Spring break: 1968 Fiat 500F Albarella by Savio
We owe an apology to Federico, our reader who reported this splendid specimen to us ten days ago: unfortunately we missed his email and only noticed it yesterday. We still try to make up for lost time. The car in question is a fantastic and very rare Fiat 500F transformed into a “Spiaggina”, i.e. part… Read More Spring break: 1968 Fiat 500F Albarella by Savio
Computer illiterate: 1964 Fiat 600 Jolly by Ghia
Ok let’s face it right away: we have very little material on which to consider as this vehicle basically has no description. Whoever posted the ad has in fact made it clear that he knows nothing about this car, and that he posted the announcement and the photos to do his “computer illiterate friend” a… Read More Computer illiterate: 1964 Fiat 600 Jolly by Ghia
Mysterious and open: 1956 Fiat 600
We don’t know when this car was built, we don’t know by whom it was built: absolutely not bad as a premise. Unfortunately the seller, or at least the description of the car that he reported in the ad, is not very helpful in identifying the origin of this Fiat 600 with this body so… Read More Mysterious and open: 1956 Fiat 600
Mobile cinema: 1962 Lancia Jolly
We rarely see for sale a Lancia Jolly, the van built by Lancia in the 50s and 60s, and seeing one set up like this is a unique event. Given that we did not even know the possibility of a van being set up in this way, we believe the idea to be very valid,… Read More Mobile cinema: 1962 Lancia Jolly
Beach cruiser: 1963 Autobianchi Bianchina “Jolly”
Nope, this car is not an original Ghia creation but an attempt to recreate these glorious days and the car which run across Italian seasides, often driven by the Jet Set people. It is based on a 1963 Autobianchi Bianchina (chassis #45668 and it is said to be a matching numbers car) which was transformed… Read More Beach cruiser: 1963 Autobianchi Bianchina “Jolly”
Jet-Set summer: 1964 Fiat 600 “Jolly” by Ghia
This is one of the most iconic car of the sixties: jet set personalities like Aristotile Onassis, Giovanni Agnelli and Yul Brinner and many more had one, mostly to load it on their yacht or as kart for their mansions. Now VIPs have other expensive toys, but few of them got the style and refinement of… Read More Jet-Set summer: 1964 Fiat 600 “Jolly” by Ghia
Classy van: 1962 Lancia Super Jolly
This van made by Lancia is the second series of the Jolly breed: the first series shared many mechanical components with the Appia while this one was born on the same basis of the Flavia. Indeed it shares the engine type 815.000 but it was made in scarcer numbers than the car on which is… Read More Classy van: 1962 Lancia Super Jolly
