Fiat 126 -73 restoration [ Now: It's ALIVE...!!! :) ]

[Tate]

Some new photos. Now the car is in primer. Still a lot to do..

[Tate]

Something new again..

Sealed all the weldings from the car. Not so pretty now but hopefully it will slow down the rust from coming up.









Painted also the inside of the car with a paintbrush.

 Tate the car is starting to look good, can`t wait to see it finished.

 How did you fit the 600 gearbox and what did you need to modify? What drive shafts did you use?

Thanks. Fitting 600 gearbox was quite easy. I had only to make custom fastenings to the body. I'm not sure which drive shafts I will use because I haven't got the tripods yet.
