Little red BIS
« on: January 03, 2013, 08:37:55 PM »
hehehe love this thing!
Got lucky with a spot from a friend on rero rides and picked her up nice and cheap, been looking for a little while for a dead cheap one to fix up, but one that was more or less complete and ran. ( Seen alot of dogs )
Well I hit the jack-pot with this one.




The fella i got it from was kind enuff to throw in almost a whole other car in the form of spares into the deal ( most of which will be sold once iv sorted through it all! )
So far things are looking pritty good, only a small amount of welding , a gear box mount, a exhaust swap, and small timing adjustment being all thats needed to make my little car roadworthy again.

2nd person to point out the exhaust? Should I be worried?

And tbh - bit of both , looking at fitting a bike engine at some point over the summer. 1st jobs to get it on the road again. I have 2 other cars so its kind of a side project/toy , just want it as a cheap run about. Tho i think iv fallen in love.

The exhaust it doesn't last that long and it a sod to get on small gap and it just doesn't fit around the end of the engine I think it would be easier to take the engine out to fit it

I'm restoring one at the moment i think the car is fun without changing anything

Good luck
fiats forever

That's do'able! Think thats a full loom there and the one on the cars fine!  Open to offers or swaps on anything ^^
