KAS,

Very nice looking Berlina with Turbina wheels. Any interior and engine bay pictures?

Beautiful interior!!

I noticed you have 2 additional switches on the center console, what are these, power windows?

Are those Dellorto carbs?

Correct, Dellorto`s. And those two switches.... i gues that they are switches for foglamps at the front and 1 in the back. There`s a hole in the rearbumper en 2 in the frontbumper. Those in the frontbumper are covered by chrome plates to hide those nasty holes. Maybe i fit foglamps in the future but i`m affraid they spoiled the looks.
Maybe you`ve noticed the electronic ignition. That`s a modification and it works very well.

Lord, lord. That is such a beautiful car! Still, please give me a ballpark figure. How much do you have invested? I bet it's not less than what my Mondial cost, $35K. (I hope I'm wrong, though.)

Sorry to be so crass, but I have wanted a Berlina since 1973, but now it just seems like the only way to get one worth having is go all out like you did. I've got to know how far from sensible it would take me to get there. OK?

Best regards,

It was expensive enough that Haig had to sell his Super to me to help pay for the restoration.

Haig....well done, that's a lovely Berlina. I'm in the middle of restoring an identical car (although RHD).

Just a few quick questions, I notice the headrests on the front seats, did you use 2000 seats? My seats need recovering, so I'm thinking I'll use the seats from the 2lt parts car, although purists may criticise this cause it's not original.

Also, what suspension and wheel/tyre combo are you using? It looks slightly lower than standard ride height. I want mine to sit a fraction lower still I think.

Would love to see more pics, particularly of engine bay!

Damien

69 berlina

Damo,

If you go back to the earlier posts..page 1 2 and 3....there are a few posts showing the interior...engine bay...ride height etc..etc..
The head rests are the same..just re-upholstered...and they are not from a later model....also the engine is a 2 liter..and not 1750...

As for the ride height....which will follow next month...we are experimenting with 3 sets of spare wheels and tire sets in the trunk...which is adding weight ,creating that low profile in the rear....so.....we are about to keep that profile in the rear....and lower the front ...to balance....

Also ..in later posts..i discussed the issues of fitting the 28 mm offset panasports...and tires... without any rubbing issues...etc....

Heres another engine bay photo...enjoy..and good luck with your right hand drive
