The Fiat 124 badge comes with some incredible heritage that dates back several decades. The first instance of this iconic number pairing for this Italian automaker can be traced way back to 1966 when it was produced as a sedan, Sport Coupe and Sport Spider. The car was sold in North America as well, to much acclaim, renowned for its diminutive dimensions, fizzy little engines and fine driving experience as the Italians were, and continue to be known for to this day. When Fiat decided to retire the 124 Spider around 1982, renowned Italian design house Pininfarina (who were involved in its design) decided to take over manufacturing. They marketed the car as the Pininfarina Azzurra for a further three years. Here, we’ve got one of those cars, a 1983 Fiat 124 Spider Pininfarina Azzurra with just 35,000 miles on the clock since undergoing a full restoration. The car comes with a rebuilt engine and gearbox too, and resides in Annapolis, Maryland.
Exterior and Interior
The beautiful lines of this 1983 Fiat 124 Spider Pininfarina Azzurra are the result of American auto designer Tom Tjaarda, who was working for Pininfarina at the time. The car’s white paint job is reportedly a repaint, and it does fine justice to the timeless elegance of its overall shape. The convertible soft top comes in tan, which is a great shade to complement a light-colored body. Despite looking long thanks to its substantial overhangs and elongated bumpers as per North American safety regulations, the car is actually around 157 inches in length, and under 64 inches wide. Today’s subcompact hatchbacks can dwarf this little Fiat! The tan leather passenger cabin of this car features two seats, a comprehensive analog gauge pack, three pedals, a gear stick and a sporty steering wheel as main features. But wait, there’s more. Power windows, air conditioning and a radio with a tape player are also present, making this 1983 Fiat 124 Spider Pininfarina Azzurra more comfortable than you’d expect.
Engine
The 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine that powers this 1983 Fiat 124 Spider Pininfarina Azzurra has reportedly been rebuilt, as has the 5-speed manual gearbox that it’s connected to. The car is rear-wheel drive and uses a live axle. The front suspension, on the other hand, is an independent design. Disc brakes are present all-round.
