Description
This classic car is for sale on Catawiki. To have more information or to place a bid click on the "BID NOW" button. .This Fiat 120 Autobianchi Giardiniera is a Spiaggina made in the 1990s by a local craftsman in the Sorrento area, in southern Italy, to be used at weddings and on beautiful seafront promenades.
In May 2021, a restoration was completed as the car had started to suffer from the wear and tear of the years.
The car has been stripped of all body parts, restored and reassembled with all new parts.
All chrome, details, rims, dashboard, steering wheel etc. have been restored or bought new.
The car was previously in yellow colour, chosen to pay homage to the famous lemons of Sorrento.
Red colour was visible in a few places, so it was decided to repaint it completely in this beautiful combination with ivory-coloured wheels and details.
The interior is completely new in the original Fiat ochre colour, including the carpet and all custom-made panels.
The electrical system has been completely overhauled, the fuel lines are new with a new tank, all brakes and suspension are new as well as the whole steering box system. The whole engine and gearbox have been serviced.
The tyres are new with real whitewall, expensive but beautiful.
Look at the photos and details: great care was taken to disassemble and restore it; the photos on the lift, all chrome plating, details and seals show how much work and passion went into restoring all the details.
This Spiaggina is ready to be used and drives nicely, with a solid steering wheel; the engine runs very well with a pleasant round sound and the gearbox engages smoothly.
Inspection passed, valid until June 2023.
