General description :
This 1953 Fiat Topolino Trasformabile is an extremely charming car wearing a quality older restoration. Burgundy with tan interior, an increasingly collectible micro-car. Convertible versions like this one with a retracting roof (aka the transformable) are among the most desirable and collectible today. Launched in 1936, the new baby Fiat was the smallest mass-produced car of its time designed to bring motoring to the masses. The final iteration of the Topolino, the 500C, ran from 1949 to 1955. This particular example runs but would benefit from servicing before being considered roadworthy. A fun addition to any collection.
1953 Fiat 500 Topolino is listed for sale on ClassicDigest in New York by Gullwing Motor Cars for $19950.

Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino (FIAT to you and I) was founded by Giovanni Agnelli in 1899. Their first car 3 ½ CV had a strong resembledence to contemporary Benz, only 25 examples were built. By 1910 Fiat had established itself as Italia's biggest car manufacturer and expanded to the US, where a new plant was built in Poughkeepsie, NY.
At that time Fiat cars were big and luxurious barges for the wealthy or barking mad racing cars like S76 , The beast of Turin, with its 290HP 28.5-liter, four-cylinder engine.
However, today Fiat is better reknown for its small symphatic peoples carriers, Topolino, 500 "Cinquecento" and 600.
