Your car should have the same lights like Padmini but in Aluminium frame. Lenses from Sweet Trade make will give a complete period look.

Also do note ram, the number-plate lights for S.select have to be in aluminium too. Both pairs of lights (tail and numberplate) came in aluminium until The President atleast.

Ram, the tail lights for your car should be like the one shown by Rony (President).
The ones you currently have are for the select. These are very very rare now, worth their weight in gold. Please keep them aside carefully for a deserving select owner.

Ram,

Those are the light which would come on select, I am looking for one. Infact I was about to call you on that. We can exchange the Tail lamps . Also Please share the Engine bay and Interior Pictures. Love the color combo.

Can anyone advice is it a good thought to start a fiat club in my city. As you all are club members so please guide me in this matter. Till date i have come across many bhpians who are originally from Lucknow but presently located in some other city/state. If i create a new thread here, will it be able to attract the attention of the people living in Lucknow who are members of this forum? Apart from you guys i think there is no one who can help me in this regard.

Dude...Way to go. Finally some more guys are taking an initiative to start Fiat Clubs in other cities.

Start a thread right now for a Fiat 1100 Club of Lucknow!!! I am sure it will grow big!

P.S: HYD boys... When are you starting a Fiat Club???

The arrangements made for the meet were not up to the mark. We had actually not expected such a large turnout.

We are now considering a real spacious venue for our upcoming mega meet/rally for the Club's First Anniversary Meet to be held next month. Suggestions from members are welcome.

This was the steering I acquired from Stephen's Square, Bangalore. Sorry, my camera is busted again, had to click using my mobile. It appears far better in real than on picture. I just love it.

Experts: Was this an original Steering by PAL. If yes, which model did it come from? It sure looks to be around S1 era.

I am sure this design did not come as OE in any PP. It looks more like a design from Maruti 1000 steering.

Arun, you are breaking my heart. Experts, please disprove Arun

I am still having a ray of hope that this could be original
