Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome spoke Borrani wire wheels, Michelin tires, Marchal headlights.

Condition

Restored in 1990 by Mike Fennel for Don Williams, still with very good paint and chrome. The upholstery is lightly stretched and surface creased. The chassis and engine compartment are older than the paint which was originally green. The left door window is scratched. Represented as the original engine, and pleasingly presented with a solid old restoration showing its quality in its now nearly 30 year old preservation.

Market commentary

Make it green again and this would be a spectacular Fiat, maybe even spectacular enough to bring it the pre-sale estimate range. As it is in Red/Beige it is pedestrian, a quality shown by its desultory reception by the Monaco bidders.
