re: Fiat 1100 Club - Bangalore [FCB]

Tail lamps look really nice. I assume the pair on the left is the cast one. If possible do share what it cost you.
By indicator lenses do you mean the fish type side repeaters or front round park lights?
PS: Deepak ji are white front park light lenses for Padmini available in B'lore.

Congrats on finally getting the much-needed original tail-lamps Col.!!

I'm so happy to know that your Mille will finally be getting back its much-deserved original look!!

Have also managed the Indicator lenses, need to get a photo of its base so that I can fabricate it. After this the only parts I require are the lock of the boot and three hubcaps. Headlights I do not plan to change unless I get the originals.
This great Colonel, these have come out real shinny. As for the side lights. It is similar to the once that came on 1959 (which I have, can be of reference) only thing they are smaller in size.

There is one guy who has these originals on his car, you can take referrence from those. His care came from Bihar. Here are the pictures. However the difficult part would be to fabricate the backelite connectors.

Hi Manish,
Don't know if he had the tail lights of the 59 model. I am still holding on to those tail ights and the front parking lights which you had wanted (photographs of which I had posted some time ago).
Fabricating the base for the front indicators should not be a problem as it is circular in shape. Which bakelite connectors are you talking about?
There is a shop in Shivajinagar who has the tear drop shaped lenses for the front indicators, he also had the small round side indicator units.

Yes the unit for the left hand side is the cast one, though from the exterior you cannot make out. By indicator lenses I meant the round type which is there in front of my 56 model, it does not have indicators on the side. Manish's post above shows the type required by me.
I do not know if the front park light lenses are available here. I have seen the tear drop shaped lenses in a shop.

Dear Mr.Vipul Mathur - please PM me your contact number. My contact in Mumbai's infamous "Chor Bazaar" happens to have this cylinder head lying in his shop. If you want, I can ask him.

Best regards,

Near Bhashyam Circle of Rajajinagar, there is a Shanti Sagar hotel. In one of the lanes there, this FIAT is there. Good LUCK.
