NICE! Mikey like.

 

These fenders have taken me 4 times longer than I thought they would. Final fitting done and in primer. Getting close now.

Nice that they are steel. Looks great!

 

Old stickers are cool. A couple of them I have had tucked away for around 30 years, just waiting for something to put them on.

And this is what makes all that work, the countless hours, busted knuckles, rework etc. worth it. Bet you was grinning like a little kid at Christmas..

 

More than you can imagine.

Looks like it launched pretty good judging by the wrinkle in the sidewalls of the slicks. Congrats on a cool car!

Here's a link to a short video of the third round of eliminations at a Gasser Racing Series event at Empire Dragway.

 

Wow that little thing really comes out of the hole quick! Must be a fun ride!

It's a blast especially being so small. Would like to add a transbrake. Only leaving off footbrake so far. Lost this race, broke out, ran 6.80 on a 6.84 dial.

YEE HAW we have liftoff.

 

Here is a shot of my Dad and I running each other for the first time. The discussion is still being argued weather he jumped the start or if I was asleep at the wheel. Will be contemplated for years to come. Lol

Very interesting, I was on a French Fiat Forum,where I shared pictures of the Fiat when I first got it. A person in France contacted me and said he knew my car and these pictures of it there in the early to mid nineties at a garage or auto salvage yard. He took the pictures and marked in yellow to confirm it was the same car.

Wow it's come a long way! That's pretty cool to get some history on it

My Dad and I, early nineties ready to head to the Willy's Home Run. Ran eleven rounds and took home the trophy and prize money. Good times in the old Anglia.

Congrats on the performance and the great good looks! And the radiused rear fenders look a 1000% better!

 

Thank you, there are a lot of challenges building a short narrow car like the Fiat

How well does it handle at the top end?
