Fiat Dino Forum (FDF)

wow... this is impressive... are you collecting all those data or do you have acces to some database?

I am actually missing the full history of my dino spider VIN 986... in case you are having any information... please let me know. I know, it was registered in California in the zero-years... but no clue waht has happened before.

Impressive

I am in Santander, Spain

Car is a beauty and very close to original state (inc radio!)

But having some serious problems with cylinder 3 ;-( Hopefully fixed soon.

Hi, Hans-Kristian,

thanks for your information... regarding the colors... you are right. Those were the colors the car was wearing during it's existence.

Just to update data around my ownership...

The car was restored by Aumüller in 2015, including the interior and the soft-top. attached you can see 2 pictures about the underlying colors... plus... seeing that it was having a very good substance.




Currently (this year) the engine, gear box and suspension is fully overhauled by officina pistone.

The new information is the Spanish owner... thanks a lot for this insight.

Best Regards

Argonaut
