There is no such thing as a 1958 600d; the 600d debutted in 1960. You either have a 1958 600 (no "d"), or a later-year 600d.

  You first need to define if you have a 600 or 600d, as they have different engine, gearbox & rear suspension/brakes. Some parts you keep, others you replace. Also, which model of Abarth are you wanting to "upgrade" your car to? 750? 850TC? (Stradale or Corsa?) 1000TC? 1000TCR? All have different specs & thus different parts & trim.
