Attracting sympathy
The 500 is a world-famous trade name thanks to whom Fiat in internationally popular. As famous as the Beetle or the 911, its fame is such that it has reappeared in recent years in the modern form everyone knows. The very first Fiat Nuova 500 series was presented in Turin in July 1957. It was equipped with an air-cooled vertical twin-cylinder 479 cm³, at the rear, delivering 13 hp. From then on, Fiat increased the capacity of its two-cylinder engine and improved the equipment of the versions that followed in the order of the letters of the alphabet. After the Normal "A", the Sport "B" and the Sunroof "C", the "D" version (simply because it was the 4th version) was unveiled in 1960. Then, at the 1965 Geneva Motor Show, Fiat launched the 500 F (because the letter "E" was attributed to an "America" finish of the 500 D). That one received doors that opened against the wind, an enlarged windshield and an interior with a better finish. The success of the F version made people at that time say that the 500 had reached maturity and convinced Fiat to continue its career with the L and then R versions until 1975.
The car we present is the last series of Fiat 500 produced from 1972 to 1975. It is on the road since November 6th, 1974. It is now in a very good condition, its body has been completely repainted recently and its black imitation leather interior has also been restored. Its odometer shows today 45 850 km. The car is equipped with a Fiat 126 A 1.000 engine associated to a 4 speed manual gearbox. This little convertible works well, whether you are in town or in the countryside, driving it is pleasant and fun, the car is very versatile. Presented today with an attractive estimate, our beautiful example is a great opportunity to acquire one of the greatest legend of Italian production.
