81 Zagato parts

[bb4re]

Midwest-Bayless has finally started taking apart our latest Zagato parts car. It has a complete trunk carpet set for $99.99, and below is a link to an entire set of seats with what appear to be recently reupholstered covers in a good quality black vinyl. Someone paid a good penny to have these redone. The stitching is very nice, the foam is in great shape. These are ready to be bolted right in. $399.99 for the whole set. You couldn't get seatcovers alone made for this price.

Just curious but is this not a car that could be restored instead of parted?

I would hope it's not the same car as in their avatar photo. For all we know, the parts car could be rusted out, crash-totaled, blown engine, who knows...

As you may know, Midwest-Bayless Italian Auto is a Fiat/Lancia Parts/Service/Restoration and Performance Modification business, located in Columbus, Ohio. We dismantle cars and resell parts, as well as sell new parts. This particular car is very rough, but ANY car can be restored, as you all know. If some cars weren't retired to become donor vehicles, many Fiat/Lancia owners would not have access to the parts needed to restore...or even just keep our cars on the road. These parts did not come off of my personal 82 Zagato. It's not ready to go out to pasture quite yet. We have the ability to find great parts cars and the facilities and staff to ascertain that these parts are carefully removed, inspected and inventoried at reasonable prices for the enthusiast. We drive the cars we sell parts for. Matt Brannon, the Owner is an internationally reknowned expert in Fiats, and races X1/9s nationally. Most everyone of our staff drive these cars daily. I have owned 2 Zagatos and 7 X1/9s over the years, fom 1983 to present. We are enthusiasts first.

Below is a pic of this particular donor car.

I personally looked this car over, it was not a restorable candidate

Coming from the man who restored a Zagato that had sat half-submerged in a mod bog, I'll take your word for it! :D

@bb4re: How much for that passenger side door mirror? Feel free to PM me if you prefer.
