Azzurro Metallico. [ATTACH]
Hi Stefan, glad you decided to rebuild it. You just need to find a body shop that will do it for less. 16K sounds too much. I'm sure my local...
Mine's an early 83 QV with a black 2v plenum. It has a QV centre console but 2v door cards. Apparently the used up Mondial 8 parts on the early QVs.
Hi MvT, We're in Lucca. The city is completely enclosed by medieval walls wide enough to drive around and the Mille Miglia cars usually do a lap...

Congratulations, looks fabulous.
The longest Mondial rebuild ever is finally coming to an end. After 2.5 years I've nearly got my car back. Except its very wintry here in...
I've lost a few things down there. I've never managed to find anything.
Beautiful. Well done.
