1936 Fiat 508 Balilla

- Great potential as a simple tuning project
The Attractions
Fiat began producing compact cars long before the advent of the New 500 in 1957. One of its most successful pre-war models was the 508, which aimed to offer high quality and features at an affordable price.
While some 113,000 were produced, a high number by the standards of the time, few remain, especially in such excellent condition as this example, which has undergone a complete restoration. For the past year it has been carefully stored and not used on the road. Despite this, we have been assured that all documents are in order, and the engine is running. This makes it an easy project to restore, very interesting for classic car enthusiasts.
