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.
