My 131 Racing now has an MOT  Smiley  It only needed two front brake hoses so that was a result to say the least.

The Racing has RHD outer headlights now ('cause I'm in the UK) and a full engine service with new cam belt and tensioner.  Albert kindly gave me a set of 14" wheels for the car (the originals were 13") which have been fitted on the Racing now with good tyres.

The car came complete with a floor at no extra cost  Cheesy  I never knew if the outer end of the jacking point was supposed to be welded to the bottom of the sill or not as I was often the second (or third) person to weld the floor back together  Wink  But now I know   Cheesy

I'm going to try to post some pictures now so wish me luck  Wink

Looks very nice Steve - Liked your comments about the floor. It's nice to have a car that's original in that regard isn't it?? Smiley

As a matter of interest where did you source your RHD outer headlights? I've been searching for a pair for some time now.... Smiley

Hi Kev, thank you.  Got the MOT now, need to apply for plates......

I was so amazed to see a Sport / Racing floor complete, I was welding them in the early 90s  Cry

For the outer headlights I bothered everyone that I could think of from every RHD "oasis" on more than one continent, to be honest I ended with more lights than I needed - PM me and I'll be happy to pass on anything that you are interested in at the cost that I paid,

Best regards, Steve

Steve, I am happy that you are so glad you bought the car.

There was a Heini standard, now there is an Albert standard. Wow, that feels good but is really what I want to show. The story as it is, no more, no less and that is mostly the biggest problem when you wanna buy a car. Everything is glorious and far better as new, till you are there to have a look. And then people tell you, well it's not a new car, what did you expect.......... I hate that and prefer better one serious customer who knows the ins and outs as 10 customers from who you know they will be disappointed. Like many other fans I drove literally 1000s of kms for my dreamcars and also had quite a few negative surprises, but lucky me, it also works out more than once in the good direction Grin
So enjoy it as much as you can!

My 131 racing is now registered in the UK  Smiley 

All the forms for the DVLA drove me mad so I asked Graham from  "classics and cabriolets" for help (member grahamS53)  Between Graham and Paul it was less than a week from posting the docs to having a tax disc in my hand - discount for forum members  Wink

Duncan and Al came up at the weekend from Wiltshire for a FIAT 131 day out (members 124AC and AW106)

Petrol station calling - no surprise there, the first person I saw said "I had one of those - it was so fast" and so it went on...a car transporter waved and flashed it's lights and a guy I haven't seen for years pulled up and said "you bought another one then Steve - that was always going to happen"

So time for some pics....have cars got bigger?  That's a VW Passat in front....
