Just closing the door is not going according to plan. I will probably have to buy a soft rubber (seal) so that the door closes nicely. Everything else is arranged ...

I just attach the seats and it can be driven

The original is the 1100 model. A little modification to make the 1300GT replica. 

The engine is a 1300, with a Weber 32/36 carburetor, 4-2-1 exhaust manifold. Only the camshaft is missing. 

Inside, I replaced the dashboard. From 2 dial to 6 dial

That's fairly common with reproduction door seals, they're just a bit too thick and stop the door closing nicely.
