Hi Gary that one thats for sale do you know it & have you any pics or history etc? just cant figure out why after the restoration thats quoted on the ebay listing would it be ever for sale, thats unless it was a quick make over to move on, i am sure a good few lads on this site would like more info & pics of this car, i myself have emailed the seller & asked for pics but as usual got no reply, sorry but its manners to reply to someone that appreciates your car,
i cant help you with the info you need but i hope some of the folks on here can help you, Nick

I read somewhere that Fiat had a factory in Australia making Fiats for that market because they reasoned that it would be cheaper than shipping them over so if this is true? then your 131 would have come from there or maybe they were knockdown kits sent over and assembled there.

Never heard of this, must be a stealth factory!
