help with 1958 Multipla
Discussion
I’m looking for a little help on my project ’58 Multipla.
I bought the car as a shell (more or less) and it turns out to be missing a few bits that I have been unable to find nearer to my Vancouver home. I’m hoping your larger supply of “scrapped” Fiats will provide a solution.
At some point along the way the clutch/brake pedal assembly disappeared. Can someone tell me if this was unique to the Multipla or used in another application (500, 600 sedan?) and if possible where I might find one! I also need front right side door latch, front indicator light lenses (500?), as well as the hand brake assembly.
Any help with sourcing these parts or names of a good “breakers” yard likely to have them will be greatly appreciated.
cheers (and yes, I am daft)

thanks for the suggestions -
I have already contacted the Club 500 in Italy as it appears to be fairly large and will no doubt have good depth of knowledge in the 600s as well.
After I finish here I'm going to put together a detailed note to Recambi. Had a look at their site and I think it might prove a good resourse.
cheers

I started my Motor Trade Parts Career with a Fiat Dealer back in 1975 (until 1980), during that time I only recall ever seeing one Multipla so rare in the UK is an understatement.
I see Ricambio list the front indicator lamp

Personally I'd think 600D parts are more likely to be common to the Multipla than 500.
We used to buy Parts off Ricambio during my time with Fiat so they have been around a long time.
Thanks - Unfortunately, the lenses of the lights on Ricambio are not those that are on my car.I see Ricambio list the front indicator lamp

FWIW, I have sent them an email but did not have a reply from them.
