Seicento My 2.0 16v Seicento Project

Introduction

As most of you already know i was thinking of creating a 2.0 16v fiat seicento......looking at the conversion, its already causing a few issues and wont be straight forward... but im still giving it a go!!

I need to work out how to get the hub / drive shaft combo sorted.... brake callipers + lines need to be worked out, and then the most important, keeping the rear end on the floor when braking!! as i didnt realise how light these cars are with nothing in the rear...

Ive got a T reg seicento sporting with 12months MOT and 6 Months tax, so this is a good base to get started on.

So far the car has been gutted, and im in the process of cutting out the wiring i wont be needing.

Im off on a 300 mile round trip tomorrow to pick the engine up, and then the battle of fitting it in will begin!
Open to offers really, Owes me near £3k looking at reciepts, so something around there...

Gutted to let it go, but it holds money i need and has no rear seats lol...

Up for sale at £4k as everyone loves to barter... although to be fair its cost £3k in parts and the labour has been free... 6 weeks at approx 10 hours a day... labour costs at a garage would be stupid lol.

Add a mention in this month's PPC mag too :D

They mentioned about his car already. it seems like someone got there before me as i sent a picture to them about my 1242 cinq and i mentioned about the forum and certain cars on here. word is spreading about this car at a tremedous rate. deserved to be as well.

Really? I don't remember seeing anything about it in a previous issue :eek: Or was it over on their forum?

I take it you're Ricky then Mustard?
 
i emailed them about my car approx a couple of months ago thats why i was a bit surprised as i doubt they would of put it in their mag so quickly. as i said before i mentioned other cars on the forum and what people have done to them so it may be a good feature for them i.e cinq and seicentos. so they probably heard about this car via word of mouth or from this or their forum.

Anyway mate how did you know my name?
