So the Gantry has its own car!
It was feeling left out so we’ve treated it to its very own little motor, and to stay true to form it’s broken and unreliable just like many of the customers cars, so it should fit right in!
It’s a 2013 Abarth 595 competizione with a broken turbo that has spent the last 18 months being swallowed by an ever growing hedge! (Like something out of Jumanji)
The plans are simple.. brake overhaul with shiny new discs, HEL Performance | Official braided lines, MOTUL UK 660 fluid, and some fruity pads from Freddy . The plan is to use the smaller Bosch setup, hopefully it’s enough for some lighthearted TF driving, if not it will get swapped out for the bigger brembo setup.
Semi slicks are coming too!
But the first job is to pull off the turbo and see what’s lurking inside, rebuild or replace and it should be good to go!
Once it’s registered we can try it out and see if the suspension is man enough or not!
We will keep the progress documented on here like an old forum post that you can ignore because you hate fiats or read and laugh at the stupidity.
(It’s not a rental!)
