Punto (Mk1) my mk1 75.

Introduction

i got my Punto about 6 months ago in very good condition, generation '96, clean, no rust, no big dents, well kept engine and all parts.. for the money i gave it was almost too good to be true..



yes it had steel rims, but it had an sporting spoiler in the back, foglights, sporting center console..



and then i found out that it was an sporting.. once in a lifetime.. but it had been crashed by some of the former owners, so it's still an sporting, just from the windshield to the back.. but i also found out that the front end was repaired pretty good, it keeps a straight line and doesn't pull to the side unexpectedly (as it would if not done properly)..

so then some changes came, since it has yellow seat covers i got an yellow gear stick knob.. also some white side direction indicators and led lights for the back registration plate..



and then the radio that i got with my car, some chinese c**p (Sound Dragon i think) started to give me headaches.. it butcered any cd i put in, not only on bumpy roads, but also on even ones and while standing in place :mad: so i threw it out and put in an Pioneer DEH2200UB, basic one with about everything i need from an car radio.. also, me and my friend made the back panel from plywood and put in 5x7 Hertz oval speakers, also enough for what i need for now..



so, after some time, my wheels started to get on my nerves.. ok, new tires were on them (Bridgestone B330 EVO) but size 155/80-13 (n) i thought of getting bigger steel rims and bigger tires but then a good offer came my way.. 25€ for 4 pieces of original alfa rims (i think from the 33 model),with tires (2 good,2 dead :D)



so now it looks like this



also, i have an laguna lip,black front direction indicators, momo steering wheel head and abarth driver bucket seat waiting to be mounted, and a lot of plans but almost no money, so this one is going to be a loooong project.. so stay tuned :D

p.s. i'm not too good in english and i probably butchered it but i hope you'll still understand :)
sold this one few days ago.. :cry: had to do it, engine was up to big servicing, paint was catastrophic (found out when i got hit by another car a month ago), so i had to do the hard thing and give away my first car :( hope the next owner will treat him better..
