Not my hood just like the style and maybe one day get to do mine. There are a few post about cutting the bubble out and flipping it over to get this effect.

nice. looks like a more elegant version of an old muscle car hood.

That IS a cool hood on the yellow Fiat.

You could have one like it. I have one I'd sell. It needs the final touches on finishing. All welded up and ready to go. PM me if you want it.

I think Ferrari badges are very tacky on non-Ferrari's. Fiat's are not Ferrari's. Even the one model they collaborated on (Dino) still has Fiat badges on it. We should not be ashamed of our Fiat badges!

The "F" badging/logo is his last name as "Farina" and "Pinin" was his nickname. He combined his name into his company name.

"On May 22nd Battista “Pinin” Farina founded Carrozzeria Pinin Farina in Turin. The company was designed to build special car bodies for individual customers or in small production runs.
The company has one hundred and fifty employees on a covered area of 9250 square meters in corso Trapani.
In June, the following news appear on an automobile periodical: “And now the popular nickname “Pinin” used by the whole of the Turin motoring world when talking about Farina, was officially about to become used throughout the country, as a result of the recent company changes which led to the founding of S.A. Carrozzeria Pinin Farina“.
At the Paris Motor Show Pinin Farina exhibits Lancia, Alfa Romeo, Isotta-Fraschini and Fiat cars."

BTW, Pinan means little. Farini was vertically challenged (like many Italians) hence the nickname.

my new(new to me) 81 fiat is in the sanding and rust removal stage. looking for a radio that fits sould i get a black top and a darker blue ext. paint?

Well if you do that, it will look just like my 77

[bwilson27]

Which do you like better? Lights or no lights?

[MNspiderman]

looks just like my car I like the No lights look. But when i get into the body work on my car I will be installing my fender flares and removing the side lights. But I might just put a little round light behind the front tire. We'll see. I also like the stance of my car. I like cars that sit on the ground too, but I am an 80's guy and I like how it sits up and I especially like the raised white letter tires. Oh FYI. I have 44IDF's, MSD, etc. But off of the header I am running a muffler from a Harley Davidson. It is a direct clamp on 1 3/4 i think. Sounds really good.

I see your in Phoenix. We used to live in Goodyear. I enjoyed scrummaging through the junkyards on the weekend. Seems most were on the south side maybe on a road called Van Buren or maybe Buckeye. Thank god they have pop machines. Ya, I think it was Buckeye. I think Van Buren was run down and sold alot of tires and rims. Its been like 4 years now. can't quite remember.
