General cromas being scrapped or broken

[cricklewood]

Does anyone know of any croma's being broken? I need a section of n/s rear sill/ arch. Found one at alfa breakers in sherburn in elmet (the one being broken on ebay) They want £100+ VAT + postage, seems a bit expensive? thanks

If anyone knows where it is I'd quite like the wheel hub centre caps and the rear wiper motor off it.

Oohhh

Such a shame... Made me wince to see that a bit of damage like that means he end of another of these relatively rare cars.

...which means all ours are a step closer to being vintage rare collector's items! (yeah, right)

BrianMcl... I recently replaced all my centre caps with plain grey ones off ebay. They're fine but are very blank, so I've just ordered these to glue onto them...

I know they're the wrong Fiat logo but what the heck, I'll modernise it! I did see blue ones, but they're not the old logo - they're the new one but in blue. So at least the red ones are a real logo.

Anyway... if you want to be all boring and original I do still have 3 of the originals - 2 have all five clips but one only has three of five. These are to suit 18" wheels, 68mm diameter. I'll chuck them on ebay for a 1p no reserve auction tomorrow if anyone wants them.

Actually - if you want them PM me with your name and address. You've helped me out loads in the past, so I'll just post them to you if they're any use.

Here they are - mostly just mucky but with some surface damage...

Hi Doofer, that's very kind of you, thanks.

I can't work out how to pm from my old Nokia phone so I'll get a computer later this morning and drop you a message asap.
