$11,000 1967 Fiat 850 Spider Project Car
$11,000 1967 Fiat 850 Spider Project Car-June 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:10:19

For today's you'll need to start dressing right, because we've got an almost-there, '67 for 11 grand, and they don't afford you much left-side legroom.

Last time, 67% of you arm chair Andrettis thought the was Nice Price worthy. Today, we've got a petite, topless-loving italian to test your automotive pricing BS meters. It's a '67 Fiat 850 Spider with a Buy-It-Now price of 11,000. That's dollars, not lira.

Do you like the look of vintage Can-Am cars? Got 40 grand to drop so you can fulfill your track…

That's a lot of chianti and pizza for a Fiat with an engine smaller than most Harleys. But these are cars that engender a lot of love from their owners, and the current title holder does seem to have a soft spot in his head heart for the cars. That's not to say he's not taking a hardline on the price. The seller threatens to part it out if he doesn't get his price - selling it off piece by piece - much as a mobster might do seeking ransom for a captured adversary.

The description of this red, rear-engine roadster claims many a new part, and not only a bored 965cc engine, but twin solex 40mm side draughts. That may seem like a lot of carburetor for such a little engine, but those velocity stacks sure look nice.

Now, you should note that this 850 is not a runner- it is a Fiat after all. The seller says it's 85% done, and has 99% of the parts necessary for completion, including $8,000 in NOS parts on or about the car. So keep that in mind as you judge it.

So what will it be with this espresso-sized two seater? Is $11,000 a nice price for this Italian-red roadster, or is the seller 85% of the way to crack pipe, with 99% chance he's not going to get that price for it?

You decide!

Stop Overpaying for Lightly Used Cars
Stop Overpaying for Lightly Used Cars
I have a news flash for some of you: Dealers love the people that insist that used cars are always a better buy than new. That might be the case most of the time, but not always, and, in fact, some buyers looking for something that’s only a few years...

At $24,987, Could This 2014 Cadillac ELR Rock You Down To Electric Avenue?
If you like the Chevy Volt but really need fewer doors and more swank, then the car for you could be something like today’s Cadillac ELR. That is, if its price doesn’t prove to be too shocking. I don’t know why the seller of yesterday’s didn’t dub the rare colored...

The Most Expensive Car Ever Sold at Auction Is This 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO For $48.4 Million
It’s been described as “the world’s most important, desirable, and legendary motor car.” Of course, that was by the people selling it, but the hyperbole must have worked somehow, because this became the most expensive car ever sold at auction this weekend at an RM Sotheby’s sale during Monterey Car...

At $29,999, Will This 1996 Dodge Viper RT/10 Have You Shouting, Snakes Alive?
The seller of today’s Viper claims its factory color is one of a kind. Let’s see if its price might make it kind of a deal. Boise is the capital of Idaho, and the state’s most populous city. It sits in the southwestern region of the state in a swath...

I Come From France! What Car Should I Buy?
Thomas just moved from France to the Detroit suburbs. He needs to get a cheap car quick but it can’t just be any car, it needs to be an American car, a freedom car! Ideally, he is looking for a V8 but also needs somewhat decent gas mileage. What car...
