Slinger & I found a 600 last week in Phoenix... unfortunately, the hillbilly who owns it (and about 50 other derelict projects) cut out the underbody and placed it on top of what was once a Chevy Chevette. Brilliant. The body actually looks good, I wonder how hard it would be to place it upon a shortened VW chassis???
I like your project, looking good!!

Nice period parts, very much what I have in mind. If you didn't already have the Cosmics, I'd have bought some myself. Now I have to make do with Empi Eights (oh and an identical power pulley, but of DDS origin).

hello nico , i've dont really work on the car , i was just thinking , thinking to "the way to do it properly", first i wanted to start by the rear of the car but after a long time off reflection , i realize that it was easier to satrt by the front , so i searched how to shape a front beam , and i think to the new front whell arch cause of the cosmic wheels and the disc brakes ... so i found how to shape a front beam , next week i will buy a used front discbrakes system of" fiat panda "(euro model of fiat) and i will realize a protype to see iff i can turn the whells , after on this proto beam i will install a steering rack but i dont still now the model .... lot of work in perspective |
