Hey new to the group just bought 77 fiat with newly rebuilt engine one parts car ready to do some body mods like fender flairs would like to find some rims that are maybe 3 to 4 inches wider than stock I had a set of enkel about 25 years ago they kind of looked like the porsche bbs rims if anyone has any leads that would be great,, I would like to do the fender flairs like the 930 turbo porsche I saw a pic of a fiat with flairs about 20 years ago that was on a bayless magazine out of italy that was really cool they were about 4 inches wide and sloped like a nas car. I am a gear head I'm also working on a lambo countach prova. but I would like to get the fiat up to par first.. they are alot of fun I have had 4 of them in the past the first one when I was in the army back in 84 that was a fun car,,, anyway I'm here I'll add pics as I start this undertaking thanks

Re: newbie
Hey Lambo welcome to the forum. Looking forward to seeing pics of the 77'. Is the lambo countach prova a clone kit car? I wouldn't mind seeing some pics of it to.
Oh and just a reminder for all you guys thinking about putting lambo doors on your Fiats...
It won't work I've already tried

Re: newbie
I found a totally legit way to get free lambo doors on Youtube. Here's the link.

Re: lambo doors
I don't really care for lambo dorors on anything other than a lambo, and sissor doors arn't gullwing doors. I've got the project with the lambo doors,, several years in the making... getting ready to put a 3800 gtp engine in it soon.. Now that would be a good engine swap for the fiat. I plan on keeping the fiat close to stock I would love to fender flair it 3 or 4 inches all the way around maybe some side exhaust like on the a/c cobra,, maybe a 250 calf dash,, get rid of the bumpers possibly split bumpers in the back and cobra pegs in the front. and fiberglass a cowl for behind the seats,, maybe design and build a fiberglass hard top I haven't seen a good one yet...if I can figure out how to post a pic heres a pic of my countach,, my brother has promised to paint this spring,, I'll be posting pics of the fiat next week after I pick up the car.. Thanks for the comments Dwight ]
Re: posting pics
I didn't realize pics were so difficult to post,, I thought you could post them straight for my computer,, instead of going to another web site first,, wow
Re: newbie
What I do is upload them to http://imageshack.us/, and then just post the "Direct Link" that it gives you. If it's a big image, there's also a resizing option they provide for Message Boards that will make it just the right size to fit on a board post.
Re: pics posted I think
I think I've figured out the pic thing http://img705.imageshack.us/i/lambo001. ... car085.jpg or maybe not. I put the above link between the img square and this is as far as I get the pic still doesn't post on here...

Re: newbie
There you go. If you use the Direct Link that it gives you and then but it between these tags it'll show up in the post directly.
For example, if I post an image of that car will show up directly in the post.
Just got this image off of a Google search.
For example, if I post
Code: Select all

Re: newbie
Yes, but you have to insert them one at a time. I use photobucket, and I resize them down to about 1/2 size so the photo doesn't run off the page. I just "copy" the IMG code, then "paste" it in my message. No need to use the gray buttons at the top of the new message box.
