go ahead cyrus and do something like this in your fiat. i've seen lots of mods on your model cars. make it a crowd puller. from a distance it looks like a padmini only.

Who says i have removed the Muffler?? 1144 was recently running on a Half Pipe Setup. That means no Tail pipe AFTER the Muffler!!
It is now on a 1-1/2 inch pipe setup. I am testing out Permutation-combinations for an ideal exhaust note. As of now, The engine feels very Restricted.

SCOOP!!!! I just got news from someone that Bangy has Two more LHD Fiats. One is an elegant and one may be a late 70's early 80's registered Delite. So that makes it 11???

As far as i know,
4 in pune
3 in bombay
2(3??) in Hyd
And now 2 in bangy

Also, i have heard rumors that there is a pristine Delite LHD with the Italian Consulate!! But it is just a rumor!
