Description
Fiat & Abarth 500 & 600 covers all the classic ‘baby’ Fiats, from the famous Topolino onwards: here is their full and eventful story.
Synopsis
Always big on character and charm, Fiat’s little cars played an important international roll in providing affordable and practical private transport for millions who had previously thought their dream impossible.
With particular emphasis on the now classic 600 and Nuova 500 cars, this book tells the full story of these ‘baby’ Fiats. Built, and exported to, many countries outside of the marque’s native Italy, over 6.5 million Topolinos, 600s and Nuova 500s were sold, and an amazing number survive to this today. Also covered are the wonderful models built on these cars’ tiny chassis by Italy’s leading coachbuilders, and the motorsport success achieved by the Abarth versions of the little cars that everybody loves.
Additional Information
Includes appendices covering Clubs, suppliers and specialists, production figures, and specifications.
