Old Car

By bobbyl
Found this old car rotting away near the centre of Panjim in Goa. I'm guessing this is an old Fiat car which with the Ambasador car which were very popular in India till the 90's . Now India is flooded with all types of cars from all over the world.

Well spotted & captured....I remember taking a taxi in Delhi to the airport in an old Ambassador with no A/C but now it is Metro trains all the way. The Hindustan Ambassador cars were modeled after the Morris Oxford series & not the Fiat which are Italian. Here is a link for further explanation:
