Well my "unreliable" GTV6 left me stranded for the first time. It stalled on me while driving but I was able to get it started again and finish my errands. Unfortunately on the drive home it died again, 3 blocks from home, and of course I coasted to a stop in a bus stop. Luckily my wife was...

Hello All I am brand new to the forum. I have been following for a few discussions for a couple weeks now and decided it would be wise to join and share my experiences here. I bought a '74 Spider in pretty rough shape before Christmas and have been working to bring it back to life since. I...

Hi, I recently purchased what seems to be an '83 Spider. The date inside the door frame says November of '82 but I'm pretty sure this is the '83 model. I have not seen an interior in worse condition, but that is not the point. First I need to get this car running. I have replaced the fuel pumps...

Greetings all, I am the fortunate new owner of a nicely restored '67 Duetto, which arrived by transport today. Yes, it was a sight unseen purchase but an inspector did find the car to be in good running order and I trust that the seller was honest in his declaration that it runs great and...
