Lifted Fiat?

Has anyone out there ever lifted their Fiat either for rally use or as a tribute car? I am about to start building the suspension on mine with adjustable coils and longer strut inserts along with adding anti-sway bars. I have a nice set of period correct 14x7" OZ wheels from an Alfa that will be stepped out with adapters and cover by fender flares. I am looking to build it in the fashion of the 911's that use to race in Africa and other rallys.
Does anyone have pictures of what a lifted Fiat looks like, besides the one with the truck frame of course.
Here are some examples of the look I'm going for.

I''ve always thought that would be cool...

to make a bush buggy out of a stripped out X.

All it takes is a set of 128 Sedan or Wagon struts in the front and rear.

Steering would certainly be a "challenge" to get geometry right, but on
gravel who cares, right? You're either sliding or wheel spinning either way.
