Looks like you did not get hold of the C-pillar panel.

Yes, 1100D, I have not got the C-pillar panel. I have found one rusted piece, need to give it for chrome plating.

Saw this at Tirupur, TN about a week ago. It appears to be in use.

Spotted this Padmini last week in Bangalore. The rear bumper, number plate lights and number-plate are not the original style, though.

It is different from other Premiers. It has a Nissan engine from the 118 NE, front disc brakes and power steering.

Saw it when I had attended FCB's 5th anniversary meet. Check out the link below.

On the same page Fiat Guru, Late Mr. Dhabhar has also shared details of the challenges faced during installation of the Nissan engine in the Premier Padmini during his days at PAL.
