Was just surprised since it was in a bad state,having seen and read it's restoration thread and the amount of effort taken!

Dear Impala59 - a good wash, scrub and polish on the body and chrome should see it shining again.

Best regards,

Travancore, that's a lovely picture. Even though I'm a die hard Mumbaiite, I'm having difficulty in recognising this locality!

By the way- Mumbai Fiat guys- please update about the annual meet/ rally.

The art deco building on the right seems to be the New India Assurance Company H.O. building (D.N.Road ?).

Nice picture could not stop looking. I must say the area has changed quite a bit. What do you think is the second car parked from the New india assurance building a mid 30's to late 30's car that appears to be a convertible.

Hey, I could finally place the first picture. This building is bang opposite HSBC bank at Flora fountain. Notice the 'Fountain Hotel' sign on the extreme left.

Co-incidentally, the parking lot adjacent to the one with the Fiat, is where we usually have our Mumbai FCCCI annual mega-meet !

10 Years!! Yes, that’s how long it has been since a bunch of enthusiasts came together at a small restaurant in Bombay on Sunday, 12th August 2007, to create the Fiat Classic Car Club of India-Mumbai chapter on a rainy Sunday morning, August 12, 2007.

And to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the FCCCI-Mumbai, we welcome you to join in with us for a get together and dinner at Barbeque Nation, Atria Mall in Worli at 7 pm.
Food has always been an integral part of the Fiat Family and we can think of no better way of celebrating that, to discuss some Fiats over a scrumptious dinner!
So please bring your Family along and lets have a merry night to celebrate this important milestone in the club’s history!

The rocking evening of Saturday, 12th August 2017 at the Barbeque Nation, Atria Mall, with all its members will be cherished in FCCCI - Mumbai history.
The turn out was great and everybody had a blast celebrating with the 5 F's of the club - Fiat, Family/Friends, Food, Fotos and Fun.
Our veteran and most dedicated Fiat enthusiast, late Mr. Behram Dhabbar, (Cyrus' Dad) of the 10 year old Club, was truly missed by one and all, who was instrumental in guiding most members and other Fiat enthusiasts all over the country in totality, in maintaining the Fiat heritage.
