Wreckmasters 1960 Nuova 500

[wreckmaster]

I guess many of you have seen my 2008 Fiat 500 1,2 pop in Blu m`ama no M`ama , the car I went to Italia and two Cinquecentisti meetings with! Well I still have my 500, but I have also bought a 1960 500N! When I bought the car it was red and had a rather poor paintjob, so this spring I sent the car away for a light restoration! The rust was welded and it was sanded down and painted in blu m`ama no m`ama just as my every day car! Still some jobs to do, but it is getting there and the plan is to go to the big 500 meeting in Heidkate, just outside of Kiel, Germany in late July

here are some pictures of how it was and how it is now. Not finished assembled yet, but it is getting there The wheels are beeing painted cream white in a few days











Painted:












Enjoy

@karateducati - quando l'ha comprata era rossa, ma tutta rovinata e arrugginita, quando l'ha fatta restaurare ha cambiato colore e ora è blu come la sua nuova.
@wreckmaster - awesome!! You did a great job!! Did you do it firsthand?

Thanks guys

The car is blue now, was red before

I bought it red a year ago, but it had a rather poor paintjob, done from a non professional and it was done outside instead of in a paintbox it also had some rust in the floor and inner fenders, so when I sold my 126 a month ago I decided to use those money on a light restoration So it is all done at a garage: welding, sanding, painting by a proffesional Now there is only the wheels left, which are going to become cream colored and some assembly left ( waiting for some parts from Germany )
