Interchangeability of Flavia parts
Posted: 01 Jan 2012, 13:38
Hello, I'm a new member of this forum, and probably one of the few Finnish ones! I'm currently buying a 2nd gen (819) Flavia Berlina project. The car has been dismantled in parts probably for decades, and it's likely that there will be missing parts. For now on, at least the front bumper and side windows are missing. I've been told, that these parts may be same with Fulvia Berlina? As Fulvia has somewhat smaller body, things may not be that simple?
There are only two Flavia Berlinas in Finland, to my knowledge. The other one is -64 1800 that has been stored outside for some 30 years. Despite that, the body seemed to be in surprisingly good shape (of course there is a good amount of welding anyway), but the interior is completely shot and rubber parts fall in pieces. I tried to buy the poor thing with no luck. The one I'm in process of buying should have a good body (I've only seen some pictures so far), but it will still need a considerable amount of work.
