This 1951 Fiat 500C Topolino was imported to the US from Italy by the seller one year ago following restoration work which included a repaint in blue, refreshments of the braking and suspension systems, reupholstered tan vinyl seating surfaces, as well as rebuilds of the engine and gearbox. The car is finished in blue with a black vinyl top and is powered by a 569cc inline-four paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox. This Topolino is now offered with a Georgia registration in the seller’s name. The car was repainted in blue and reportedly fitted with a new black vinyl convertible top during the restoration. The color matched steel wheels were refurbished and include Fiat branded center-caps and fresh tires according to the seller. The Topolino is fitted with an independent front suspension, along with a solid rear axle with transverse leaf springs and hydraulic drum brakes. The interior is upholstered in tan vinyl and features a contrasting blue-painted dashboard, as well as rubberized flooring. The rear compartment is pictured in the gallery below and contains a full-size spare wheel and tire. The odometer currently displays just over 41k kilometers (~25k miles), though true mileage is unknown. Power comes from a 569cc overhead valve inline-four mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox. According to the seller, the motor and transmission were rebuilt under previous ownership. Additional underbody photos are viewable in the gallery below and show the condition of the exhaust system, axles, and suspension components. The car is sold with Georgia registration in the seller’s name, as the state does not issue titles for vehicles of this age.
