1954 Fiat 500C Belvedere

Highlights

  • Owned by the current owner for about 40 years
  • Regularly registered and registered in Italy with its original number plate
  • Has never suffered significant damage or accidents
  • Original owner's manual, spare wheel and original jack included

The Appeal

The Fiat 500C Belvedere is a classic Italian car that perfectly represents the spirit of the 1950s. Although the Topolino model did not achieve the same enormous impact on popular culture as its successor, there is no denying that it was a remarkable success, nor that it laid the foundations for its heirs, who reintroduced its essential characteristics - it was among the smallest cars in the world at the time, and was produced with very few changes from 1936 to 1955.
This particular example has remained with its current owner for around 40 years, and has been the subject of great care and careful preservation throughout this time. The car is entered in the Fiat historic register, still has its original Italian number plate and - in our opinion - looks a very desirable car awaiting its new owner.
