Okay... even with our help this poor 850 Spider on the right may be a wee bit too tough to restore. Did you know when FIAT left the US in the 1980's we were given exclusive permission to continue to reproduce and provide FIAT Service Manuals, Wiring Diagrams and other Technical Literature necessary for the proper service and operation of these classic cars?

FIAT 850 FACTORY SHOP MANUAL -The FIAT 850 Factory Shop Manual covers the 850 Spider, Coupe and Sedan. This is a reprint of "the real thing" as provided by the Fiat factory to their dealers and service departments when the cars were being sold new. The Factory Shop Manual has comprehensive repair instructions, hundreds of pictures and illustrations and complete technical specifications. With 356 pages, it has a wealth of information that is available nowhere else! Whether you're simply changing spark plugs or rebuilding your engine, transmission or differential; this is the most comprehensive manual available anywhere. If it's not in here, it's not anywhere! If you had a pile of parts in your garage, this book could tell you how to make an 850 out of them! BONUS: Includes FREE USA Version Technical Data Supplement.

AUTOBOOKS 1964 - 1972 FIAT 850 COUPE, SPECIAL, SPIDER and SPORT WORKSHOP MANUAL - Need a shop manual but don't have the budget for the Factory Shop Manual? This is a great "after-market" manual that covers all the 850's with an 843 or 903cc engine. Separate chapters cover engine, fuel system, ignition, cooling system, clutch, transmission, suspension, steering, brakes, electrical and bodywork. It has hundreds of pictures, drawings and illustrations. This has all the information you need to keep your vintage 850 going strong.

FIAT SPECIAL SERVICE TOOLS - FIAT, like all auto manufacturers, had special service tools to accomplish certain repair or maintenance procedures. This manual is a listing of all the service tools FIAT issued from the 850 models to the 2000 Spider. A picture of each tool is shown along with the FIAT and Kent-Moore part numbers, it's application to what vehicle and it's purpose. This is essential if you are really going to "dig deep" into your FIAT.

FIAT FACTORY 850 COUPE & SPIDER PARTS CATALOG - This Original Fiat Factory Parts Manual has hundreds of drawings and diagrams showing virtually every part that makes up an 850! There is a description of every part along with the original FIAT Factory part numbers. Great if you are trying to track down what part goes where or identify a "mystery part" that you may have sitting in a box. 120 pages

FIAT 850 & 600 MECHANICAL and BODY PARTS CATALOG - Originally printed by the former North American Fiat Parts Distributor, this is self-admittedly a bit short on exploded parts views, but it does have diagrams showing the engine/transmission mounts, engine gaskets, lubrication system, transmission internals, drive shafts, brakes, steering and front & rear suspension. Additionally there are listings for pistons, crankshaft, cylinder head, timing gear, fuel system, carburetor, exhaust, cooling system, clutch, wheel bearings, shocks, heating, windshield wiper, electrical, body panels, weatherstrips, door parts, convertible top, interior parts, bumpers and emblems with the parts listed along with the original FIAT Factory part numbers. 31 pages

WIRING DIAGRAMS FOR FIAT 850 SPIDERS - Ever try to track down an electrical problem without the proper wiring diagrams? Fortunately 850's varied only slightly in electrical layout, so wiring diagrams are somewhat interchangeable over the years. In general, the "early" cars (1967-1969) are all quite similar as are the "late" cars (1970-1973). This also coincided with the change from a generator to an alternator. We are able to offer a complete 850 Wiring Manual covering early and late Spiders, along with the 850 Coupe and the 850 Sedan. These diagrams cover your car with individual circuits, wire color and component locations. You should not be without one of these for your car!

LAMINATED WEBER 30 DICA INSTRUCTION SHEET - Did you know there are almost 80 different parts on the Weber 30 DICA carburetor? Just doing a straight forward carb rebuild on your 850? Here's exactly what you need! Our laminated 30 DICA Instruction Sheet has a complete exploded view of the entire carb on one side and a complete parts list with Weber part numbers on the back. Use it right on your workbench and don't worry about it getting it soiled as dirt and grease will wipe right off!

GUIDE TO TUNING WEBER DCOE & IDA AND STROMBERG CD & SU - This is "real old school"! 40 pages of instructions, adjustments, selecting jet & venturi sizes and more for the DCOE & IDA series of Weber carburetors and the CD & SU series of Stromberg carburetors.

