Description
We are offering this charming 1968 Fiat 500 Giardiniera, showing 95, 168 km on the odometer. Launched in 1960, the Giardiniera is the estate version of the famous little Italian. Conceived by Dante Giacosa, it is distinguished by its twin-cylinder engine mounted horizontally beneath the rear floor, a clever layout that provides a practical and generous loading area. In 1968, it officially adopted the Autobianchi badge and continued in production until 1977. Rarer and more characterful than the classic Fiat 500, it charms today with its timeless appeal and its compact estate silhouette brimming with character. Our example was restored several years ago; unfortunately, we have no service history or paperwork documenting that restoration. Since arriving with us, we have nonetheless given it a cosmetic refresh in our workshops. The interior has been completely redone from A to Z, combining quality vinyl with stunning 1950s-inspired fabrics, in a 'Coco Chanel-style' theme. A local cabinetmaker has bespoke-crafted a beautiful walnut boot floor, adding an artisanal and refined touch to this little Italian right down to the smallest detail. She will be sold with matching bespoke luggage, specially made for her. Also included are some bodywork touch-ups: replacement of the front and rear bumpers, hubcaps, mirror, soft top, door and boot handles, as well as various seals. This vehicle is on a classic-vehicle registration document. She will be serviced in our workshops before sale, so that she is delivered to you in the best possible condition. - More photos available on request or via our social media channels. - Please don't hesitate to get in touch with any questions.
