Will just have to say sorry mike......
Georgy is getting the treatment, Its not going to be O.T.T
like the Sedi was but nice and subtle... (Honest)
Last week end i picked up a really badly Rotten Tipo,
But it has got a full Genuine fiat body kit , Alfa 155 alloys, original spongy
roof spoiler and a near mint black and white check interior so Georgy is gonna get spoiled for being so good to me over the last 6 months....

Sounds good. The original spongy spoiler is really useful for tidying up the air flow over the rear window, keeps it clean - something I could do with as my wiper has packed in :( The 'flexible' cable between the body and the tailgate is suspected as the cause.
 
nice, i like the kit and the wheels , gives it the euro style look. cant beleive your out in this weather though , i have not touched mine for a while as its freezing , ill wait a few months for the weather to pick up again and get all my bits ready and all done in one - keep us updated again

i always like seeing your work
oh and daz was you selling a 1.4ie tipo engine on ebay ?

Oh Dear!!

But I will reserve judgement untill it is painted. Is that the white Teapot off of e/bay? Don't like the wheels I am afraid - the ones that were on the car looked much better.

Merry Christmas anyway old chap!! MIKE
 
Didn't think you would like it Mike, it will look nice when its painted i hope,Totally agree about the wheels, these look too filled in, The multi-spokes always suit a Teapot....
Yes it is the white tipo that was on E-bay , a bit too white for my liking,
also i have never ever seen a car so rotten in my life,
Thanks for your comments Graeme the Euro look is what im trying to acheive but subtle, That engine on E-bay was'nt mine but i got a 40k 1.4ie for sale...... Wish you would make faster progress on your Teapot,!!!
happy xmas to you all, Were off to Gran Canaria tommorow.....

I'd love to have the front splitter, its a job I really cant be bothered to do, but needs doing as the front is so high off the track on mine.

With all the work you have done on your track car rich putting a splitter on is a walk in the park..... Does transform the front thou...
Seat ibiza/toledo splitters are pretty funky....
 
sure not a hard job, certainly if I could get the one you have, the problem is the long list of other things to do and its so cold I cant face wearing 10 layers of clothes to crawl around the tarmac on. I remember those summer days when..........

like the body kit do you know where to get that one it looks tidy and gos with the lines of the car ive just got some tsw 17s o well out come the arches lol !!!!(y)
 
thanks guys, yeah it looks sutble which is what i wanted, no OTT boy racer styleeee,
This kit is not made any more this was the last one fiat had back in 1998 :cry: , but i got it (y), need to ditch these Alfa Speedlines dont do the kit any justice , Thanks for your comment Hellcat as we all know you like standard and for you to like this im suprised..nice one cheers..(y)
 
Nice one Dazz. I def dont like kitted Tipos, but yours looks factory!! Well done. If you got a local fibreglass man to take a mould of them, you could sell them!!

Andy.:)
