hi just thought id say hello(y) im new to old fiats, mostly had aircooled vw's, but just bought a little fiat 850t camper van! always wanted one but they very rarely come up for sale, loving having something different and enjoy welding so ideal car for me... lol

yep, already started the strip down, and as i thought the whole bottom 6' needs new metal! but there is only one patch needed on one of the outriggers so underneath is pretty solid. waiting for a new water pump and fuel pump then i can get it running before the mechanicals come out.
 
Take some pics at each stage and post them as you go - will be good to see the transformation! Then you can start bringing it to the meets!
 
some pictures of my project:eek:
