Unfortunately, we cannot ask everyone to be generous with words in describing the car being sold, but it would be appropriate to at least give the main information. On the other hand it is also true that if the car is very particular, fewer words are needed because the interest of the potential buyer has… Read More Synthetic description: 1956 Fiat 1900 Granluce Coupé
It is not easy to find a classic car that is sold new and has remained in the same city, or at least around it. The above is the brief history of this Fiat 600 bodied by Viotti in the “Granluce” version: not rare and not even as beautiful as its sister Coupé, but certainly… Read More Same place, different car: 1962 Fiat 600 Granluce by Viotti
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
The other time it was white, this time has a two-tone paint job: blue with a white roof, it’s certainly very elegant. Obviously it remains a very small car: it was even 60 years ago, so today it seems almost a pedal car, especially if you put it alongside a common utility car of our… Read More Blue outside: 1957 Fiat 600 Granluce by Viotti
Everyone (or almost everyone) loves small Fiat, especially if done in limited series by the large body shops on the market in the 50s and 60s. One of the smallest produced in the 50s was the Fiat 600 by Viotti, one of the largest Turin body shops that, among other things, also worked as a… Read More Red inside: 1957 Fiat 600 Granluce by Viotti
Few cars built, fine finishes, based on a Fiat chassis and engine: it is the typical identikit of Italian custom-built cars from the 40s, 50s and 60s. This identikit is also true for this creature of one of the most famous Italian coachbuilders, Vittorino Viotti, certainly not as famous as Pininfarina, Bertone or Vignale, but… Read More Little big coachbuilt: 1960 Fiat 600 “Granluce” by Viotti
Although not big as they were used in the U.S. cars, also Italian designers adopted the use of fins on many italian cars: Vignale was the master in this fashion but even others less known designers like Viotti didn’t disdain to put them on his coachbuilt cars. This coupè was bult, needless to say, on… Read More Pure fifties: 1959 Fiat 1200 Gran Turismo by Viotti
More than a proper coupé this Granluce (something like “great light”) is basically a two door sedan: actually back in the early fifties this was the cutting edge Fiat model just after, of course, the 8V. And few knows that this car was originally designed to be pushed by the famous 8V Fiat engine, mostly because… Read More Panoramic view: 1954 Fiat 1900 “Granluce” Coupé
