AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
IN HIGHLIGHT:
• Abarth recreation with customized aesthetics and mechanics
• Engine tuned to 595 cc with Abarth oil sump and synchronized gearbox
• Lowered sport suspension and front disc brakes
• 110F type chassis (VIN: 5139774) and engine type 126A5.000
HISTORY/PANORAMA
Introduced in 1972, the Fiat 500R ("Rinnovata") marked the final chapter of the historic Italian compact car conceived by Dante Giacosa. This version used the 594 cc engine block derived from the new Fiat 126, paired with the classic iconic 500 styling, remaining in production until 1975.
This 1973 example has been prepared in Abarth Recreation configuration. The car shows the chassis marked 110F 5139774 and an identification Fiat badge indicating color code 165 and engine 126A5.000 (5139759). It features sporty aesthetic details such as front hood pins, Abarth logos, sport exhaust, and tinted front headlights.
BODY/PAINT:
The bodywork presents a pearl green coating, subjected to a complete restoration carried out a few years ago. The paint remains in excellent overall condition and shows no notable defects. External details include a kit of new lights with darkened lenses, seals and bumpers well preserved, and a canvas soft top in excellent condition.
INTERIORS:
The cabin is in good preserved condition, with seats upholstered in a camouflage/pied de poule fabric and black vinyl. The dashboard matches the body color and features sport-type Abarth instrumentation and a three-spoke sport steering wheel. The upholstery shows no significant damages or defects to report.
MECHANICS:
The mechanicals are sound and regularly serviced, with no immediate interventions required. The car is equipped with a two-cylinder engine tuned to 595 cc with aluminum Abarth oil sump and sport carburetor with a tubular intake, paired to a manual gearbox with a synchronizer. The suspension and undercarriage benefit from a proper braking system with front discs, lowered sport suspension with new shock absorbers, and tires in excellent condition.
DOCUMENTS:
The vehicle documents are ready for ownership transfer in Italy or for export procedures. The seller is available to arrange shipping throughout Europe. Transport can be organized after the auction is allocated.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road.

Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration.
