Hi Foby,
I would really appreciate if you could share details on how you raised your suspension and what size and PCD are those alloys and tyres? thank you in advance.

I don't know whether this is the right forum to post this question but can anyone help me in sourcing the SS Chrome bumpers for a '93 model Contessa?

Doesn't matter if I have to buy them used or new but need guidance on availability.

Do we have the owner or the builder of the Orange Monster on t-bhp? Does anyone know them? Is there anyway to find the body shop that built this body? Is it Metal of Fibreglass? Can anyone please point me in the right direction? (I have about 40 more questions, but this would do for now)

But you seem to be in Kolkata and that work was carried out in Kerala. All the best for your restorations if any and do keep us posted with a lot of pictures

Yes have seen this one. It's at baand the sndt signal. It looks better in real. Not sure if it's running a powerful engine. I went there looking for a V8.

Sorry to say. The stock ones appeal to me more. Some others are okay, while others are just worked up too much. Looks a little bit riced. Did this happen in Thekkinkadu Maithanam? How many Contessas were present?
