Very nice!

Do you rally with those?
 
"It's sweeeeeeeet!" as Clarkson would say.

Welcome, by the way,
 
Sorry I have been offline since SOOOO long...Busy in another Restoration....1969 Fiat 1100 Delite!

@cooldayin, No, I dont rally these, The one with the Rally livery (names on the fender and the blood groups....etc) is an exact replica of a car my dad used to rally in back in the late 1980s.

Also, Here is another one of my FIATS!! This time, its a 1964 Fiat Millicento. Very Similar to what Jay Leno has.

Also, The Engine is Very Similar to what "Oliver" has..Its a 1100cc Fiat engine which was later derived by other companies for their cars.

Neat old Fiats man. They look great!

Any plans on rallying one? That would be quite the experience.

Are those actually fiats, or are they Premier Padminis?
 
The Cream one is An Italian Fiat. The Others, (read-Blue and Grey) are Premier Padminis, Which are exactly the same as a Fiat 1100D. These cars were made under lisence from FIAT Turin, by Premier Automobiles Limited in Bombay India. So essentially, they are Fiat 1100Ds just rebadged as Premier Padminis.

I also have a Fiat 1100D from 1967 which is currently getting a Full Chassis-off full scale Restoration. I shall post some pictures of the car Pre Resto soon, The restoration will take around 1.5 months or so. Plan to Finish it before 26th of November, which is India's Republic Day. We also have a Fiat Classic Car Club of India, which has its annual rallies on Republic and Independence Day in a place called Pune which is 100miles from Bombay...........
 
I love those cars. Bombay taxis are loads of fun. Anyways, when I move to Bharat, I'm going to get one of the older boxy padminis and do a top gear-style tuning job on it.
