About Roadster Salon

Since 1999, Roadster Salon has been the Premier restorer of Fiat / Pininfarina/ Alfa spiders in the US. Typically, our cars are built to order from our selection of donor inventory. Each car is lovingly restored to a high standard, faithful to the original example. Customers may select options to tailor their car to specific tastes.

Further details about Roadster Salon Classic convertible recreations can be reviewed on our web site. The build process generally takes up to three months, and there is currently a waiting list. Consequently, nearly all our cars are built to order, and only a scant few are available for sale each year to the general public that were not pre-ordered.

To our knowledge, Roadster Salon currently maintains the largest selection of Fiat and Pininfarina chassis' ready for restoration in North America (and possibly the World). Please contact us about your interest in a project more custom tailored to your specific needs.

Overview

Our full cosmetic and mechanical restoration process is currently being finalized, and the end result will be simply stunning. Detailed information about what this process entails can be found on our web site.

This car includes the upgraded Ferrari leather interior, which includes seats, dash, door panel and other surfaces covered in high-end, supple, hand stitched leather. The material is sourced from the same vendor that supplies leather to Ferrari and Bentley. In keeping with the original theme, vintage premium German loop carpets are retained.

Our in house design team chose the premium burgundy to complement the exquisite silver exterior. This is a tremendous upgrade from the original tan, which frankly found little favor among our designers. This combination makes for one of the most elegant and traditional complementary colors this side of Fiorano.

Cosmetic Impressions

Exterior paint work is excellent, finished to a higher-end standard than our typical base model. Absolutely first rate, with no imperfections. Undercarriage is also what you would expect from one of our finished Basso models. Clean and tidy. Very nice overall.

We can't say enough about our leather interior upgrades. Hand crafted by true artisans, these interiors have no equal. All key surfaces are covered by hand with premum leather. Each component is cut from matching hydes. No color match issues. Workmanship in same class as Ferrari-Maserati. Bellissimo.

Mechanical and Driving Impressions

It is a joy to drive a fully sorted classic Italian convertible. Panel fitment is better than when the car came out of the factory. Engine, transmission and suspension are crisp and tight. Factory air conditoning system is included, and blows cold.

While all Roadster Salon cars are held to a rigid mechanical standard. Please see our itemized list of all services included in the Basso package.

Our goal is not to build a $100K trailer queen, but rather a car that can be casually enjoyed when ever the passion arises. In that regard, our stirring recreations exceed all reasonable expectations. 10/10.

Pricing

Roadster Salon carefully hand crafts about 30 cars per year, detailed to the specifications of each customer. There recently has been a huge upswing in the classic car market for vintage spiders.

However, It is important to note that restored automobiles in general should be built for the love and enjoyment of their owners. They are not hugely profitable endeavors--for the builder or reseller. To value a Roadster Salon Spider along side a used Alfa--or measure by a "car guide" is to miss the point of the car entirely.

Considering the quality, workmanship, and warranty, Roadster Salon Spiders are one of the great values in the market today.

What is a Spider Basso?

Firstly, our Spider restorations typically fall into two categories. Basso, and Avanzato (basic and advanced) Roadster Salon carefully selects candidates for restoration that are already in good overall condition, and meet our critical standards. Cars that require complete top to bottom rehabilitation are set aside for parts use only. Spider Basso models are re-painted in their original color. A color change is optonal at an addtional $2500.

All Roadster Salon cars are fully disassembled before paint. Interiors are refurbished, including new upholstery, carpets, door panels and console. A new convertible top is professionally installed.

Please see our web site for a complete list of mechanical items addressed in Basso models. Wear items like tires, brakes, and shocks are always replaced. Other key items inspected and repaired/replaced are fuel system, cooling system, suspension, transmission, timing belt, and engine gaskets and seals. Engine compartments are clean tidy, but not detailed to Avanzato standards. The Avanzato model base price is $39,900-$49,900. All base models can be upgraded at the descretion of the buyer.
