Hi Guys I thought i`d post some piccies of my 1977 series 1 Fiat 127 Saloon (ultra rare as most 127`s in the Uk are hatchback) I paid £70 for this 1 lady owner car with 12000miles from new Only problem is it`s previous owner (96 years old) reversed out the garage without opening the garage door I`ve also bought these european spec Speebline alloys Which i fitted how much stick does that need??? I reckon at least 80mm Could any of you photo shoppers lower this for me,so i can print off a copy to put on my toolbox? Hope you like but any ideas etc gratefully recieved ;D Cheers Adrian

Ah, Arnolds of Penryn! I remember when it was a Citroen garage, i went in there with my mum & picked up a brochure for the AX 'Chicago'! That must've been 1991 time. My Auntie used to live in Penryn, just up from the old Volvo garage. How did you hear about the it being for sale? Lucky it wasn't scrapped i guess! Adrian, your mission is to make it look like Kee's photoplop...

Bargain, great potential spotting and top original wheel find.

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

My mate recently bought millers garage (after working there since he left school) And it belonged to one of there customers when she crashed it she phoned them to say did they want it (because she was going to give up driving) He had it in the workshop for a couple of months then decided it was in the way, Cheers Adrian
