farina body panels for free to good home

Here are some Farina jupiter body bits that I no longer need from my restoration project. A very skilled and ethusiastic bodyman / panel beater might turn this pile of rust into a 5th Farina Jupiter!

It's to hope that the very skilled & enthusiastic bodyman / panel beater has access to a magic wand if he is to turn the parts in the image into another car

Jim - Does this mean that you are making progress with the Farina ? - can you post some images up of the progress so far ?

Well today I helped Jim take the car from the workshop doing the steel and we are now waiting to take it to the aluminium man..

I have many more detailed pictures which I will share on return.

Is this the car in USA that had a Ford V8 queezzed into the engine bay?

[Forumadmin]

Yes. I will try to get James to post pictures of how it was. Spent 7 hrs today with Marty and James sorting the bonnet.

David indeed this is the American Farina Jupiter E0 SA 33 that was well butchered in the late fifties and again in the mid sixties. It had a V/8 Ford 260 with a C4 auto trans stuffed behind the rack and pinion. It was a pile of rust and required a lot of serious chassis and panel restoration to even get it to this point in time. It is still a long way before the bodywork is complete. James Miller

Thanks, seem's odd it was so rusty as it has been in storage for 50 years!
