Breakers Yard - Fiat 900

[tysonian]

Hi all,

 

My partner recently purchased a Fiat 900 camper (some of you may well have seen Dave's previous post). However, the bodywork is a patchwork quilt of dodgy welding, rust and filler requiring major work from the waist down... Mechanically it is pretty good, so we are looking to build one good van from two dodgy ones.

 

So if anyone knows good hunting grounds for a second 900 that is managably rusty we would be very appreciative!! We thought skulking around ebay and scouring breakers yards may be one approach, so if you have any suggestions.....

 

Cheers,

 

Tyson

this time last year a couple of 'projects' apppeared on ebay but for silly money - £800 + ...they look so cute I think a lot of punters buy em without realising they need a lot of work. Certainly worth putting a 'notify me' on your ebay acocunt

To update: my partner has just bought a second van, this time a rarer but largely identical Fiat 850T camper. Mechanically I understand they are pretty much the same thing, just with different nose and tail lights. This one was a project for someone who ran out of space, been off the road for 14 years. So proud of her mad tenacity!!!
