1971 FIAT 500L SALOON

Registration Number: JBY 492J
Chassis Number: TBA
Recorded Mileage: 40,300 kilometres

Introduced in July 1957, the 'Nuova 500' was the original city car, with a clever monocoque bodyshell, independent suspension and four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes. Engineered by Dante Giacosa, the newcomer utilised a different mechanical layout to its 'Topolino' predecessor. Its rear-mounted, air-cooled, two-cylinder OHV 479cc engine was a first for Fiat. 

Finished in navy blue with a red vinyl interior, and subject to older restoration, this attractive 500 has been dry-stored in recent years, and will now benefit some recommissioning.

Offered due to the sad passing of the owner, the Fiat will be sold with No Reserve to the highest bidder on the day.
