Just out of interest how did you get around the rear fog and reverse light issue? I noticed on one of your pics that you didn't have any?

Ha Ha , had to smile when I saw those parts drying off on your heater  :)
The big radiator in my sitting room has been an almost permanant host to various Fiat parts that I have been restoring.

had a play with the 126 today, trying wheels of my mums 500 to see what they looked like,its crazy how wheels change a car! defo makes it look earlier, also cut the dash about & fitted an early gear knob & steering wheel, just need to figure out how to fit the early dash speedo.










nan came round in her seicento so took a quick snap of the fiat family tree :P

Your car does look like an earlier A/C, good job. Only 1 suggestion......maybe change the door mirrors to chrome?
Just an idea!
