Mystery: 1946 Fiat 508c
Update 23/9: The car is a unique body made on a Fiat 508c Balilla basis. It was made in 1953. Thank you to Nik on alfabb.com.
Here at Classic Car Hunter, we are astonished sometimes with the amount of cars that Fiat used to produce. Or the amount of Fiat derivatives or etceterinis as they are called. Here is yet another different body based on the Fiat 508c or 1100.
This one has us a bit baffled though. It seems to be some kind of sports tourer because of the third headlight. It is right hand drive. There is a “Z” shape on the side of the front wings. Is this a giveaway that it is some Zagato design? We’re not professional car experts but that Fiat badge on the front grille seems the wrong period.
It is for sale here out of Italy for €7000. It will need a bit of work. We would be very interested to find out more about this car. If you have more info, send it to submit@classiccarhunter.com.
