That looks lovely and clean. If it was mine I would be doing some subtle performance and handling related modifications. Maybe some decent springs and shocks, slightly bigger wheels and decent tyres and some breathing mods.

I think standard but well prepped is the way to go.

A bit of history for ya:
When we got the 1st prototype RHD Tipo's in the UK, we were supposed to have the 16v for the launch in '88 but it was pulled last minute for the impending new emission laws so catalysts could be added, after the redesign we never ended up getting them until '92 and by then had lost 7-8hp over the originals.
We only got 3 cars initially, which were converted by hand to RHD, a 1.4, 1.4DGT & 1.6DGT. These were used for homologation by the MOT (VOSA), these hade regno's E___KLN
The UK 16v launch cars (stampa dinamica) had extra soundproofing and were "chipped" at factory by Weber to extract more hp to compensate for the cat
Theses cars had the reg, J___MLD
I remember the blurb at launch said that they would be using this type two chassis for the next 10 years! I actually surpassed that!

The Tipo seemed to be one of Fiats better efforts they don't seem to rust as bad as other cars from Fiat, for example The Panda. Looks like you have a very tidy car there enjoy |

It's quite possible that I've never seen a Tipo Sedicivalvole in real life. Ever. Fantastic! Looking forward to more pics!
