Fiat Dino Forum (FDF)

Hi, can anyone enlighten me as to the pros and cons of fitting an aftermarket air filter assembly? I have the carbs off for cleaning and was struck by how heavy and overengineered the air cleaner is. It also hides the glorious V6 from view! I have seen some nice period chrome assemblies in the past ...

I'll be sure to take some photos Ed!

Will any Dino folk be at the Gooding & Co Amelia Island sale 4th March? I happen to be in Florida and plan to attend, mainly to drool over Herve’s incredible Spider. Be great to meet up if anyone is in the vicinity.

I'm in Florida on the 4th, if I have time I will get over to Amelia Island and take a look at this beauty in person!

Gunnar, your car is in the hands of the best Dino bodywork guru. It will be perfect when Mark has finished with it.

Nice presentation Herve, epic restoration! Good luck!

Was great to meet you finally at the Revival Tobi!

We didn't manage a gathering of Dinos sadly, but looking forward to seeing Rob K at the Brooklands Italian Car Day in October, and anyone else who can make it.

I didn't know about the weight difference, that is definitely a consideration. Also great points about the relative reliability of originals vs repros. I always learn more from this forum than I contribute. Luckily I have my original wheels, so I still have the choice.

I replaced my wheels with high quality and faithful reproduction rims available from Superformance (and others). I just didn't want to trust my life to 50 year old magnesium alloy that may have lived a tough life. You can always refurbish your original wheels for shows and posterity.

I'm heading over to Silverstone Classic on Satyurday if anyone fancies meeting up.
