As everybody knows I'm a little partial to an FSO.

 

I already own one of these

but I was hankering after some 125p action so I decided to lob a cheeky bid on this at the last minute probably against my better judgement and I won :D

Blimey, a large pile of festering beigeness..................you're a brave man, good luck!

Posted

Crikey! That must be an early one...Good Work :D

Doesnt look too bad Ben.

 

I've nearly all the panels for one of those ,and most of the mechanicals -if you get stuck. Most of it is near identical to the earlier Fiat 125 -except the running gear -Fiat 1500. Shout if you nned help

Thanks for the comments guys and Nigel I may be in touch :)

You know where I am..

 

It'll be fun. Good luck

Posted

Brave, brave man. Nice one!

Posted

Just like to add my congrats for saving it! Was watching that and desperately hoping it would be saved. One as early as that must be very rare?

 

Also like your Caro's. I had a hatch identical to yours a few years ago and loved it but stupidly ebayed it for £100 when I was having a clearout and have regretted it since. Anyone know what happened to N180JVT? It no longer seems to come up on the DVLA website. I fear the worst :(

Is the back full of reels of mig wire? GOOD LUCK! :P

Posted

blimey, that is a brave purchase! Good luck with it..

 

Love the dashboard.....can it get any more basic??

Posted

Well done that man :D

 

I do like to see an FSO saved.

 

I regret ever selling any of mine in the past now :(

Posted

BRILLIANT!!! I was watching that one myself, but lack of storage space precluded my bidding. As a fellow eastern European car lover, I take my hat off to you, sir! I await reports....

Posted

Benno, where abouts roughly are you based? I'm sure I saw a similar pickup to your Caro near Oakham/Rutland water around X-mas time.

Posted

Nice one benno! 8) Best of British luck with the new acquisition! :D

Posted

You are a well-known AS WINNAH, therefore this comes as no surprise! :mrgreen:

 

I am loving the beige wheels.

Hi Chaps,

 

Thanks for all the comments, just looking forward to getting it home now. I managed to secure an old workshop/garage/shed (delete as applicable) near to my house to store a few cars in so at least it will be kept dry. It's accessed off a shared drive and I had the lady who lives at the top of the drive giving me ear ache yesterday, apparently I need her permission to use the drive but I'm told by the owners that I have right of access, I look forward to seeing her face and I do hope she is around when this beauty gets delivered.

I know of a y reg estate and I'm sure there must be others out there but being a 1979 v it is a polski fiat which makes it even rarer. There is a Caro for sale in classic car weekly for £450. It has tax until the end of April and has a few months mot. Also comes witha van load of spares, No it's not mine before anyone asks :D

 

It has a few rough patches but is basically sound. Here are some photos if anyone is interested.

Very nice, Always have had a soft spot for battered old pickups.....Polski more than most.... 8)

Had my polski fiat delivered today, tyres were so flat I couldn't get it in the garage and I couldn't put air into the tyres as the wheels are so rotten. It is currently stored on the neighbours farm as I couldn't push it into my garage. I know someone that has four wheels so hopefully I can get those fairly quickly so I can get it in from the rain. I have some more photos that I thought one or two of you may like to see.
