From Italy to Cali: 1959 Fiat 1200 TV Trasformabile
This rare 1200 TV Trasformabile (Trasformabile in Italian means that it can be transformed from closed to open, a term used until the late 60s when it was replaced by “Spider”) has been in California for a long time, as evidenced by its black license plate with yellow letters and numbers. However, we do not know if it was sold new in the USA or imported in the 60s. The fact remains that this is…
Flamboyant look: 1958 Fiat 1200 Trasformabile
We’re in the middle of summer so posting two spiders for two consecutive posts won’t shock anyone. Once again it is an Italian car, a Fiat built in a period in which Fiat knew how to build cars, cars that could often overshadow much more prestigious brands, also because the production range varied from the small utility car to the luxury sedan/coupé. Unfortunately, when the number guys are put…

Seven made: 1939 Fiat 500B Cabriolet by Scaglietti
Seven made: 1939 Fiat 500B Cabriolet by Scaglietti
The last century was – despite everything – a forge of immense creativity, both from a scientific and artistic point of view and today we still benefit and develop from what our fathers / mothers and grandparents / grandmothers did. Of course we deal with classic cars so our references remain in this area: one of these is Sergio Scaglietti who seems to be the creator of the special bodywork of…

Spotted cabriolet: 1951 Siata Amica
Spotted cabriolet: 1951 Siata Amica
Here is a small convertible that will certainly not make you feel the thrill of speed but it will still make anyone’s head turn when you drive it on the street. We have published others in the past: some in very good condition, some so-so, others still in desperate condition, however they are small cars, basic in their set-up and operation, and are therefore relatively easy to restore: the term…

Winemaker's car: 1949 Fiat 1100 B Convertibile by Farina
Winemaker’s car: 1949 Fiat 1100 B Convertibile by Farina
This special Fiat has been under our radar for a long time, certainly since it was on sale in Italy six or seven years ago: it is rare and it is very beautiful. It is also very similar to the Ferrari 166 cabriolet built by Farina coachworks in the same year, so much so that it is said that Enzo Ferrari himself went to complain to the Farina brothers during the Turin show of that year for the…

Almost blue: 1948 Fiat 1500 Trasformabile by Monviso
Almost blue: 1948 Fiat 1500 Trasformabile by Monviso
The Monviso body shop was not new to the standard Fiat modification, to create special cars for those wealthy customers who wanted to stand out from the crowd.
Clearly Monviso was one of the dozens of Italian bodyshops that dedicated themselves to this kind of work, but it was one of the largest and in fact it often happened that they saw their cars for sale, in particular the “Stella Alpina”…

Carrozzerie Speciali: 1948 Fiat 1100 B Trasformabile
Carrozzerie Speciali: 1948 Fiat 1100 B Trasformabile
If it is true that we like the small Fiat Berlinetta built in the 40s and 50s, it is also true that the convertibles built in the same period have their dignity of publication.
This is the case of this 1100 B convertible (at the time called “Trasformabile”) built in small series by Fiat itself in a department called “Carrozzerie Speciali” (“Special Coachworks”), so to speak is the same…

A special one: 1939 Fiat 1500 6C Trasformabile by Viotti
A special one: 1939 Fiat 1500 6C Trasformabile by Viotti
Where there is a special car for sale, our task is to signal it also because it often happens that we will not see others for years.
This is the case of this beautiful Fiat 1500 6C Trasformabile (the name used at the time in Italy to identify the convertibles) that already a car rare in itself, this one is even more rare because it was customized by Viotti coachworks, one of the biggest names…
