Garage stored since 1979
Reported by the vendor to be totally original, including rubber mats
Engine, brakes, clutch and fuel system all reconditioned
Private registration plate included in the sale
The Appeal
The Fiat 500c Belvedere is among the most coveted variants of the Cinquecento family. As the estate-bodied version of the 500c, the Belvedere combined the character of Fiat's iconic city car with a more versatile silhouette and a folding fabric roof, making for a great day-to-day driver and a perfect car for little rural businesses. In many ways, it's amongst the most eminently usable of the 500c's lineage - and it just plain looks lovely, too.
This 1960 example, finished in green, was originally imported from Germany and is now registered on UK plates. The V5C records no former registered keepers, and the vendor states it has been garage-stored since its purchase in 1979.
Significant mechanical reconditioning has been carried out, as detailed below. The exterior has been renovated with the body removed from the chassis, and the vendor describes the bodywork as sound, though notes the paintwork would benefit from further attention. image.png1.62 MB
