Uno Fiat UNO Turbo MK1 1985 Restoration Reshell (UNO Pastel)

Overview Gallery Discussion

Introduction

Hi peeps here is my fiat uno 55 super that i am converting/restoring into a fiat uno turbo.i.e
I have already done quite a bit so i will try to make this thread as if i have been posting over the past few months
i have all the parts needed from a donor vehicle, so i set about cleaning repairing ect ect ect
so the car is a 55 s which i purchased without seeing and got it transported to me, the main issue with uno's are rust to rear and front suspension turrets, luckily i got lots of pictures sent to me before buying and this one had a gleeming shell (strength wise)
now the colour is a bit of a marmite colour but i kind of like it all the modern fiats are in this colour so why not hey
heres some pics so far of some bits and bobs i have done so far

donor vehicle reg and bootlid on another scrap shell

next job was to make fit the turbo servo that i have spent hours with a dremmel and new paint and new brake lines,


oops forgot to mention that this aged unol didnt come with the holes for the servo to be passenger side so holes had to be cut for this, which i got right first time thank god

next job was to cut a hole for the top change gear mechanism as this is a real early uno they didnt come with all the holes for a turbo, typically my luck, but luckily i have good freinds with uno turbo's
very proud of this one, i cut this based on picture on my phone

also test fitting the wheels again for clearance on the bigger bendix punto gt front brakes and discs and 7mm caliper spacers, they go pretty well imo, but note these wheels are 14" from a fiat croma if they were the standard 13" wheels the calipers would not fit

the wheels were cut in a few years back now but there perfectly good enough for me
