Hey Cyrus,

i was looking at your call BLL 4919, thats when i remembered an article in BSM (Business Stardard Motoring) covering this car and the owner. Gosh i remember reading it and saying, i need to get myself a 1100 and then slowly restore that car and do it up the way i can picture it in my dreams. I have not yet realised my dream but do intend to do it one day. My love of fiats began with my dads 1975 model Blue 1100. Gosh ive been looking for it for a while now (MEJ 6732).

cheers, keep up that spirit.

Sharan

I know alot of you here will sharpen your knives after reading this, but i want this combo to be my next project. This time though, it will be on a normal padmini...
Of course, the car will have normal Black Wheels and tires. and the car will have standard bumpers with one of the Crommodora Italiana Grilles that are lying at home.

Anyways, comments...
