SUMMARY

Beautifully restored classic baby Fiat in need of a new home

DESCRIPTION

  • Dating from June 1970, this baby Fiat proved hard to resist for the car's previous owner
  • With the possibility of an extended return trip to the UK in mind, she commissioned its restoration in Italy
  • When finished, she drove her new 'baby' back and the trip was all she had hoped it would be
  • Lovely restoration in Bianco with a red and white interior and a red sunroof
  • Great attention to detail. Tidy engine bay. Correct upholstery and switchgear. Bespoke luggage rack
  • Ostensibly, restoring a 500 should be easy but, to reach this standard, it's best done in Italy by a passionate craftsman
The Fiat 500 was produced by Fiat S.p.A (Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino) between 1957 and 1975 and was designed by Dante Giacosa. Despite its diminutive size, the 500 proved to be an enormously practical and popular vehicle throughout Europe and captured the hearts and minds of the public until production ended in 1975. Launched as the Nuova (new) 500 in July 1957 it was marketed as a cheap and practical town car. Measuring only 3 metres long, and originally powered by a 479 cc two-cylinder, air-cooled engine, the 500 redefined the term
