Title: Fulvia Radiator Muff
Post by: ah_sprite on 02 January, 2011, 05:39:00 PM
Hi all
I remember seeing a topic on here where there was a link to somebody selling a chequered radiator muff - can anybody remember where this is on the net? All help appreciated!

Martin Willems in the Netherlands sells them, which is where mine came from.

There is a muff for an S1 Coupe on e-bay at the moment.

I have never seen them advertised in the UK, fortunately my Fulvia was supplied with a muff when I bought it from the previous owner in 1984, after he imported his own car from Italy in 1982. (sadly the rubber has begun to perish  :-[)

Thanks for all the replies so far.

I'm after one that's black and white chequered pattern, I definitely saw a link to a site (possibly in the Netherlands) on here about a month or two ago, and it was for a Series 3 Fulvia. Any ideas?! I've had a search but can't see anything, and I can't be dreaming, surely!


Cheers
Richard

I seem to remember they were black rubber with white'ish plastic slides
that gave it a chequered pattern when fully closed.

Geoff/richard,
 
Is this is what your thinking of ? I posted photos previously, but I haven't seen this pattern for Coupe.
Just looked on Martin Willems site, he is only listing for Berlina but even that's not the same as this.

Yes Brian, that's the one, I actually had one for a coupe
but it went with the Fulvia & parts I sold recently.

I think we may have one in the recently aquired Gamma parts as well,
don't think the Gamma ever used one (I could be wrong)

I originally bought one about 1997 for my Series 1 1.3 Rallye Coupe from Omicron, which was in a right Yukkie Green and similar to bthe one on Ebay, that also started to perish, but I'm blowed if I can think whatever happened to it, probably still up in the loft somewhere with my spares!
Bit annoyed  I went to remove it the other day to check something and the fixing plug at the bottom left partly tore away, as it's quite a tight fit btween the bars of the grille, tried a bit of superglue but it didn't work, I shall have to have a rethink unless anyone has any good ideas.
