    Engine

    This 500C is powered by a 569cc overhead valve 4 cilinder engine, water cooled and fitted with a single Weber carburetor.
    This engine has had some rather clever internal modifications for more horsepower and better drivability, do not mistake it for a slow boring car, it is quite the opposite! 
    It's very pleasing original fiat gearbox with competition gear ratios and up rated clutch make it a real joy to drive. Stoping power is delivered by a four wheel hydraulic drum brakes.

    Interior

    The interior is in great condition and seats four. The open roof is great addition on sunny days, only two latches need loosening to open the roof which can be done while inside the car.

    Giardiniera body

    The Fiat 500A made its debut in 1936, quickly becoming one of Italy's most popular cars. The 500B followed in 1948 and brought with it a wooden sided wagon called the Giardiniera, meaning 'gardener.' The 500C was released in 1949 and had a refreshed design. The Giardiniera body style was available on the 500C, but only for two years.​
