The Appeal
Few classics maximise space quite like the Giardiniera. From the 500’s compact dimensions, Fiat somehow fashioned a surprisingly spacious estate car with four seats and a decent-sized boot.
These cars make great classics or mobile business advertising boards. This Coral Red ‘71 is a complete, running car with bags of potential. For the right buyer, it offers the chance to take its originality in whichever direction they want—whether that’s light tidying that keeps the character, or a full restoration. Whatever its future holds, we wish this characterful classic all the best on its next journey.
The vendor says:
“It’s roadworthy with all paperwork in order. It obviously needs restoration, but it can be driven without any problems. To get it into the best possible condition, you just need to replace the left and right floor panels. Below the door and beneath the battery, the car is exactly as shown in the photos.”
