Fiat - 500 N America - 1959

Fiat - 500 N America, restored in wonderful condition. ASI Targa Oro. Valid inspection. Colour and engine of the first equipment. The roof was modified. It will be delivered with everything you need in case you want to bring it back to the short sunroof. There are no flaws to report. About 4,000 km driven since the restoration. As shown in photos, it has number plates of origin, when the car circulated in America. There is also a report about the authenticity of the car, made by an expert of classic cars of the Milan court. The actual value from the expert’s report is €40,000, given the rarity of the vehicle. The ‘500 America’. From December 1957, the 500s were also imported into the United States by sea with Italterra, arousing great curiosity and strong sympathy among the American public for their small dimensions and for the noise of the small air-cooled twin-cylinder engine. Compared to the versions intended for the domestic market and more generally for Europe, the Nuova 500 Normale, Sport, D and Jolly exported to the United States had large headlights, which gave their noses a nice frog-like look, which actually served to comply with the minimum height of the beam required by the traffic regulations in the United States. Another feature of the American headlights was the so-called ‘sealed beam’ construction, i.e. the classic pull-out bulb to which we are accustomed in Europe, but with the body of the headlight itself, obviously of the sealed type, which served as an ‘ampoule’ with the filament drowned directly in the dish. Also the rear lights changed, which were initially equipped with a support to house the English Lucas lights approved for the USA, then specially built and approved Italian lights. Also the indicators were different and larger. Those in front, round and arranged above the internal ventilation grids, were also made according to American standards, however, a few years later they also appeared on Italian models with a very similar design, but in a different position. In addition to the lights, the ‘America type’ Fiat 500s had other modifications required by American users, such as the speedometer-odometer scale in miles, the inscriptions of the warning lights in English, and the larger bumpers equipped with overriders in order to withstand small impacts since, even then, drivers overseas used to ‘push’ the vehicles in parking lots. However, interest soon faded and imports ended in 1961. Collector’s item! This car can be viewed in Forlì, Italy. We can offer a shipping service throughout Europe and worldwide by partner couriers. Transport quotes will be calculated separately and are not included in the auction winning price.
