Need Source For Sieta Parts
I wasn't sure where to put this but a guy hauled a 1970 Sieta down to my friends garage and wants him to get it going so he can drive it. The car has set over over 23 years and is for the most part in good condition except paint and it needs a clutch and new brakes plus all brake cylinders including the master have rusted out.
Now comes the problem. These cars were built using Fiat engines, it has a 4 cylinder rear engine mounted long ways like you cobra engines are, but the whole motor is just 1' 7' long. We have called Fiat and they say there are no longer any parts available for these cars. I have searched the web for a couple of hours and ran into the same thing. But they show people who are restoring some, so there must be a parts location available. Can anyone give me any idea of where to look. The top and exhaust we can have made here, but the brakes and rums and other mechanical stuff like the clutch I just can't locate anywhere. This is a Sieta Spring by the way.
Thanks,
Ron
