A really nicely built model.

I used to have a Fiat 500 back in the 70's. Fun to drive but a bit of a rust bucket unfortunately.

Now that Tamiya has released it again I will have to get one and make a model of my old car. Should be easy to change to RHD. Just  the steering wheel and foot pedals as the dash board had just one combined instrument gauge in the middle.

Watched a tv programme recently where a couple of guys were restoring a Fiat 500 but with some subtle upgrades. A reconditioned up rated engine was fitted. Front disc brakes to replace the drum brakes with a dual master cylinder. New shock absorbers.  Replacement upholstery and sunroof and alloy wheels. All fitted after the body had some repair work and complete body respray. Looked really nice when finished !
