Hola from Atlanta via Puerto Rico - Photos -

[velozi]

Hello,

When I was a kid in Puerto Rico, my neighbor had a Fiat that rusted badly with all the daily ocean salt breeze. Now that I live in Atlanta, I have the benefit of owning the same car but with half the rust. Benefits of a dry climate.

Learned a lot from this Board in the last couple of years but just registered some days ago. Thanks for all the help.

great site !! i've seen those bumbers lately ,somewhere

Thanks.

I got the seats from Craigslist and I think they came from a pickup truck. They are much larger than the regular seats but very confortable. I had to add some new rails in order to make them fit but it was not a big deal since the footprint was similar to the originals. They are also tall but the top clears them with no problems.

I got the front bumpers from a VW Ghia a while back. A couple of months ago, I saw the front cover of the IAP catalog and liked the look, so they went in instead of the blocks.

Welcome - nice car and good web site. With those bumperlettes, at least you won't be crashing into your garage walls, like some people we know
