sir, i've ran across one of these cars.its a convertible as yours is, the starter is out as the owners says, and he wants $2500 for it. is this a good price for this car? I'm not sure of the value of this car and I don't know of what the potential value could be. please advise on this if you don't mind. its a 1979 by the way
@MrMth01 Before you buy it, see if a local mechanic will come look at it first, and give you an estimate for the work it needs. Then deduct the cost of work from the price of the car. Lets say the mechanic tells you that the new starter will cost 500 dollars. Offer to buy the fiat for 2000, 500 less because of costs.

I have got a very good hint for you to keeping the nice old Sports Engine in good shape with todays ultra dry eco fuels: Use 1:100 API TC two stroke oil / fuel mix as regular driving fuel, that keeps the old fuel-system gaskets, rubber parts, alloy parts etc... and cast iron metal surfaces of those vintage engines in excellent shape...and it also lubricates the valves and upper piston regions. Most Porsche vintage owners in Germany do so :) Also keeps carbs and Fi injectors clean as new!
Dont forget to put 1:100 two stroke Oil API TC into the tank for each fill, because thats good for the carbs and the pistons..modern fuel does not take care of the old engine materials!
Do the guy in the back and passenger both have sufficient leg room to sit comfortably?

Respond to this video... And yes 2500 is a good price as long as the car is in relatively good shape

It would seem the steering box is loose. Could be tightened up a bit.
