Thanks, I've tried to keep it as stock as possible and if any changes were made, tried to keep it at least period correct, like the wheels.
Upgrades:
-Electronic ignition from a later model Spider -Higher voltage alternator -Billet high torque starter motor. -Weber 34 ADF -Headers and exhaust -Momo steering wheel -IAP after market springs.
Also replaced the stock fan with a modern electric one. That was just for weight savings though since the stock fan and assembly is so heavy.
Luckily this model shares the same mechanicals and some interior parts as the 124 Spider which was in production a lot longer, and they sold a lot of in the U.S., so those parts are easier to find. The hard parts to find are things like some interior parts like the dash, trim and body panels. I do have a new carpet kit and headliner that i haven't put in yet though.
