Punto (Mk1) Project Fiat punto gt turbo

Introduction

so guys and girls... finally made a project thread bout the my mk1 punto..! So 12years ago my dad gave me my mk1 punto elx 75 1.2 as you do I started playing with the car Changing the bumpers then the wheels then before I knew it I was taking the dash out and playing with the whole car..!!

Ended up sanding the rough dash down so it was completely smooth and changed the fog switches to blue and white from the original green
Took the rear seats out , fitted bucket seats in the front, center dtm exhaust, fiat coupe 16v wheels , twin angel head lights brembo calipers from a fiat coupe 20v , coilovers then ended up fitting a set of type k wide wings , type k rear splitter then smooths it into the rear bumper , fitted an abarth front spiltter and smoothed that in

Then ended up doing a full punto gt engine conversion..!!
Wow, didn't realise you had such an awsome car, congratulations!!
 
Sorted out the carbon mirror caps as they was looking sorry for them self's but not no more..!! And started on the car audio bits

Yeh mate crazy to think tbh but yeh fiat don't hold alot of gt stuff no more but they share alot of parts from othe models like the coupe
The guys at the local Fiat are very good at searching when I’ve been looking for something, they usually come from Italy and only take a few days to arrive, I went in recently to order a timing belt which they could source but advised against it as it’s probably quite an old stock one .
 
so been having fun.... taken the old brake booster and clutch hydraulic out due to faulty and started to rust so out with the old and in with the new...!!! Spoke to fiat and no stock in England but I believe I have the last brake booster and clutch hydraulic slave from fiat in Italy.... need to turn the brake booster around then it can be fitted .
