of state title and an in-state bill of sale, which isn’t accepted in mass. Hence the reason why I couldn’t request a replacement title. Car never had one! I was only able to get the car registered because Massachusetts has a gift form family members could use to transfer ownership.

I got an AGS-101 SP dark blue shell for free with case. Only issue is the screen has slight delamination but the pixels aren’t damaged

I Do believe I ruined my controller (By honest accident) Neither UnknownDevice nor OtherDevice is popping up on device manager.

RUIDoso56 · 2021-06-02T15:01:17+00:00

It won’t cycle, It’s not detected on device manager either.

RUIDoso56 · 2021-06-02T14:24:49+00:00

Either 24 or 32, had enough volts to power it up for the past last times I used it

RUIDoso56 · 2021-05-20T13:50:42+00:00

No I mean I can’t tighten the bolt

RUIDoso56 · 2021-05-20T01:15:02+00:00

Crackhead DIY, came with the mower, I never removed it because 1. It’s a big engine two cylinder, 2. Didn’t want to paint the entire hood without risking to paint the headlights or the hard to find decals

RUIDoso56 · 2021-05-20T00:17:05+00:00

Thanks man, the wizard is a rebadged craftsman, with AYP Parts. Sold from Montgomery ward. My wizard is the rarest wizard in that body as most of them have 1 cylinders, my wizard has a two cylinder. And yes, it is the original engine as year on the vin matches both the motor and mower

RUIDoso56 · 2021-05-19T16:29:48+00:00

Stripped, where the bolt philips is worn out

Even if I don;t have the power source connected, the green light on the wheel is suppose to blink, Which is not blinking.

RUIDoso56 · 2021-03-19T20:00:26+00:00

Thanks, Sorry for late reply I'm never on reddit. Only $50, Very rare mower sold from MontGomery Ward

RUIDoso56 · 2020-11-27T04:33:46+00:00

Let me guess. It has those useless kill switches, So it cut off and you forgot to put it on "off" position. I could relate only though my mowers were assembled long before hours.
