Its an old Fiat, it will be rusty somewhere, or more likely everywhere.

I reckon a 70's Fiat could go rusty in the desert.  |

Hello. The Fiat 238 in Practical Classics is mine. Let me know if you need any info.  |

Jammier than a jam sandwich made with jam bread! Aren't these supposed to be quite rare now?

Jammier than a jam sandwich made with jam bread! Aren't these supposed to be quite rare now? I've never see another one. I know of one other in the UK, but it's a pretty nasty-looking coachbuilt - kind of like a Karmann Gypsy affair. There's quite a few in Europe, but they're still a rare sight. |

Rust, rust and rust.oh - and a bit more rust.
If you've the French rustfree one -proceed straight to the checkout for ahuge cash payment.

There's your answer (*former-owner of many fine examples of Fiat lace). ;D 238s were used as service vans by the Fiat and Lancia factory rally teams should you need inspiration for a paint job.    If you don't put your feet through the floor, take it. |

My 238 has been away getting a bit of resto and paint over Winter, returning on Saturday. I'm beyond excited to see it in the tin, especially after receiving this teaser shot last night...  Stripes and Weinsberg decals going on next week, then it's all done. |
