Fiat 500 F 1966
Key Facts:
In 1965 the Nuova 500 F was presented , heir to the "D", destined to become the version with the highest number of units built over the years. The novelties are above all aesthetic: the most evident is the inversion in the opening of the doors, hinged with 8 screws per door from which the term "eight bolts" which distinguishes the first Fs from March 1965 approximately until November 1965 i. e. with chassis number of just over one million (this version is highly sought after today due to a production lasting "only" 10 months) where we will then move on to the classic hinge with 4 screws per door.
This change, in 1965, was due to the Highway Codewhich imposed the hinging of the front doors for all models, for greater safety. FIAT therefore also adapted the 500 sedan, but not the Giardiniera , which kept the opening unchanged for all production (until 1977), as the Code provided for an exemption for commercial vehicles. Although there is no official data, presumably from December '65 Fiat abandons the configuration of the 8-screw hinges and switches to the standard 4-screw one, which from now on will remain unchanged until the last Fiat 500 produced.
