Original gear knob is included. Period correct Coco mats. 2 Car covers included. Original Fiat jack, lug wrench & original Fiat Tool kit also included. Trunk in front has new OEM rubber mat. Driver's side door glass has a new window wind up regulator. Please review pictures and please request more information and more pictures on serious inquiries. Anyone can find a Ferrari in any model or a Fiat 124 or other model anytime. But never a Fiat 850 Spider that was designed by Giugiaro of Bertone studios. At least not in this condition. This is one under appreciated, grossly under valued Italian exotic sports car that is rare to impossible to come across in this condition and destined to appreciate in value. The soft top is serviceable and can benefit with an upgrade. This and the gauges have some cloudiness are the pending issues slated for upgrading. Replacement, clear face model correct gauges have already been purchased and accompany the sale. The car is being offered for sale "as is" from a private collection but will not be relisted once this listing expires. Shipping cost and Paypal fees for Buyer's account. A vehicle Inspection and test drive or PPI (pre purchase inspection), is certainly encouraged. The car runs well and engine pulls strong. Car has a very smooth, comfortable ride and is a sheer joy to drive with the soft top down. Responsive manual steering with good "road feel and feedback". As cute as a button and garners immense positive admiration from many. Once again the condition of the car speaks for itself in the pictures and more so in person. Will consider selling to international interested parties and will assist to ship. Happy bidding.
