The story behind this collectible...
- The Fiat 6C 1500 Superleggera. Born from the wind. -
Stories, form and feeling. This is what Giovanni has been doing from the very beginning of Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino. And those spirited Italians, they just know how to do that very well. Thus was born the Fiat 6C 1500 Berlinetta. One of the first production cars ever made in a wind tunnel. It was presented together with other members of the 1500 branch at the Paris Motor Show in 1935.
The name 1500 refers to the engine; they are powered by the same engine block, a 1493cc six-in-line with a partially synchronized four-speed transmission mated to it. End result? Silky smooth and for a 1.5, lots of fun! It relaxes, has just a sporty edge and breathes craft.
Our 6C has a fantastic all-aluminum body, provided by Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera. Everything shaped by hand and each body had slightly different shapes or features. So you could say that ours, is completely unique. Her crest nicely contrasts the split windshield with the elegant bulges. She was registered with Registro FIAT Italiano under the number 919 in 1993. Christened a "gold standard" by ASI, she was admitted to the select company by the Mille Miglia. Italian heritage, ready to be locked in a lovers heart. Will we see you soon?
- Form and Function meet. They begin a torrid affair. -
