Fiat 500F Classic - LHD – Restored – Exceptional!

£7. 95

This original & highly desirable ‘round speedo' model is a 500F with its original 499cc engine & is showing a mileage of 54. 75KM (33. 87 Miles). It's LHD. has only had a hand full of owners from new & was manufactured in 1966 at the Fiat factory & sold to its first Italian owner on 19th January 1967. It remained in Northern Italy. in Vicenta. near Lake Garda & 50KM from Venice until April this year when we purchased it from a reputable Italian classic car specialist & brought it to our shores. obtaining full UK registration.

The Italian specialist embarked on a restoration to a very high standard on this original example. which has the original shell along with the original engine previously rebuilt & is by far one of the most honest. straight & original Fiat 500's we have ever come across.

The vehicle underwent a full glass out body repaint in the original Fiat shade of Fiat blu medio (469). Any rust found was professionally dealt with. the floor pans however were found to be original & in excellent shape. We have also further detailed the full vehicle to show standards.

The car looks original & as new. it is no doubt as good as when it left the factory in 1966! This is a collectors opportunity and a superb investment and has only driven less than 1000 KMS since its restoration & hence this cheeky chappy is now registered. MOT'd & being offered for sale!

The Italian restoration included: Complete glass out strip. All panels removed as required & replaced if needed. The structure & floors were found to be excellent. The original interior was also found to be in very good condition & kept to add original character. The engine was previously removed & rebuild by a specialist using all genuine parts along with all other mechanical parts. The petrol tank was refurbished and flushed. The complete door card set & interior trim were refurbished only as required. including the underside of sunroof & roof panel. The original carpet set and other items of interior trim were also found to be in excellent original condition and remain. The lights were changed front and rear. Many rubber items were replaced including the window rubbers as required. All chrome items were replaced including the bumpers & brackets & badges etc. New matching correct Cinturato tyres were also fitted along with a brake overhaul.
