    Hi Lino,
    Mee too had a problem with a rear window motor, I had to change it and my mechanic had some trouble to find a new one. I think it’s the same as the Autobianchi A112 or as the first Fiat Uno, I don’t remember (what do you mean for Fiat Hugo? I never heard about it, in Italy it never existed).
    Strange it may seems, Italy is not the best place to find vintage Ferrari spare parts. Here every enthusiast looks for in UK where there are some specialized distributors who send parts all over Europe. I don’t know if they deliver in Canada, but you can try. Here you find some internet addresses to which Italian enthusiast use to apply:

    Good luck
    Roberto

    Superformance sells/ships to Canada, I know for sure.
    I dealt with Eurospares too but only when I was living in Germany.

    I purchased rear wheel bearings from Superformance and found service very quick and shipping costs very reasonable (via air mail - no tax, no duty). I paid much less for the bearings including shipping from UK than for the F106 key needed to remove the rear wheel hubs purchased from USA.

    On that note:

    BEWARE of UPS shipments!!! The shipping charge from USA is about $25, PLUS then they nail you for $40 "customs clearance fee" and another $16 for sales tax. This happened to me several times. One time I paid the "customs clearance fee" twice because an item of my purchase was back-ordered! I will NEVER purchase another item from USA if shipping via UPS is the only choice.

    Whew...venting complete and I feel much better now...:)
