So, whilst the paint saga continues, work on the shell progresses apace. The decision to replace the nearside wing has pushed the finish target date back somewhat but we are sure that it is the right decision. Using the original wing would have made it almost impossible to get a decent swage line, such was the damage inflicted on that wing during CUC's rallying days. However it's in place now, the door shuts have been fettled as close as we think we will ever get them and the extensive front panel and valance repairs have been completed. That leaves the rear valance, windscreen surround and one or two odds and ends to attend to. Then we will give the underside a coat of etch primer followed by another of black stone chip paint.

Meanwhile the sub frame, suspension units, steering gear and back axle have been dismantled, repaired as necessary and sent for blast cleaning along with a number of other bits and pieces. Hopefully they will be back to be painted and re-assembled whilst the shell is at the spray shop.

The gearbox is with Neil Shepherd awaiting various parts from Italy prior to re-assembled and a wiring loom is on order.

At the same time attention will be given to re-furbishing electrical and trim items and cleaning all the bright work.

We have now courtesy of Ebay found a pair of Cibie spots and covers (at a reasonable price!) and a pair of full harness seat belts again at a good price. Still searching for a pair of period seats, Corbeau GT4 or Alpine would be nice!

Jonathan assures me that we are still on schedule for Fulvia 50th! Smiley

Robin.

I will be driving all the way from Harpenden.  I should be in with a shout for that surely?  It does involve the M25 after all.  Grin

OK guys, tracking down Rosso san Siro (Glasurit 212) is getting critical as CUC is booked to go to the painters a week today! Extensive inquiries have drawn a complete blank.

So, does anyone know of a Fulvia in this colour from which I can get a colour match?

Long shot but try these people who I got an exact paint match for Grigio escoli for me from a paint code:

And this car is in Suffolk but no idea if correct Lancia colour...

Here's some photos of Neale's car. Not so much a modified Sport, more an original "Competizione" car with some of Neale's embellishments.

Eureka!! We have located the Rosso San. But, like buses that always come in 2s so too with the paint!

Folowing up all the suggested leads the first to come up trumps courtesy of Jonathan (Bruciebonuz) was the RS Bike Paint company. They instantly located the colour and could mix it but only in cellulose. Ordered a small quantity in the hope that I might be able to get a match in 2 Pack.

When I collected the Fulvia Berlina from Richard Fridd he took me to Kent Car Panel and Paint Centre in Maidstone. The guy who mixed the paint was not there so they could not help. However, today he said that he had found a Lechler colour chip for it  and could mix it. So shot over for a sample, brushed it on to a panel and it is just what we want. Smiley

Many thanks guys for all the help.

Robin.

Go back a couple of posts for an update on the paint saga.

Good progress once again with the welding almost completed now so the shell is booked to go to the paint shop this coming Friday. They say 2 weeks and it should be back with us.

Subframe, suspension, steering, rear axle and all the small bits and pieces should be back from the blasters this week. Wiring loom scheduled for 1st April and stainless steel sleeved rear brake caliper pots back this week.

So, soon be reassembling which will no doubt bring its own problems. Anyone got a pair of decent rear light units to save me having to resort to Italian Ebay?

Robin.

Yipeeee!!! Fanalone went to the paint shop yesterday. Absolute joy to walk into the workshop and not see it standing there demanding more attention. Before it went we re-made and fitted Barry's fire barrier metal panel  to the rear seat back Paint man was very complimentary about the quality of the repairs and reckons two weeks tops to complete the job. We'll see!!

Meanwhile back at the ranch no let up, well not for Jonathan at any rate, I'm off to France for three weeks on Monday. Cheesy The running gear came back from the blast cleaners yesterday and now needs painting and re-assembling. Wheels are away on Monday for refurb and parts from Cavalito awaited to complete gearbox rebuild.
