Cannot figure out if this is a restoration or a very well preserved original Fiat/Seat 500

You see it in art museums too: Masterpieces are there for years; then one day---poof! Back to their original owners. This is a beauty! And your angle makes it look like it's coming at us with attitude---I love your angle! It's like some street dude saying, "you wanna piece of me?" Wonderful shot, Richard. (And that chrome. It's like a gigantic piece of candy!)

knew a guy who was six-foot who used to drive one of these by removing the driver's seat and sitting in the back. Didn't have to stick his head out of the roof though :)

Very beautiful restoration of this perfectly designed little car. It is the SECOND version of the Fiat 500, because the doors open the right way. The first ones had suicide doors. The Fiat 500 were sold in numbers in Italy and France, because they were cheap, easy to park because of their very small size, nevertheless they could transport 4 people… but on the rear seats not of tall size. The rear engine was an air-cooled 2 cylinder. Top speed was ca 95-100 km/h, but preferably one should limit oneself to 85-90km/h otherwise the engine would run too fast and not last long! It was less dangerous than the Renault 4 chevaux and Renault Dauphine, the road-holding of which was worse, and they were prone to burn, killing their people in horrible conditions. Some 15-20 years ago, Fiat launched a new version of Fiat 500, the 500C, bigger in size with the same exquisite design with front engine and front-driven wheels, therefore an excellent road-holding and a very serious and safe body. The renewed model met with a huge success in Europe and is still produced with very little modifications. Bigger versions, the Fiat 500L and 500XL do exist too and have decent sales today. Of course, version with hybrid engines are produced too. Recently, Fiat derived it with a fully electric 500C model.

Chrome GRILLS! (Not trolls - LOL!) Auto “correct” scores again!
