roymattblack Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I just thought I'd post a few pics of a future project. I got this Fiat from Ebay for literally peanuts - it's a real WRECK. Broken axles, broken frames, melted bonnet (?), loads of 'bits' in a bag....... I intend stripping it to it's component parts, cleaning and repairing where possible - I'm really hoping to get it back together with no replacement parts if at all possible, so that it really is 'restored'. I'm not starting it for some time, but I just thought some of you might be interested (horrified) at the state of it. It really is WORSE than it looks!!! Roy.

Spookytooth Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Knowing your skill Roy, it will turnout as a master piece. Simon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codger Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 This is tougher I think than a scratchbuild where you start with clean, new materials. And yes you'll make it a jewel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentwaters81tfw Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Looks like a typical FIAT to me. I'm sure you'll have it up and running for Xmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roymattblack Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 I must admit, I keep looking at the box of bits, and I'm finding it hard to resist starting to strip it down....... Roy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aginvicta Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Isn't this what the parts in a Pocher kit look like when you open the box. I'm looking forward to watching you work your magic on this one Roy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandy Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Looks like a typical FIAT to me. I'm sure you'll have it up and running for Xmas. Not enough rust! I'm sure it'll end up a shining jewel though, it's now in caring hands! Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
