    Thanks Guy

    Thought you would know !!

    I have bought an ex California 2000 - 1979 - white - doesn't have all the emissions crap on it - Bodywork (from photos) is 99% rust free which is the big bonus !... I will go and pick it up mid/end Feb.

    Hopefully it will look something similar to this...

    My skills don't stretch to those of Mr Savage so I have decided to stick to simple stuff !

    I did get prices from Guy Mourenhout but just thought I would check out prices from other suppliers

    Cheers

    The wings I linked to are the wrong ones if that's the style you're after. Are you going to git a hardtop too? Suspect you might need the entire bonnet with the scoops opened up? Look forward to seeing it sometime, if the body is straight & rot free they're an easy resto project, all the parts available from the likes of Spider Point in Germany, I think most others have the same source of parts for them. Assuming you're staying LHD sidedraught twin 40's won't fit as the steering fouls. You'll need to find a "waffle" manifold and downdraughts. Have fun!

    Just looking at Guy Croft's site and came across this advert for a waffle manifold.

    That's the manifold but the ad is from 2012? I'm sure I don't need to warn you, but I will, that the Fiat and Lancia ones are different as the Beta was tilted back 20 degrees. Having said that, most of the waffle manifolds out there will be a Fiat fitment.
