The car you see here comes from the first phase of the first series of the Fiat 600 and is a ‘Contro Ventro' model (‘against the wind') as the doors are rear-hinged and open from the front. Within the doors are mounted sliding windows these were to disappear after 1955 along with other phase one features such as the wing top mounted cast aluminium sidelights that moved to a lower position on the front wings with the 600 D of 1962. Mechanically. this 600 is equipped with a four-speed gearbox with synchromesh on 2 nd. 3 rd and 4 th and hydraulic drum brakes.

This early 600 is a rare machine in the UK and although it requires a complete restoration it offers the enthusiast a great opportunity to revive a survivor that is hard to obtain even in its home country. Parts supplies are excellent with a good specialist market in the UK and many more in Italy
