Re: Fiat Dino Spider 2000

Hi Agnatus,
Are you looking for the chrome surrounds, or are you in need of the sheet metal behind it that really holds the bulbs,etc.?

Re: Fiat Dino Spider 2000

Hi Agnatus, I've been scrounging around for the part I think you're looking for, but the news is not good. There appears to be one at fiat.inc here in the US @$784! I have tried to stay away from these guys due to costs, but they seem to have at least one. It also appears a place called Dinopoint th...

Hi Ben, Kudos to hanging in there in the path of getting your car right..it'll be worth it! If by chance you get near the end of the line and it still shakes, consider getting your driveshaft balanced. I had fits with the shakes in the front end,heck,the whole car! It's all good now, but I hope you ...

Re: Amsoil 5/30 Synchromesh

Hi Ribolla, That Amsoil really seems to smooth out my Getrag! I'll have to confess that I'm very suggestible at times, but...It really seems a change for the good! No downside that I've yet detected. I will keep using the Amsoil, and keep you posted. The 1-2 upshift is really nice, and 5th gear seem...

Re: Engine rebuild

Hello Amir and Michael, You all may want to consider Carobu Engineering,(www.carobu.com). They have more than one site, but I'm lucky enough to live in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and 30 miles away from one of their sites. They rebuilt my Dino's 2.4 engine for me, and managed to coax 220 hp out of it, ...

Re:1968 Fiat Dino spider

Now a 1968 2.0 spider has popped up out of Belgium!
Hard to believe two of our cars have come out more or less at the same time.
here is the listing for the spider:

2400 Dino Coupe on BAT

Hello all,
I happened to be looking at Bring a Trailer, and saw an attractive Fiat Dino 2400 Coupe come up at auction! You might want to take a look. As always, I'm cheering on any Fiat Dino, of course!

Re: Transmission Oil for Fiat Dino 2400 / ZF S5-18

Hello all, Thanks, Ribolla for the tip on Getrag tranny oil. I've got a couple of quarts of Amsoil 5/30 MTF and I'm going to give it a try! I'll try to let folks know how my seat-of-the-pants trial turns out. I'd be delighted to get rid of some of stiff shifting from my Getrag, This feels to me like...
