1974 Fiat 126 'Tetto Aprible' Restoration

[Kent126]

Front brake backing plates went off for shot blasting and powder coating yesterday and also the steering box has been sent off to ICS classic car steering in Birmingham for a complete refurb. Trying to find anyone who sells new or recon RHD boxes is a nightmare.

Rang Ricambio and they said they are like hens teeth.

Needless to say a fair bill probably coming my way.

Anyway hopefully things are moving and it'll be back on its wheels very soon!

New refurbished front stub axles arrived from Italy today. Thanks to Gianluca at Pizza Ricambi. Thoroughly recommend his services. Also last two bits have come back from the powder coaters. Now just waiting for the steering box to come back.

Refurbished steering box arrived yesterday, which means next week I can start getting all the suspension and steering back on the car and should be able to roll it out of the garage! [emoji4]
