"Cinquecento" 1965 FIAT 500
 

Hey Guys. Im back, sorry been gone for awhile. As most of you know Im living in Italy now, and in a TINY apartment. I don't really have any space to set up a space of my own for RC so I haven't really been able to mess with that stuff. However, Im starting a bigger project this year... Yup a 1:1 Restoring a 1965 Fiat 500, or as we call them her a "Cinquecento" (chink-way-chen-toe) that's Itallian for Five Hundred if you didn't know.

This will be a complete restore.. top to bottom, inside and out on a 500 that's probably been sitting for a decade. Ill be picking it up within the next week and a half and Ill get some actual photos of her up then. I was just to anxious to get post this so I couldn't wait. So anyway here's just a random photo of a 1965 Fiat 500 "F" Series to hold you over. I have been wanting to get one of these for about 11 years when first visited Italy back in 2000, I just didn't have the $$$ back then.

Let me know what you guys think.
