Hi! I have a 1966 Bellet sedan, but have some problems with spare parts. My car is the only Bellet in Estonia, so it's not easy to find spares. First and main problem is rear lights, one of mine is broken. If anyone has a spare pair of 1963-1966 rear lights, I would be iterested. Waiting for offers mainly from Europe (Finland, Sweden) or Australia, but if shipping to Estonia is OK, then other regions would be OK too. My location is in Europe, but I have a contact person in Mackay, Queensland, so the shipping could be done through him. List of other spare parts needed, also waiting for offers: Mirrors (inside and outside) Windscreen washer tank Front lights (High beam) Reverse lights Blank keys

I don't have pics of the broken left taillight at the moment. Right one has some cracks and it actually looks a bit worn too. On the pic it's wet, therefore looks OK. Left one is broken. If I could just replace the left one, it would be OK to get the car inspected, but for the better look, I would prefer the lights equally worn. Some pics on the car: And here is one of the broken key. It works, but needs to be replaced. Anyone has a blank key for 1960.-s Isuzu?

Thanks! The car actually looks better on pics than in real life. Fortunatly not much rust problems, but the paintjob has been done by drunk one-eyed sailor. Still have lot of work to do, as the car hasn't been on streets since last century. But I like that it's built really simple, no over-engineering. One stupid question came up today: Where is the turn signal relay located? Picture of the broken tail-light.

I can be found in Facebook by the name Martti Suur.
I didn't quite understand your post about washer tank etc. I have the washer pump, but no tank.
What about the rear view mirror?

The plastic bag sits on the right side hooks into 2 angle hooks on the body. Maybe yours is on the left under the horn

Cheers davo how'd you go with the headlights ?? Cheers dsve OK, good to know there are not supposed to be any covers on B-pillars. I know the door handles should be upwards, I don't know why they are put like that on my car. I'll see about the key later today. I'm afraid your key has too deep cuts in it. Suppose I could use it, if I change the lock a bit (I don't know the english term, the moving parts that avoid turning the lock without correct key). I will see, what parts I can get from Finland, it would be easier and faster to get parts from there I suppose. But thanks for your help.

Got the turn signals today. The blinker relay needs to be replaced, but the switch works. Some wires in the front need to be fixed but that should be piece of cake.
Wiper drive is still stuck. Seems I need to take off the dashboard to get closer.
Main goal is to clean up the bottom ASAP, to give it some rust protection.
