I’m currently restoring my wife’s topolino.
I’m in Australia which has been challenging getting things.
The car was a basket case with rusted out floors and had been hit on every corner at some stage in its life.
I’m needing some help in a few areas.
1) the gauge faces are very yellow and I can’t get them to clean up after polishing so I’m guessing I’ll need to get new ones.
2) window latches for both doors
3) it’s a solid roof car not a soft top and I can’t see how a hood lining would go in.
I have the bows but I’m a bit perplexed how you’d tension a lining over doors opening and front and back.
Any pics or clues would be appreciated.
So far I have as you can see painted the car, I’ve run all the wiring and I’m now going to through fixing what I have to make it look good.
All the brake lines and wheel cylinders master have been done.
