    Nice thread pal :)

    One of my fave toy cars when I was a kid was a fiat 126 as it had all opening doors, bonnet etc :)
     
  21. after a year of trying to track down original dash parts for my 500 i finally got them thanks to a very good friend in the fiat work GARY VIPOND , he managed to source them for me and at a ggod price , i stripped the dash and flattened it with 800 wet dry and hand polished and am well pleased ,

    and got a new metal sunroof clip and good headlights owen nw one step closer
