In case this connection goes in, I have a question: should I connect the next car to Uno Turbo Mk2 exactly or can I use simply Fiat Uno connection?

faksta · « **Reply #551 on:** September 26, 2009, 02:59:07 PM »

OK, I have found another connection, so that question does not matter much now

How about this?
Fiat Uno Turbo Mk2 - Connaught B - both cars officially wore only Pirelli tyres.

Connaught B and what car? why?

DynaMike · « **Reply #557 on:** October 02, 2009, 06:33:18 AM »

Let's try this: Connaught B and 1901 Scania A1 because Her Royal Highness Princess Margaret of Connaught (Margaret Victoria Charlotte Augusta Norah) became by marriage to Prince Gustaf Adolf of Sweden in 1905: Her Royal Highness Princess Margareta of Sweden, Duchess of Scania...

The Isdera uses that part of the Beetle that all other replica builders throw in the bin: the basic structure of the passenger comparment, the doors and rear side windows.
