Description
The Classic Car Company is delighted to offer another of these cracking little Fiat 500Ds.
Fiat produced their iconic 'suicide door' 500 D from 1960 - 1965. This was also available with the 'Transformable roof' which folds all the way back down to the engine bay.
This combination of fully convertible roof and suicide doors is rare now, and has become the most collectable version of the 500.
This particular example was built in 1960, and first delivered to The Netherlands. The car was totally restored in 2015, with the following work was carried out:
- Full, glass out, re-spray in 233 Bianco
- Rebuilt 649cc engine and synchromesh gearbox
- Underside stripped and protected
- Rebuilt Brakes and Running gear
- Rebuilt electrics with alternator
- New interior
- New roof
The car has covered around 2, 700 KMs since the restoration, and was part of The Goodwood Revival celebrations in 2017. It remains in excellent condition having been cherished by its only UK owner. It has just (June 2019) had a full service, so is ready to be driven and enjoyed.
A chance to own an appreciating classic that brings a smile to whoever comes into contact with it!
