And please post photographs of your car.

I have a great friend who had his 1948 Bentley emblem stolen and needs to find a replacement, hopefully some one can find one for him. They were the same from 1946-1953. The horse emblem is a little over the "TOP" and definitely not appropriate, but fun.

Found Some Fiat parts. Which model Fiats came with these wheel caps??

[arun1100]

I just saw Karl's gallery. 1967, '71 and '72 Delights' had the same wheel caps. Then which model of Delight had steel wheel caps similar to Premier President's wheel cap.

The Last models of Delites just before the PRESIDENT in 1972, had the steel wheel caps like the PRESIDENT but with FIAT written on them.

I too happened to find one such cover at home today- but it is not as good as the one in Ravi's pic. seems to have had a coat of black paint applied on it at one time.

Still, you're welcome to have it if you wish. 'also have one of the trim plates for the switches at the bottom. 'may still have a couple of switches lying around too.

Arun,

I think those numberplate lights are not aluminium and are of white metal, still worth than the plastic ones I have got. The window winder is aluminium and would be of much use to me. The dashboard light is the normal one and not the dimming type. Delight also came with these Lights.
Also did you enquired for the other parts??

P.S. The wheel Caps are of Delight and is also confirmed by Rony.

[arun1100]

Thanks to Rony for confirming about those wheel caps.

@Manish, I go to the Gujiri daily man. Hope to find more parts for you and me.

Hi,

Am in lucknow for the weekend found a shop that had a stock of NOS fiat parts , bought the Fuel meter and 2 white indicator lenses. I have given the guy a long list of parts to source such as side pattis, hubcaps and other trim . I have actually asked him to buy any original select/persident era part and call me. Once he updates me on the availability will post his details so that you all can benefit
I currently do not own a fiat , am just stocking some parts for the future.

pics enclosed of the fuel gauge and lenses.
