Remembering Fiat 1100

Fiat 1100, Model 1971 of Anil Roy (resident of Mumbai) was fully restored in June 2023. 

Barring the two white backlights below the stoplights which never existed in the original, everything else appears to be original. 

Photos of the front facia were not available. 

There used to be round orange indicator lights, approximately 1.5" in diameter on the sides of the front mudguards. The photos are not clear enough to show those.

Skoda sedan repainted from white to canary yellow at Indian Roadie Preferred Workshop in mid 2022

Watch the Skoda luxury sedan which had a white colour and was repainted canary yellow sometime in mid 2022 somewhere in Kolkata. 

Most authorized workshops attached to new car dealers of any brands will never ever be able to do a denting and painting job remotely close to what an Indian Roadie Preferred Workshop in Kolkata does. The speed and price at which they do the work can't be matched by any other workshop. 

Most people harbour a myth about approaching a local multibrand workshop for denting and painting jobs. The objective of this post is to open up your eyes to the reality. 

P.S: Please don't ask me for contact details and location of the workshop. I will flatly refuse to give it to you. Indian Roadie is no more a free ayurvedic kendra for all!

A Honda Civic lying unutilized for quite some time got restored at the Indian Roadie Preferred Workshop in Kolkata on 2021-11-25. 

The owner entrusted the job of changing the bonnet to a fiber one. It was sourced from a scrap merchants godown. The rear spoiler was also sourced from the same scrap merchant. 

An immaculate welding and denting job was done. The earlier colour which was steel grey was scraped off to bare metal and painted red and black as desired by its owner.
