I think it is a 124 spider

Ron, the 124 and 125 are extremely similar to look at, so I could well be mistaken.

My cousin here in Australia had a 124 fixed head coupe. The 125 was never brought to Australia by Fiat.

[Edit] Seems that the 125 is a large family sedan, so I must have got my wires crossed somewhere ...
It must have been the 124 convertible that I drove.

Not sure exactly what kind they are, but these look like 42'' tires, a quick Google result shows the Maxxis 42x14.5 go for $810 a tire.

A few years ago, we were staying in accommodation where another couple was also staying; they were attending a Jeep show and entering their modern Jeep, we were going along to spectate with our Gen 1 Mitsubishi Pajero (Montero). My partner commented to me that their tyres alone would have cost more than our entire rig ...later that night, they confirmed that their tyres cost many times what our vehicle cost!

And that is just part of the cost ! You are also looking at modifications to the suspension, transmission and rear end plus the cost of the custom wheels . Probably looking at $10,000+ at least

$10,000+ to ruin the offroad capability, but at least it... looks cool...?

I was playing with the Pen F black and white settings for some Miata shots, trying to capture the beauty of Tom Matano & Mark Jordan's design:
