When the topic of an Italian automobile arrives, it is usually scripted around fast, expensive supercars, but any true Italian automotive enthusiast that you might come across is guaranteed to have a smile on their face upon sight of this car. The Fiat 500, although not as ferocious as some of its compatriots, is one of the most famous and influential Italian vehicles of all time. Its reasonable pricing and practicality made it a crowd favorite, and it just happens to be a joy to drive. Today, the Fiat 500 is a real collector's piece in even the biggest car collections, and having the chance to purchase one like this which has been replaced with all original parts is an occasion. With just 1,700 miles since it’s rebuild, this 1968 Fiat 500 seeks a new home.
Yes, the Fiat 500 is a very small car that weighs under 500kg, but there's no denying its charm. Simple, distinguished, and timeless. True, the 500 may not look as meaty and aggressive as it’s natural rival, the British Mini, but that was never its purpose. This car was designed to rule the urban jungle, and this it did perfectly. This specific 1968 Fiat 500, with all of its new parts, such as its charming chrome bumpers, perfectly round headlights, and cherry red paint job, takes you back to 1957 when this car was first seen in a Fiat showroom. It also has brand new louvers on its vents. Surely a car of this size must be the equivalent of sitting inside a tin can, right? Wrong. As mentioned, the Fiat 500 was inspired by practicality, and so its tall roof and flat floor bed due to the engine being rear-mounted made it unusually roomy. The cabin of this example forces you to enjoy post-war practicality, with its exposed body panels, a set of beautiful black leather seats, a contrasting white two-spoke steering wheel. What more could you ask for?
As you can imagine, this 1968 Fiat 500's 599cc rear-mounted engine doesn't produce bucketloads of power. It needs to be really nudged to reach speeds that are considered fast, and with a top speed below 70mph, highway driving isn't really a thing. However, in busy towns and crammed cities, the Fiat 500 does its job.
Classic cars are true masters in the art of charm. A mere drive in one can bring smiles and spark conversations, often driven by curiosity. When in search of a vehicle that exudes charm and allure, it's impossible to overlook Italian automobiles. Bursting with character, iconic design, and captivating features, piloting an Italian car offers an unparalleled experience that cannot be replicated. In the spotlight today is a prime example of Italian automotive history, the 1938 Fiat Topolino Type A. This iconic piece of Italian motoring heritage transports you back to the golden age of automobiles and is complemented by a collection of historical documents and artifacts that enhance its provenance. Even more enticing, the car holds an A-/B+ rating from a certified appraiser, attesting to its quality and value.
The original Fiat 500, a true mobility revolution, captured the hearts of the Italian public when it made its debut in 1957. Measuring under ten feet in length and featuring an economical 500cc twin-cylinder engine tucked away in the tail, this charming city car left an indelible mark not only in Italy but across the globe. In the 2000s, Fiat embraced nostalgia by introducing the retro-modern version in 2007. Now, we present the latest iteration of the Fiat 500, having undergone a facelift in 2016 and continuing to roll off the production line. If you've ever yearned for a modern city car that stands out from its segment peers, cast your gaze upon this 2012 Fiat 500C Pop currently available for sale. With 58,800 miles recorded on the odometer, it offers the coveted convertible roof option for an extra dose of driving enjoyment.
The original Fiat 500 was the Topolino or ‘Little Mouse’ from way back in 1936, a dinky two-door car for the Italian masses. The second generation, also known as the Nuova 500 took over in 1957 and ran until 1975; a much-loved car to this date. Having a hit on their hands, Fiat decided to capitalize on that, and exactly fifty years later in 2007, debuted the Fiat 500 as a city car for the modern world. Amazingly, it’s still in production, fifteen years later. Of course, when you talk Fiat parlance, it’s hard to not remember the famous Abarth variants that were the performance models. The Abarth tag continues as well on select models, such as this 2019 Fiat 500 Abarth with 35,000 miles that we’ve got for sale. Would you like a zesty and zingy Italian car to zip around town with, as well as enjoy spirited country drives in? Here’s your ticket!
The 1971 Fiat 850 Sport Spider was renowned for being cheap and fun to drive. Affordable and good-looking, this Fiat coupe with a rear engine and rear wheel drive system paved its way as the Porsche for much less. The initial iteration is reported to have not met great success when it was first introduced in 1965, but Fiat saw potential. In 1968, their engineers turned things around. The initial 843 cc 4-cylinder engine was enlarged to 903 cc, producing 52 horsepower. While the 850 Sport Spider may not be the fastest sports car, it's known for its excellent handling. Its RR layout enables light and responsive steering, with the independent suspension benefitted road-holding thanks to its modest power. This particular model we have today shares the same story; having clocked a mere 8,055 miles, the current owner has taken good care of this tiny roadster with new parts and upholstery. It is up to date on servicing and is included with the original manual.

This particular car bears just 20,000 original miles and comes to you with quite a few refurbishments and new parts. Why not buy it and make it your weekend de-stress tool? It's also a proper classic and will only appreciate in value over time. Finally, its simplicity means that keeping it in great nick won't cost you an arm and a leg. Let's learn more about this Kentucky-registered car.
The Plymouth Barracuda needs no introduction to fans of the muscle car genre. By 1970 the model was in its third generation and was now based on the E-Body. It may have shared its underpinnings with the Dodge Challenger, but the sheet metal was completely different. Our featured car has been treated to an end-to-end restoration, with the owner reporting a new paint job, new engine, and new transmission. The motor itself has been upgraded with a Blueprint 408ci stroker engine in place, and there’s a host of other tasty upgrades that separate this 1970 Plymouth Barracuda from the herd.
Based on the fourth-generation Dodge Dart, the Swinger was a novel concept. By its fourth generation, the Dodge Dart was considered a compact (or senior compact in marketing speak) car. So the Swinger was, in many ways, a mini-Muscle car, targeted at those who loved performance, but who were perhaps on a tighter budget than others. This resulted in a smaller car, with just as much power as many of its bigger brothers. The car we’re featuring here is powered by a 318ci V8 engine. The owner reports that this is one rare gem, with the car having an original mileage of 98,000 miles. It features a host of new parts, including a new interior.
The Chevrolet Chevelle SS is one of those muscle cars that can literally put hairs on your chest. It’s a special car in any form — be that a painstakingly original example, a meticulously restored car, or something like our featured build: an all-out exercise made to fulfill the dreams of restomod fans around the country. Our featured 1967 Chevy Chevelle SS Convertible doesn’t just look the part. It features a 6.2L supercharged V8 LS3 crate motor that reportedly puts out 590 hp with a few choice modifications. Evidently, this car isn’t for the faint-hearted. But it’s also an exercise in getting everything right, as you’ll see as you read on.
