Castoff: Roadside Fiat Spider

I spied this relatively well-preserved circa-1980 Fiat 2000 Spider sitting beside a road in Eugene, Oregon that borders the railroad tracks on St. Patrick's Day, but it was almost completely covered by a tarp. But when I saw it again a couple days later, the wind blew the tarp off almost all the way. While this car appears to be in restorable condition and still proudly wears its classic Pininfarina lines well, it is not as likely to be restored than a 1968-73 in similar condition due to the complicated electronic fuel injection, NHTSA-mandated impact bumpers and the later models having somewhat less attractive styling than the original design, which debuted to rave reviews in 1967 and was inspired by the Corvette-based 1963 Rondine show car, also built and designed by the good folks at Pininfarina.
