Presented to the public in November 1966 at the Turin Motor Show, its production was mainly exported to the United States.
The spider was also designed Pininfarina and the “style” is the work of Tom Tjaardaun, a US designer of Dutch origin, who has worked as a designer and stylist drive almost exclusively in Italy by making cars for Ferrari and FIAT.
In 1969, the 124 Spider was the most affordable car with DOHC engine, disc brakes on all four wheels, intermittent wipers, lights control on the steering column, radial tires and manual gearbox five relationships. The car was rear-wheel drive.
The 124 Spider was a springboard and a consolidation of industrial choices towards small-scale production, moving from manual processes to those partially automated, which were very successful.
A special feature of the 124 Spider is that it was one of the two best-selling cars with the Pininfarina brand. In 1969 was presented the second set (identified by the humps on the hood), while in 1972 came on the third set.
At the end of his career, the 124 Spider was removed from the FIAT list, production has been delegated to the Pininfarina company, in fact the latest produced cars didn’t have the FIAT brand, but that of the Piningarina company.
