Got any pics of the car?

[CrowBar]

Pics on the way....the weather has sucked here and I'll take some good ones tomorrow. BTW - the seats are cordaroy cloth and are MINE so back off...they happen to be power seats which was very strange in a Gold model.....I thought only Platinums had them.

This car is basically good for stripping bizzare parts that aren't obtainiable from Fiat anymore....arm rests, switches, relays, trim, etc. I'd like to keep heads and gearbox, seats and door panels. Everything else can go, and I will sell door panels and seats from my current 89 Gold driver which are the twead style, not cordaroy.

What colour in the indicator script....I'm in the market for an indicator switch unit with orange script.(mine died last week !!)

[CrowBar]

Forgive me.....I know I sound like a fool, but when you say 'indicator' are you referring to 'turn signal'? My years of reading Haynes manuals SHOULD have solved this lingual difference, but I'm drunk at the moment and I want to make sure I know what you mean.

FYI - I think it is all Green....Everything stamped on the lables for the clusters says "verde"....maybe just a U.S. thing?

Seriously - no sarcasim...I am just pissed drunk.
Thx

Thanks CB

It's a bit of a problem when you have to deal with cars which were spec'd for different markets.

In NZ we have two different colour schemes for the "turn signal" and other dash instruments.

I have a late '88 3.0 which has an orange colour scheme (only the Italians !!) where a friend has an early '89 which has a white colour scheme.

I have a feeling that the cars we have down here are spec'd for the UK market as they're RHD but I'm yet to confirm it.

PS, Don't worry about the lingual variations....I'm translating from English to Antipodean/Pigeon and back again constantly...it's a nightmare!

PPS, Yikes if you're reading this..do you realise that if you're modifying a 3.0 it's one of only 12 or so left in the country

Do you still have a driver's seat? Mine is all torn up, and have been looking around. What kind of shape is yours in?

Thanks.

[CrowBar]

Alas, I am keeping the front seats......HOWEVER, I have purchased a Silver that I am going to part out, and I'm picking that up Wednesday. I'll let you know.

That's too bad. If you would let me know about the silver seats, that would be greatly appreciated!

From what I've read on other threads the Milano "Gold" has white instrumentation...it's only the Verde that got the orange that I'm looking for.

I have however found one that is a little closer (6834 miles closer to be more precise)....I phoned a friend and hey presto!!!

Thanks anyway
