I wouldnt worry about that mate.

The Italians used 3 types of nuts and 5 types of bolts to assemble the whole car, so you should be safe :lol:

Looking good, bet you can't wait to get going with putting it back together. I had white Sud Ti, the colour was 'biancospino', looked good with contrasting black plastic. Have you painted the bumpers, spoiler etc white as well?

 

[sud_1.5ti]

@Chris i hope so ;-)
@alfasuddriver i'm planning to fit a white series I spoiler at the front. no plastic ti trim on the arches and no spoiler on the tailgate. very pure. bumpers will be black as standard and i removed the lower part of the back bumper to make it look a bit "lighter". a set of ronal a1s in 13 or 15 and thats it ;-)

 

[sud_1.5ti]

front wheel hubs and fuel level senor derusted and freshly painted...
next will be the fuel tank straps

Car looks great By the way !

 

[Supercharged16v]

sure does

Have I mentioned that I LOVE those wheels ?

 

[sud_1.5ti]

thank you guys.
@chris
i like them too, but i sometimes think the 15's are too big for the sud. or the car has to be lowered 50 mm. maybe i will go for the 13's

 

[Supercharged16v]

If you can find tyres for them , why not

What are you planning on ? 205/60 R13 ?

 

[Supercharged16v]

...I think we had this conversation before... you told me 185 ?

 

[sud_1.5ti]

yeah, 185/60/13 is my choice for the 13's

Yes no problem getting those tires here
185/60-13 will gear it down

 

[sud_1.5ti]

got only some small things done at the weekend. derusted and painted the driveshafts.

 

[Supercharged16v]

Will you be dropping the engine in first so you can put the crossmember on and let it stand on its own "feet" ?

 

[sud_1.5ti]

i never did this before, so my plan was: fuel tank, rear axle, wiring, engine, front suspension
is that the right sequence?
