Yes, I was there and it was a great show. Fiats were well represented and there was a great collection of great looking Fiats as well as other great Italian cars. There were three 131s present including the UK Volumetrico.

Here's the new belt for the compressor (I should get the part number details for you). (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/3.JPG) Home made sticker? or are they all like that? (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/9.JPG) Bobby Sev's car was there: (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/A.JPG) (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/B.JPG) (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/C.JPG) There was just one 132 (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/I.JPG) and here's a photo in "Kevin-style" (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/1.JPG) (Kevin does that sort of thing much better so I think I'll leave those sort of photos to Kevin ;D ;) ) The Top Gear gang were there too and spent the day filming so some of the cars may be appearing in a future episode of Top Gear (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/8.JPG) To keep me happy there was a great looking Maserati Kyalami again (I just love Kyalamis... :-* ) (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/5.JPG) (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/6.JPG) (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/7.JPG) There were also some very rare cars like this one-off Abarth 2200 (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/D.JPG) (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/F.JPG) Some great looking Fiats won several prizes. OK it was a Fiat Concourse competition so Fiats had to win but they were great cars nonetheless (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/G.JPG) (http://www.131mirafiori.com/images/SH/H.JPG) Title: Re: auto italia stanford hall ,this weekend Post by: sid131 on June 01, 2008, 10:16:14 PM The silver 131 is a beaut, is it really clean in the flesh?
Title: Re: auto italia stanford hall ,this weekend Post by: kev131 on June 02, 2008, 07:20:14 AM Fantastic "Theo style" pics T. Looks like a good day out. ;)
I'd have that 132 & 105 like a shot if they were for sale. Lovely cars. That Kyalami looks fab as well - I can see the appeal for you with that boxy styling - Definite Lancia influences in there as well I think. Title: Re: auto italia stanford hall ,this weekend Post by: mirafioriman on June 02, 2008, 05:38:51 PM Great pics, the 132 was James Nicholson's Bellini?
Title: Re: auto italia stanford hall ,this weekend Post by: Thotos on June 02, 2008, 06:58:46 PM Yes, that's right. James was there in two cars; the Bellini and a Croma Turbo.
Title: Re: auto italia stanford hall ,this weekend Post by: Baja141 on June 03, 2008, 05:46:00 AM I like the 5 spoke alloys of the 131 in the 3rd photo 8).
Any idea what brand is that, Theo ? Title: Re: auto italia stanford hall ,this weekend Post by: sid131 on June 03, 2008, 06:56:54 AM they are 5 spoke revolutions

Yes Theo the stickers are home made :D Before she was imorted from Italia some little hooligan had the originals away. I've been looking for replacements for 4 years and apart from the resin repro one that was on ebay last year theres no trace of any anywhere. The originals are made of cast aluminium like the 2000TC badges on the rear quarters (see pic).. If anyone knows of a set going for sale please let me know as its as frustrating as having the last piece of a jigsaw missing ??? |
