This rare 1200 TV Trasformabile (Trasformabile in Italian means that it can be transformed from closed to open, a term used until the late 50s 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… Read More From Italy to Cali: 1959 Fiat 1200 TV 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… Read More Flamboyant look: 1958 Fiat 1200 Trasformabile
Indeed, for fans of classic Italian cars this is a gem: there are many (so to speak) in the spider version but very few in the coupé version. In the era of the transformations of standard Fiat cars, in which all the Italian (and not only) coachbuilder craftsmen tried their hand, OSI could not be… Read More Silver pearl: 1960 Fiat 1200S Coupé by OSI
Among the countless applications of the chassis of the Volkswagen Typ 1 (aka Beetle) there was also this: the Apal 1200, with the body strictly made of fiberglass. Apal was a Belgian company, indeed the name is the acronym of “Application Polyester Armé de Liège” (Reinforced Polyester Application of Liege), and only 150 of these… Read More Body only: 1962 Apal 1200
Owning a rare car also means taking on the burden of working with parts that are difficult to find, as in the case of this Viotti. Actually, from the mechanical point of view, this car does not require a lot of effort since the chassis, engine, brakes, suspension are those of a Fiat 1200, produced… Read More The quest for parts: 1958 Fiat 1200 Granluce by Viotti
There is certainly not a long description of this car by its current owner, probably a man of few words. Too bad because this little spider is a fairly rare car, in fact it is a model already published by us on other occasions but often the car was in better condition than this: it… Read More No brakes: 1964 OSI 1200 Spider
There is rarely a car in these conditions, for a very specific reason. The reason is the originality of the car: this Fiat 1200 Spider, one of the best designed spiders and a Fiat icon from the 50s, second only to the 500, has a very correct external appearance, including the black Roma plate (which,… Read More Japanese heart: 1958 Fiat 1200 TV Spider
The seller claims that this is one of the two Moretti 1200 Sport built: a few years ago we certainly saw his twin for sale in the USA: the car in that case was painted dark blue. This specimen, on the other hand, seems to have never left Europe: it was sold new in Belgium… Read More The pale blue twin: 1955 Moretti 1200 Sport
At the beginning we believed that the seller wrote a wrong number about the kms made by this car: actually the seller reiterates in the description that the car has done just 6000 kms from new. If true, this car should have the right to enter into the Guinnes World Records in the “Less driven”… Read More Six thousand kms: 1964 OSI 1200 Cabriolet
