Fiat - 500 A “Topolino” Giardiniera - 1949

IN RISALTO: • Iconic Fiat 500 A "Topolino" model in Giardiniera (station wagon) version • Italian-origin car registered in 1949 • Cabin preserved with seats and panels in brown vinyl/leather-like material • From a private collection in Rome STORY/PANORAMA: The Fiat 500 A "Topolino" Giardiniera represents one of the most fascinating and functional versions of the famous Turin city car, characterized by the mixed body with wood and metal elements. This example was first registered in Italy on August 10, 1949, the same year as its original production. The car carries Italian plates redone in the era’s black-on-white format with the province Trapani (TP), replacing the original first-registration plates with the province Rome (RM). It comes directly from a Rome collector who has owned it since 2023. BODYWORK/PAINT: The bodywork presents itself in a preserved state in the typical amaranth/bordeaux shade. The paint has been refreshed over the years and shows the natural patina and wear due to time. The underbody and floor remain in the conditions visible in the attached photographic documentation. INTERIOR: The cabin is preserved with its period interiors. The front seats and rear benches are upholstered in brown vinyl/faux leather with contrasting period piping/profile. The door panels and inner sides retain the visible wood trim in good conservational condition. The dashboard is color-matched to the body and equipped with a light-colored two-spoke steering wheel, central gear lever, and integrated circular instrumentation (including the Jaeger oil pressure gauge with a dial cracked by time). MECHANICS: The car is equipped with the 4-cylinder 569 cc engine producing 16 HP, paired to the standard manual transmission. The engine bay is in order, though it shows some superficial rust traces. Having stood still for a long period, the car may require maintenance and a full service before being re-commissioned. DOCUMENTS: The car is supplied with Italian documents in order for ownership transfer. Possibility to arrange home delivery both in Italy and abroad, with costs borne by the buyer. The car is viewable and collectible in Reggio Emilia, by appointment. It is recommended to view the vehicle before making an offer. Costs related to ownership transfer, export documentation, or transport are charged to the buyer.
