Looking to see if the 128 sedan (2 door) ever came with the front wheel well covers? I believe the coupe came with them but looking to see if the sedan had them also. Would like to have a finished look on the sedan if they came with them.

thanks

my coupe doesnt have any wheel wells covers (it's a thing that cannot be found on italian cars before late '80s)..anyway i know that some fiats made to be exported in north europe countries had them (fiat 131 of the first '80s)..but i guess in the '70s no wheel covers in any fiat
BTW it' a pitty because these covers are a nice protection against rust..there is a german specialist that make inox(!) wheel wells covers for some old car, including 128s

The late-model 128 Sedan ('77-'78?) had these, maybe earlier 1300 models as well? I have a pair that I rescued from a wrecked 128, never got around to installing them on my own car. I'd offer them up for sale, but due to their size, the shipping cost would be more than they're worth!
 
They don't work well with wider than stock wheels & tires so my sedans are bare but they originally had the plastic liners. Probably started in '74 or '75, I'd have to dig into the parts books...
 
Thanks for the info everyone, good to know that they came with them. I have a 77' rally US version which was a stripped down project so it didn't come with the wheel wells. I am finishing the car up and thought it would be nice to have a set. Parts for the car in this area of the world are next to impossible.
