Tim

I wasn't joking.
Soo; You're coming!
Soo, I bring a big drill, a chain and a lock for a wooden shed.
Soo, I will fix your doorlock-problem in no time!
You buy me a beer afterwards for the excellent job!
That's where friends are for! B)

Sorry, one is not correct.B)

The front blinkers/park lights of 2.Series Zagato are from an Renault 16

Bart, aha....but from whom did Alfa steel them (or are they chromed plastic) from ? Another Alfa ?

Y'day while visiting Luzzago* & Bresciacar (of course in Brescia) I saw many car doors, Ital & others, but none similar to the 1600 Z handle; I will keep on looking.

* Funny, but all Fulvia were parked outside, under a roof...none were in the showroom ?

reports from both locations "things are slow" !

the reason why Fulvia´s parked outside is : mostly they are running and
it is a mobil not an immobile.B)

ok, it isn't a fulvia, but is is a boxer & mabye this weekend I'll uncover the fulvia Z from chicken-dung & hay bales & drive it to where the below shown little white wisperer (opposite of screamer) is parked & finally measure & compare the headlight surrounds & then we will know (what we know) ..B) whatever that will be......

GAIgoat know what is being said!

Tim

wunce again Tim is correct !!

I have finally 'side-by-side'parked my Z &amp; my Ami8 today &amp; measured the dimensions of the headlight surrounds of an &quot;1each Citroen Ami8 with Fulvia Z headlightss&quot; &amp; an &quot;1each Fulvia Z with Citroen Ami headlights&quot;.

Today was, finally:
&quot;fire up &amp; drive the Z to where the Ami8 is parked&quot; day &amp; &quot;motivate the &quot;detailing task force&quot; to begin detailing the Ami8 for old-car exhibitions &amp; for light road-use&quot; day*&quot;.

*54,oookm - in the hands of a (by now) older woman - in a 35 yr period do not equal much road use per year.
Less than 2,000 for some year for some years and far less per year in recent years.

Results:
Fulvia Z runs fine, as always. Detailing it for 2009 will start next weekend. It hasn't seen use this summer, because we have not had a summer until the last few days !
Ami8 had many little matters attended to today &amp; looks a lot better for it. Also, it smells like sealing-wax inside &amp; outside. It is amazing how much dust old seats trap &amp; how musty the interior of an old car can smell; even when the interior is as dry as an old bone!!

Results of Measuring; Z headlight surrounds are wider &amp; higher that Ami8 headlight surrounds..

Yes, the 'overall-optic' of both is quite similar.

However, the Ami8 fender top, being horizontal, follow the line of the headlight glass horizontal top &amp; bottom line; which looks 'quite proper'.....

Whereas (as you know) the Z fender is a sculptured-pieces of finely folded art work that follows no mans horizontal line, nor any other line.... Aaahhh, how ahhh...ummm; yes, &quot;how delicate&quot; !!!

Hmmm, John

That'll cost you:
Primo: for telling the world the Z has the same headlight surrounds as the Ami
Secundo: for buying an Ami in the first place!
(and Yesssss, I saw TopGear this evening - and Nooo, I still not convinced for buying one!) -D

Needless to say you have to come to the French Weekend! B)