1972 FIAT 850 SPORT SPIDER OWNER'S MANUAL - From 1967 to 1972 the controls, dashboard and operations of the 850 Spider changed very little. In light of this, a 1972 Owner's Manual can effectively be used for all 1967 to 1972 850 Spiders. Now you can know what switches control what, what fuses are in what place and much more. Fiat always packed their Owner's Manual with basic maintenance info, technical specifications and much more. Fiat Owner's Manuals can almost be used as a mini-shop manual for these cars. 48 fully illustrated pages with a wealth of information available no where else!

850 SPIDER CONVERTIBLE TOP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS - Way back when, FIAT issued installation instructions for removing the old top and installing a new one. Though just a single page, this does document the procedure. If you are thinking of installing your own top these instructions are essential.

A BLAST FROM THE PAST...
Back in the 1980's and early 1990's there was a quirky character named Greg Schmidt who sold Fiat 850, 750 and 600 parts (and for the cars based on those, Abarth, Lombardi, Moretti, OTAS, etc.) out of his home in San Diego. Greg had this "mystery" connection for obtaining Abarth, Campagnolo and Weber parts, Autobianchi engines and other high performance Italian "goodies" for years and than one day he just literally he dropped of the face of the earth.
Occasionally Greg would issue a publication with all the parts or the procedures for "hopping up" your 600, 750 or 850 Fiat. Sometimes parts are handwritten, sometimes parts are typed, and sometimes he rambles on a little bit, but the amount of information and the number of drawings is staggering. Guaranteed there's stuff in here that you never even thought about! Two of these publications are below.

FIAT & ABARTH TRICKS - 111 pages packed with information and drawings. Chapters cover engine/trans removal and replacement, complete maintenance and repair, car conversion and improvements, body & trim parts and replica cars, competition preparation, Fiat 124 engine conversions, clutch linkage upgrades, Abarth and stock Fiat engine specifications, pages of exploded views with parts descriptions and part numbers and an appendix with the differences on 850's from year to year. Read thru this and you'll know way, way more about your Fiat.

850/600 ABARTH PARTS CATALOG - 68 pages crammed with all the goodies that Greg had to offer. There are dozens of parts listed on each page and usually a dozen of drawings too. Issued in September, 1994 this is probably, if not definitely, the last parts catalog printed.

ABARTH EXHAUST CATALOG - This was published in 1967 by the then Abarth exhaust importer. This 20 page catalog lists the Abarth exhausts available along with other sports car "goodies" that Fisher Products offered at the time. A very cool look back in time over 40 years ago!

OWN A PIECE OF HISTORY! - After FIAT ceased selling cars in the US in 1982 they stayed several years to provide replacement parts here in the US. In 1990 they sold off the parts business to Import Parts America (IPA) out of Fremont, CA and left the US behind.

IPA made a nice attempt at doing some marketing and one of the things they did was to provide a "community" newsletter. In exchange for your address, year and model of car they would send you a quarterly newsletter. This newsletter was a great idea, but after three issues or so it folded.

What we have here is the original, initial Volume 1, Issue 1 FIAT BRAVO NEWSLETTER from the Fall of 1990. This is NOT a copy or reprint but the actual newsletter itself printed almost 20 years ago.

This is an incredible look at the FIAT scene two decades ago and has articles on FIAT's history since 1899, "Affordable Classic Cars", maintaining your convertible top, adjusting headlamps. paint maintenance, a great technical Q & A, and pictures & descriptions of various owner's cars: Scorpions, 124's, 850's and more.

This is the original, oversized 8 page Newsletter Volume 1, Issue 1, dated Fall of 1990. Quantities are limited so order it now.

OWN A PIECE OF HISTORY! (part 2) - Even after Fiat stopped selling cars in 1982, they continued selling parts here in the US and Canada. Every couple of months they issued "Dealer Price Lists" to the former dealers and now coming on line "Parts Distributors". As parts would come and go, naturally the size of the book would change but most issues are about 120 pages and list each and every part with factory part number, a description, dealer price and retail price. These books were not supposed to fall into the consumer's hands; the wealth of information contained within is tremendous!.

These are ORIGINAL FIAT/LANCIA price books, not copies or reprints so quantities are of course limited.
