The Fiat 124 Sport Spider, designed by Tom Tjaarda at Pininfarina, debuted at the 1966 Turin Motor Show, quickly becoming an icon of affordable Italian open-top motoring. Developed from the Fiat 124 sedan platform, it featured a sophisticated twin-cam engine designed by ex-Ferrari engineer Aurelio Lampredi, a unit that would power various Fiats and Lancias for decades. Over its production run, which extended for nearly two decades, the 124 Spider evolved through several series, continually refining its balance of charming aesthetics, spirited performance, and accessible price point. The 1983 model year represents one of the final iterations of the original design, having transitioned to being marketed as a Pininfarina Spider Azzura in its last years in North America, a testament to its enduring design and popularity. This 1983 Fiat 124 Spider stands as a remarkable example of the breed, presenting in a condition that suggests a life of careful stewardship. With just 52,438 original miles on its 2.0L naturally aspirated inline-four engine, mated to a manual transmission, it promises an engaging and authentic driving experience. The body and paint are described as fantastic, free of the rust that often plagued these Italian roadsters, while the interior is noted as clean, gorgeous, and showing minimal wear. For the enthusiast seeking a well-preserved piece of Italian automotive history, this 124 Spider offers a rare opportunity to acquire a true classic.
