only a disc brake setup using fiat cinquecento/seicento parts, I have brand new calipers, discs, pads and the adapter plates just looking for the caliper carriers. When the front suspension goes back together i have negative top wishbones to go on. Later in the year i'm thinking of buying another and doing a coupe version, iv'e been playing with photoshop, (Still Learning) something along these lines   But i'll have to see how the year pans out, over worked and under paid  sure you all know the story, in Poland the aircooled was made upto 2000. they race and rally them transplanting engines 1.4 turbo, 750 fireblades. Loads of fun and more smiles per miles  |

Looks good. Coupe is certainly different but I haven't decided if I like it yet.
Matt - inspiration to get your pink one going?

I once had five up in a Dyane and experienced understeer and oversteer in the same bend. The car needed hosing out after that! ;D
Did you laugh at your mates getting trapped in the car? Those hidden door catches are a right good laugh!

Great little car there mate, I do think rear engined cars tend to look better, But then thats why I drive a Skoda Estelle. we had a 126 years ago, thing to watch out for on those was the customary tin worm which came as standard fit with most fiats. watch especially for leaking batteries, if it goes you find the front of the car dissolving very quickly. If you really wanted to be different why not get the engine and transmission from a vw or a defunct skodae and stick that in the back.! good looking car there so far.
