Autoblinda 41 restoration
Hi Gents. I just wanted to let you all know that I am busy restoring our museums Autoblinda 41, it is a really interesting process so far, I am taking a lot of pictures along the way recording the process. Unfortunately the gearbox is missing the gear shift lever and control box, this is a smallish box that is bolted onto the actual gearbox, otherwise the engine seems pretty complete, it has the magneto, carb and so on. If anyone can put me in touch with someone in Italy that might have spares avialable please let me know. Many thanks.

It should be good!
Auto = Good (it has wheels) Blinda = bloody fast, flash of inspiration. I eagerly await a photo.

Thanks Cliff
She's not bad looking. I thought the Italian vehicles of that era were not very "suave"
I imagine there wouldn't be too many Autoblinda survivors? Stephen, How does an Italian armoured car end up in a South African museum?
