How exciting! Surely ahead of it's time! Can you hear the sarcasm? In any event, the Spider did in fact have fiber optics when it came out. I discovered this amazing fact today when I found a stray black plastic tube. I saw that there were three other identical tubes running to my heater console. Sure enough they were all the lighting elements for my heating system (which may or may not work). Each of these fiber optic cables is held on by a little white clamp. My heart skipped a beat. Did I have this clamp? Could I find it? I went to my uncle's pile of Fiat bits and after a while of rummaging, found the piece I needed. With a steady hand and some forceps I was able to reattach the light. Let there be light!!

Now that the paint has cured, my custom fuel pump bracket is ready for installation. Now I just need to run the pump under a brass wire wheel to clean it up and install it. After that I will hook up some fuel lines and install the fuel filter. Most of the bolts down here are 6mm, so I think I will pick up a few extras at the hardware store later. |
