    it was shit tonnes of work! bad assed looking car though. i will see if i can find some pics of it
    Now this I would like to see, don't forget to find the pics!!

    I met up with a guy and got a ride in a 500 with a VW powered 2180 roller crank 48 IDAs. He was a tall guy and his head would stick a bit out the sunroof. It was a pretty wild ride...


    I drove a 600D for a couple years as a DD. Had like a whopping 30hp and 5-6 of it went to the waterpump/radiator fan!! Still a blast to drive, even fit driving down sidewalks.

    Found a guy that was selling off a shit load of new/old-stock 600 and Multipla parts that looked to be from a dealer. All new engine (pistons valves bearings gaskets...) and trans parts that came in very handy for the rebuild.

    I was in Columbia for a few months and seen a few driving around, I went to the dealer (the fiat dealer!!) and was able to find some parts that are non existent here. Euro tail lights, fan shroud boot, etc.

    Also had one converted to VW engine/trans never really finished it and not registered but was drivable and drove a few times switching plates with my other one.

    Wish I still had it....

    you could rebuild it, but it still won't be a 500

    yes do want, I hate smart cars in general and fill the hippiemobiles with a cloud of diesel soot as I pass. But that would be a blast to fuck with people in my town we have 6-7 of them that I see all the time, and I think a smart club too. I would love to show up to the meeting in that thing, and see the smug turn to pissed.

    Parts I would I imagine would be difficult to find in the U.S. But once that thing is restored it will be an orgasm of cool.
