Other detail works...
The horn. The one provided was really ugly so I decided to build it from scratch
On the left the Hachette version, on the right... mine
And there is the horn in place in the front of the car, near to brake master cylinder and the steering mechanism.
Going inside... this is the ash tray that I have detailed with the cigarette holder.
The pedals, accurately consumed by years of use. Very typical the little accelerator pedal on the right.
Another very typical feature well known by any 500 user: the manual water pump for the windshield cleaning nozzles.
Another detail added to recreate the correct "feeling" to the cockpit.
Going to the front lid: the turn indicator device (left) the fuse box provided by Hachette (center) and my version (right). The cables are painted according to original FIAT electric schemes...
The fuse box in its definitive collocation near to brake fluid reservoir (below) and wiper motor (up)
The FIAT immatriculation plate. Another little but important detail ignored by Hachette.
...and, finally, a general view of the front lid arrangement. In the center the fuel tank, on the left the jack, the tool box, an old rag (never forget it when you drive old cars) and, at the far right, the plastic bag that contained the water for the windshield cleaning circuit.
thats indeed a verry nice and realistic engine.
