This is truly a classic car, do read up on it on the internet. Depending on the originality of this car it can be in the region of Twenty to Eighty K US in the international market. And I reckon it is very rare here in Pakistan. How much is he asking for?

Junaid Bhai Update please

Yes, currently working on the Austin, also bought a MINI Cooper a couple of days back so hands are full. However, I have purchased a lot of spares for the Fiat. Got some brand new parts courtesy Mr. Rizwan (Intellect) and some old parts from Mr. Shujjah.

Will be sending the 600 for denting in the next week as soon as the Austin finishes. Will take some pictures of the spares I bought and will put them up later tonight.

For shipping stuff through Daewoo Bus Cargo, all one needs is the name of the person & contact number, to whom the shipment is to be addressed. One doesn't need address. Once shipped, communicate the shipment number to the person in receipt of the shipment and the person would go himself and collect the shipment by mentioning the shipment number and producing his CNIC.

So finally got some time of the Austin, have started work on the Fiat now. I have shifted the denter and his entire shop to an old house of mine so that he can only work on my cars. I have bought a welding cylinder and all the tools required.

There was a lot of rust on the 600 so got that all wire brushed and had a coat of primer applied on it. Nasirs denter did not do a great job on it as there were still little dents visible after the coat of primer all along the panels. Hence, it will be taken apart and re dented. A few pictures

Hard to miss the Mini parked next to the Fiat, is that also a project of yours? Any details/pictures that you could share about it?

I went through your Austin restoration and was quite impressed by the Denter's speed and quality of work, not something you find easily. Where in Lahore did you find this guy?

Good luck with your projects!

Yes recently bought it from Islamabad. The frame is in good condition, as in there is no major accident . Doors and the boot had been removed by the previous owner as he had started the project earlier. The engine he had purchased as this car was without one. My good luck that it is in top shape. So all in all a very doable project. Just needs some time, have already ordered the bumpers and the grille and the lights. Will be starting the thread soon...need to get the Austin and the Fiat process warped up a bit.

This guy I have known for ages. My dad used to get his work done from him. Since my project cars seem to increase every month so I have hired him on a permenant basis. Have shifted his entire shop to an old house of mine so I can keep a check on him:P
